To investigate the link between rising global temperature and global energy use, we estimate an energy demand model …-linearities in the impact of temperature on energy demand as well as temperature-income interactions. We find that oil, gas and … electricity use are driven by a non-linear heating effect: Energy use not only decreases with rising temperatures due to a reduced …
