We propose a new model of a small open economy with efficient energy use to investigate the inflationary dynamics along the green transition. The model incorporates the production of green energy that substitutes exogenous brown energy sources in production. Production is characterized by...

Algorithms are widely used to guide high-stakes decisions, from medical recommendations to loan approvals. Designers are increasingly optimizing not only for accuracy but also "fairness" i.e. how much accuracy varies across different subgroups. We define and characterize a fairness-accuracy...
