This study aims to estimate electricity demand functions in Japan's industrial and commercial sectors. We adopt data … the demand between the industrial and commercial sector. The results reveal that in both sectors, the price elasticity of … demand is extremely low in the short and long run and production elasticity is greater than price elasticity. Thus, price …

We decompose the sectoral electricity prices to capture the asymmetric demand response to electricity price changes … and estimate electricity demand elasticity during 1980 and 2015 to estimate the sectoral rebound effects. We find partial …

Large but temporary price increases are sometimes deployed on days when the demand for electricity is extremely high …). We exploit variation in tariffs over time and across customers to estimate the price elasticity of electricity demand … changes? Second, is there evidence of heterogeneity in the price elasticity of electricity demand driven by dwelling or …

This paper exploits unique features of a recently introduced tariff schedule for natural gas in Buenos Aires to estimate the short-run impact of price shocks on residential energy utilization. The schedule induces a non-linear and non- monotonic relationship between households’ accumulated...
