The objective of the this study is to present an alternative approach to the current methodology implemented by Aneel for estimating efficiency of the distribution sector of electric energy in Brazil. For this purpose, Bayesian inference is applied in order to estimate a stochastic cost frontier...

This paper presents a brief literature review concerning the costs and benefits of electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles, highlighting their advantages in terms of greenhouse gas emissions reductions. Even though electric and electro-hybrid vehicles must still overcome many cultural and...

This study describes the relationship between GHG emissions and a set of economics and environmental variables in the energy sector of the 27 Brazilian states, during the period 2010 to 2020. The system Generalized Moments Method (system GMM) was used to verify the influence, in particular, of...

This paper applies the dynamic linear model (DLM) estimated based on the Bayesian approach to project electricity consumption for five Brazilian regional units. The appeal for the use of DLM in the case of energy consumption is due to the fact that in this model the adjustment occurs in the unit...

Este trabalho explora a metodologia Input-Output como uma alternativa válida para estudar interacções entre energia, ambiente e actividades económicas, tendo por desígnio a obtenção de resultados susceptíveis de apoiar estratégias e políticas que respeitem e promovam uma gestão...
