Cost structure and economies of scale in German water supply
Zschille, Michael - 2016
Potable water supply in Germany is highly fragmented. A consolidation of the industry could, therefore, lead to lower cost of water supply and price savings for the customers. In this paper we estimate a total cost function for potable water supply based on a unique sample of German water...

Heterogeneity in the Cost Structure of Water and Sanitation Services : A Cross-Country Comparison of Conditions for Scale Economies
Nauges, Celine; van den Berg, Caroline - 2010
The main purpose of this article is to compare the cost structure of water utilities across a set of 14 countries with different levels of economic development. As far as is known, the cross-country perspective is novel in this literature. This article first provides new measures of returns to...

Heteroskedastic Stochastic Cost Frontier Approach in the Estimation of Cost Efficiency of Tunisian Water Distribution Utilities
ben amor, tawfik - 2022
This article has examined the operating cost inefficiencies and economies of scale of Tunisian public water services. We have examined the stochastic frontier model and the fixed effects model. Thus, as formulated, the inefficiency term remains in the model and the fixed effect is intended only...
