. A convergence analysis reveals that only after 1995 cross-country variation in aggregate energy intensity levels clearly … tends to decrease, driven by a strong and robust trend break in Manufacturing and enhanced convergence in Services. Moreover … rates of convergence that are on average higher in Services than in Manufacturing. Aggregate convergence patterns are almost …

This empirical paper tests for trade-facilitated spillovers in the convergence of energy productivity across 16 … potential for convergence in energy productivity. Conversely, by inducing competition and knowledge diffusion, trade may spur … sectors to greater energy productivity.
