Electricity is a general purpose technology and the catalyst for the second industrial revolution. Developing countries … with the length of higher-voltage electricity lines. Instrumenting for electrification using hydroelectric potential, we …

We use city-industry data from 1890 to 1940 to identify the impact of electricity on manufacturing. We exploit cross …-industry variation in pre-electricity energy intensity combined with geographic variation in proximity to early hydroelectric power … plants. Labor productivity gains from the arrival of electricity were rapid and long-lasting. Electricity was labor …

In this paper, we quantify the difference between public and private prices of residential electricity immediately … sample of large, urban markets. Based on new data covering over 15,000 markets and nearly all electricity generated for … typical levels of monthly consumption. These findings are consistent with a market for ownership that helped to discipline …

This paper quantifies and decomposes recent trends in U.S. PM2.5 disparities from the electricity sector using a high …-resolution pollution transport model. Between 2000-2018, PM2.5 concentrations from electricity fell by 89% for the average individual, more … dramatic convergence: since 2000, the Black-White PM2.5 disparity from electricity has narrowed by 95% and the Hispanic …
