We propose a new instrument for estimating the price elasticity of gasoline demand that exploits systematic differences across U.S. states in the pass-through of oil price shocks to retail gasoline prices. We show that these differences are primarily driven by the cost of producing and...

The study estimates the housing supply elasticity and the impact of geographic constraints in Germany from 2008-2019 using the Bartik instrument. The results show that the housing supply is, on average, inelastic, with a floorspace elasticity of 0.22 and a units elasticity of 0.25. The study...

Price elasticity of consumer loans is a crucial factor in the decision making processes of financial institutions. Previous studies, employing varying levels of aggregation and units of observation, have consistently demonstrated a negative elasticity between personal loans and interest rates....

Short-term demand-side flexibility is expected to play an essential role in balancing intermittent electricity generation in the future carbon-neutral power system. This study quantifies the price responsiveness of highly electrified households, with many using electricity for heating and...
