While productivity growth in electricity generation is associated with multiple positive effects from an economic and … environmental perspective, measuring it is challenging. This paper proposes a framework to estimate and decompose productivity … estimation based on stochastic non-smooth envelopment of data (StoNED) allows for productivity estimation with few microeconomic …

As for any other fuels used for transport or heating, the gas price for final users could be split into three major … components: the wholesale price for the resource (including far distance transport by ship or pipeline), taxes and finally a … assorted group of mainly smaller price drivers (such as local transport, storage, marketing costs or retail margins). This …
