Traditional biomass remains a large source of energy in developing countries, particular in rural areas. Use of biomass … improved stoves and to transition households to modern energy carriers. We report on and analyze the results of an energy use … the variables in the two villages there are some robust results. We find modest evidence for the 'energy ladder …

Households may imperfectly implement energy saving measures. This study identifies two factors resulting in imperfect … use of energy-saving technology by households. First, households often continue to use old technologies alongside new ones … when computing marginal energy conservation cost and marginal CO2 abatement cost using data collected from a survey of …

of “energy efficiency,” spanning different aggregations and domains – from individual producing and consuming agents to … economy-wide effects, the role of innovation, and the influence of policy. After 40 years of research, energy efficiency … initiatives are generally perceived as being highly effective. Innovation has contributed to lowering energy technology costs and …

set on energy and economic growth from Sweden spanning 150 years to determine whether increases in energy use and energy … with larger samples are more likely to show that energy causes output growth but it is also possible that the relationship … between energy and growth has changed over time. Energy prices have a significant causal impact on both energy use and output …

Interfuel substitutability has been of longstanding interest to energy economists and policy makers. However, there has …

This study uses a stochastic production frontier to model energy efficiency trends, in 85 countries over a 37 year … and a theoretical model of energy-efficient technology choice. An improvement in a country’s energy efficiency is measured … as a reduction in energy intensity, while holding constant that economy’s mix of inputs and outputs. All other things …

Physics shows that energy is necessary for economic production and, therefore, economic growth but the mainstream … theory of economic growth, except for specialized resource economics models, pays no attention to the role of energy. This …. A possible synthesis of energy-based and mainstream models is presented. This model shows that when energy is scarce it …
