We study the electricity consumption of San Diego-area households following a series of price changes and related … conservation program had significant, but transitory, effects. Further, a large share of households reduced electricity consumption …

This paper presents estimates of the customer-level demand for electricity by industrial and commercial customers … purchasing electricity according to the half-hourly energy prices from the England and Wales (E&W) electricity market. These … customers also face the possibility of a demand charge on their electricity consumption during the three half-hour periods that …

The standard approach to recovering the cost of electricity provision is to bill customers monthly for past consumption …. A possible solution to this problem is prepaid metering, in which customers buy electricity upfront and use it until the … prepaid amount is consumed. We use data from Cape Town, South Africa to examine the effects of prepaid electricity metering on …

We measure the pass-through of emissions costs to electricity prices and explore its determinants. We perform both … general pass-through literature, we find that emissions costs are almost fully passed-through to electricity prices. Since … electricity is traded through high-frequency auctions for highly inelastic demand, firms have weak incentives to adjust markups …

In electricity markets, generators are rewarded both for providing energy and for enabling grid reliability. The two …

electricity prices in California. We match a spatially-disaggregated panel dataset of monthly EV registration records to detailed … records of gasoline and electricity prices in California from 2014-2017, and use these to estimate the effect of energy prices … percentage change in electricity prices. We explore the implications for optimal EV subsidies, which promote externality …

In this paper, we develop a methodology for estimating marginal emissions of electricity demand that vary by location … electricity markets and shifting load profiles throughout the day. Using data available for 2007 through 2009, with a focus on … and Texas. In the upper Midwest, however, charging during the recommended hours at night implies that PEVs generate more …

Charging infrastructure is critical to electric vehicle (EV) adoption, but for chargers to be most useful, EV drivers …-time data to all DC fast chargers near highways. On average, between March and August 2024, 32.9% of DC fast charging stations … currently-available real-time data. We incorporate this data into a two-sided model of consumer vehicle choice and charging …

The growth of electric vehicles (EVs) raises new challenges for electricity systems. We implement a field experiment to … assess the effect of time-of-use (TOU) pricing and managed charging on EV charging behavior. We find that while TOU pricing … is effective at shifting EV charging into off-peak hours, it unintentionally induces new and larger "shadow peaks" of …

. Electricity distribution is the canonical example of a natural monopoly. Randomized price offers show that demand for electricity …
