Potential environmental benefits of green tariffs may be mitigated if households increase electricity consumption after they subscribe to green tariffs. Using metered data of household electricity consumption from a large provider of green electricity in Germany, our quasi-experimental analysis...

This paper estimates a model of household-level demand for electricity services and electricity demand in the Indian state of Rajasthan using a combination of household-level survey and administrative data. The model incorporates customer-level demographic characteristics, billing cycle-level...

The disconnect between price variability of wholesale electricity sales and the uniformity of the retail prices observed by most consumers results in well documented inefficiencies. Time-of-use (“TOU”) electricity tariffs offer a middle-ground between dynamic wholesale prices and flat retail...

Recent efforts to restructure and partially deregulate electricity markets have renewed interest in understanding how consumers respond to price changes. Several interrelated problems complicate demand analyses of these markets, including nonlinear pricing, heterogeneity in households' price...

Accurate projections of electricity demand growth by end-use customer class (residential, commercial, industrial) are necessary for energy policy modelling, resource planning, and electricity pricing and procurement. Motivated by the expected trend of rising retail electricity prices in the US...
