This paper sets out a simple spatial model of energy exploitation to ask how the location and productivity of energy … resources affects the distribution of economic activity across geographic space. By combining elements from energy economics and … economic geography we link the productivity of energy resources to the incentives for economic activity to agglomerate. We find …

In this paper a set of ten different single-equation models of household energy demand is being analyzed. These simple … lag (ADL) model in log-linear form. Household energy consumption is assumed to be explainable by movements in households …' real disposable income, real price of energy, and the temperature variable 'heating degree days'. In the empirical …

We provide evidence that motorists respond to short-run fluctuations in fuel prices at the gas pump and not on the road. Employing variants of censored panel regression to control for unobserved heterogeneity and censoring of the dependent variable, we find that the fuel price has a large and...

We describe the determinants of energy intensity, carbon intensity, and CO2 emissions in the German manufacturing …, structural change within sectors, energy intensity at the firm level, fuel mix, and emission factors. We use a firm data set on … energy use from the AFiD-Panel on German manufacturing plants that allows us to analyze energy use at the firm level with …
