Abstract
Efforts are made to examine the role nuclear energy under the international carbon emissions regulation. To do so, an econometric model for energy demand and supply is developed. Here, several scenarios on the regulation are assumed and then each scenario is analyzed by using this model. This model also makes it Possible to analyze the effect of carbon tax. The results show that share nuclear increases up to 60% in 2020 Instead 45% makes GDP rise by 1.9% while the electricity price lower by 46% in carbon emission regulation.
