This paper examines local labor market outcomes from an oil and gas boom in Texas. We examine two main outcomes across gender, race, and ethnicity: the probability of employment in the oil and gas industry and the log wages of workers employed outside the oil and gas industry. We find that men...

This paper studies energy bias in technical change. For this purpose, we develop a computable general equilibrium model … that builds on endogenous growth models. The model explicitly captures links between energy, the rate and direction of … solution in which only technologies are developed that are appropriate for production of non-energy intensive goods. …

Future energy demand will be affected by changes in prices and income, but also by other factors, like temperature … annual regional demand for energy goods. Combining estimates of temperature elasticities with scenarios of future climate … change, it is possible to assess variations in energy demand induced (directly) by the global warming. We use this …
