We use an augmented production function approach to examine the relationship between disaggregated energy consumption by fuel type and economic growth in Malaysia. The main finding is that diesel is the major contributor to economic growth in the long run in Malaysia. The long run elasticity for...

This study examines the integration properties of total renewable energy production, as well as production of biofuels and biomass in the United States. To do so we use Lagrange Multiplier (LM) univariate unit root tests with up to two structural breaks. We conclude that each production series...
