Deviations in Kilometres Travelled: The Impact of Different Mobility Futures on Energy Use and Climate
Longden, Thomas - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2012
The importance of a focus on mobility and the kilometres travelled using light duty vehicles is reflected in the persistence of strong demand for personal mobility and emissions that tend to be linked with population and economic growth. Simulation results using the WITCH model show that changes...

Impact of R&D on Productivity - Firm-level Evidence from Finland
Ali-Yrkkö, Jyrki; Maliranta, Mika - Elinkeinoelämän Tutkimuslaitos (ETLA) - 2006
This study analyses how R&D expenditure impacts the productivity of companies. We analyse the productivity impact of R&D using a large panel dataset of Finnish firms over a nine-year period from 1996 to 2004. Our results are two-fold. In the short run (in 1-2 years) we find no statistically...
