Russian Abstract: Рассмотрена группировка отраслей промышленности и секторов экономики по совокупности таких показателей, как электроёмкость и потребление...

Using a unique and highly detailed data set of energy consumption at the appliance-level for 390 Swedish households, seemingly unrelated regression (SUR)-based end-use specific load curves are estimated. The estimated load curves are then used to explore possible restrictions on load shifting...

This paper analyses the link between sustainability-related innovation and sustainability performance and the role that family firms play in this. This theme is particular relevant from a European point of view given the large number of firms that are family-owned. Governments often support...

Domestic laws are the ideal legal instrument to regulate the mining sector’s contribution to climate change mitigation and adaptation. Even so, as a stop-gap-measure, governments may consider updating model mining development agreements (MMDAs) or negotiating climate­-related contractual...

The possibility of encouraging the growth of forests as a means of sequestering carbon dioxide has received considerable attention because of concerns about the threat of global climate change due to the greenhouse effect. Would this approach be as inexpensive as studies have suggested? We...

With 2.7 billion people relying on woodfuels for cooking in developing countries, the dissemination of improved cooking stoves (ICS) is frequently considered an effective instrument to combat deforestation particularly in arid countries. This paper evaluates the impacts of an ICS dissemination...

We analyze market order arrivals on the intraday market for hourly electricity deliveries in Germany. As we distinguish between buys and sells, we work in a multivariate setting. We model the arrivals with a Hawkes process with exponentially increasing baseline intensity and exponentially...

In this study, using sub-hourly appliance-level data from a representative sample of Swedish households on standard tariffs, we investigate the welfare and emission implications of moving to a mandatory dynamic pricing scheme. We treat demand during different hours of a day to affect utility...

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,...
