In this paper we empirically analyse the impact of disaggregated ICT capital on the electricity intensity in five major European industries (chemical, food, metal, pulp & paper and textile). The analysis of each industrial sector is based on an unbalanced panel including data for eight EU member...

In this paper we estimate residential electricity demand elasticities and conduct an analysis of the causal relationship between electricity demand, disposable income and electricity price for a group of several OECD members. We apply panel cointegration and Granger causality testing to a data...

In this paper we use multivariate cointegration analysis to estimate electricity demand elasticities at the subsectoral industry level. This enables us to reap the benefits of lower heterogeneity within the electricity-consuming sectors investigated and of retaining additional information...

Time series of electricity, petroleum products, and renewables are found to be highly correlated with total energy consumption. Applying this insight to the huge literature on energy-GDP causality explains that the results of energy-GDP causality tests frequently coincide with the results of...

This study is based on the recent development of the European energy environment, which experiences a transition from being dominated by conventional energy generation into an increased penetration of renewable energy sources. Today's system operators offer a set of ancillary services, such as...
