SBCA 2022 Annual Conference

We are excited to announce that SBCA 2022 Annual Conference will be held virtually March 17-18 and 21-22, 2022! While we regret that we will not be able to meet in person, we look forward to the opportunity to take advantage of the options available online. The virtual format will allow us to engage speakers and other participants who would not otherwise be able to attend, to record some sessions for later viewing by participants, and to take advantage of the flexibility offered by the online platform more generally.

This year's conference theme is “Analyzing Distributional Consequences and Equity in Benefit-Cost Analysis" with several plenary speakers focusing on the question of how best to handle distributional and equity issues in BCA; however, other sessions will feature all topics related to benefit-cost analysis.

Registration is open. Learn more>>

Members in the News

John Graham and Kerry Krutilla recently co-authored a book published by Cambridge Press in their core elements series in public economics: “Benefit-Cost Analysis of Air Pollution, Energy, and Climate Regulations. The book is open access. The book compares and contrasts Regulatory Impact Assessment in the U.S. and Europe, and addresses five methodology issues: the estimation of costs, including engineering, partial equilibrium, and general equilibrium approaches; the estimation of benefits, with sections on the value of mortality risk reductions and pricing carbon emissions; discounting methods, and their relationship to carbon pricing; distributional analysis, including impacts on workers, producers, consumers, and beneficiaries; and the evaluation of less and more fundamental uncertainty. A perspective on the relevance and limitations of current research is also offered.
