In this review we assess both the reasons/hypotheses for why GDP and price elasticities of energy/electricity demand might change over time, and the evidence from papers that have addressed that issue. We consider papers that have used parametric methods (e.g., endogenous or exogenous breaks,...

Knowledge of the carbon emissions elasticities of income and population is important both for climate policy/negotiations and for generating projections of carbon emissions. However, previous estimations of these elasticities using the well-known STIRPAT framework have produced such wide-ranging...

This paper considers the influence of uncertainty with respect to GDP and population — both total and age structure — on long-run environmental impact projections. The paper takes as its starting point a simple, transparent, published model that is based on the stochastic version of the IPAT...

This paper bridges two related, but up to now, unconnected literatures: economic growth stability and population-economic growth. The paper differs from previous population-economic growth analyses by focusing on instability of economic growth in developing countries. This study contributes to a...

Knowledge of the carbon emissions elasticities of income and population is important both for climate change policy/negotiations and for generating projections of carbon emissions. However, previous estimations of these elasticities using the well-known STIRPAT framework have produced such...

This paper disaggregates energy consumption and GDP data according to end-use to analyze a broad number of developed and developing countries grouped in panels by similar characteristics. Panel long-run causality is assessed with a relatively under-utilized approach recommend by Canning and...
