We develop a spatial model of energy exploitation where energy sources are differentiated by their geographic location … and energy density. The spatial setting creates a scaling law that magnifies the importance of differences across energy … plays must first boom and then bust. For both renewable and non-renewable energy sources we link the size of exploitation …

by analysing the consequences of becoming an exporter on a firm's energy consumption. We show both theoretically and … relatively large quantities of fuel decrease their energy use after exporting, perhaps by adopting more fuel-effcient technology …

export destinations of Europe and rest of the world (ROW) to establish whether a firm adjusts its energy use in response to a … decision to start exporting to a more (Europe) or a less (ROW) regulated destination. Although on average, no energy … adjustments are found for these destinations, focusing on the most polluting industries or the most energy-intensive firms reveals …

environmental policies that affect prices and energy demand are mainly effective in directing innovation by small specialized firms …

This paper describes the energy sector in the Mediterranean and MENA (Middle East and North Africa) countries. It first … analyses the production of energy by fossil and renewable sources and discusses the increasing demand in the area and its … consequences. It describes the policy frameworks to promote renewable energy as well as fossil-fuel subsidies, which are still …

This paper studies energy bias in technical change. For this purpose, we develop a computable general equilibrium model … that builds on endogenous growth models. The model explicitly captures links between energy, the rate and direction of … solution in which only technologies are developed that are appropriate for production of non-energy intensive goods. …

livelihoods, including energy needs. Using data originally collected for Namibia's forest resource accounts and insights from a … collecting fuelwood, by increasing labour input to collection more than by reducing energy consumption. There is limited evidence … for substitution from fuelwood to other energy sources, particularly with the declining availability of forest stocks. All …

Consumption of energy in the large computing system is an important issue not only because energy sources are depleting … computing platform which consumes enormous energy in the task execution. Energy-aware job scheduling, in the computational grid … energy concern, it is possible to save the energy consumed by the system in the task execution. The prime objective, in this …
