Electricity tariff reforms will be an essential part of the clean energy transition. Existing tariffs rely on average cost pricing and often set a price per unit that exceeds marginal cost. The higher price encourages over-adoption of residential solar panels and under-adoption of electric...

I present a microeconometric model to analyse residential water demand using panel data. Pricing has an increasing-block structure. Database contains individual consumptions from water meters and lacks further information. Permanent income is treated as an unobservable individual effect...

This paper develops a structural model for obtaining price elasticities and evaluating consumer’s response to changes in nonlinear tariffs when only panel data on household consumption are available. The model and the empirical strategy address problems implied by nonlinear tariffs, existence...
