Fuel Efficiency Versus Fuel Substitution in the Transport Sector : An Econometric Analysis

Hochman, Gal - 2017

The transport sector offers limited options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as compared with other sectors, such as … emissions through fuel substitution or transportation service demand reduction, this study estimates own- and cross …-price elasticities of various fuels used for transportation. The analysis shows, like many previous studies, that an increase in fuel …

Switching on Electricity Demand Response : Evidence for German Households

Frondel, Manuel - 2018

Empirical evidence on households' awareness of electricity prices and potentially divergent demand responses to price changes conditional on price knowledge is scant. Using panel data originating from Germany's Residential Energy Consumption Survey (GRECS), we fill this void by employing an...
