Placebo estimates for specification (iii). Notes: The figure shows the pre-tax fits and the post-tax effects for Basel and other cities which did not actually introduce an electricity tax. Panel A includes 31 other cities for which we can approximate pre-tax electricity consumption. The approximation is infeasible for Locarno. Further, Davos and Mendrisio are left out of the figure because they are too far out. Panel B includes 14 cities with at most twice Basel’s pre-tax root mean squared prediction error
