The purpose of this paper is to introduce a modification of a standard four input production process where energy is … used in an inefficient way due to partly unnecessary waste of energy. In this production process, R&D investment is an … additional input in order to improve energy efficiency. It closes the gap between energy purchased and energy used effectively …
