En este documento se estima la relación de largo plazo en la relación Consumo de Energía – PIB, y PIB – Consumo de Energía para 10 países de América Latina durante el periodo 1971 – 2007. Por medio de la prueba de Cointegración de Westerlund (2006) para datos de panel, la cual tiene...

This paper combines two aggregate production function models — one with urbanization as a shift factor and one that includes energy/electricity consumption and physical capital — to estimate the macro-level relationship among urbanization, energy/electricity consumption, and economic growth...

The research presented in this paper studies the relationship between energy consumption and income for a panel of Asian economies. The Asian economies represent a dynamic, diverse, and interesting set of countries on which to base an examination of these relationships and the tendencies for...

Understanding the income/GDP and price elasticities of electricity demand is important for forecasting demand and evaluation of the potential impact of policies. Yet, there has been little work on this topic that focuses on countries outside the OECD. We employ a new database of cross-country...

The decoupling of energy-related carbon emissions from economic growth has been mostly driven by reductions of the energy intensity of GDP, which can be attributed either to changes in countries' economic structure or within-sector energy-efficiency improvements. One question is whether observed...

This paper examines the impact of current account balances on energy, headline, and core inflation across developed and developing economies from 1980 to 2023. Using Panel OLS fixed effects, Panel-IV 2SLS and Panel Vector Autoregressive models, we find that an improvement in the current account...

Energy plays a vital role in economic development. It performs a key for sustainable development. Hence, many studies have attempted to look for the direction of causality between energy consumption (EC), economic growth (GDP) and CO2 emissions. This paper, therefore, applies the panel unit root...

An increase in energy-cost can induce energy efficiency improvement - a reduction in energy-output ratio. There are well-established theoretical conjectures of how this can take place. As the relative energy-cost increases, it induces firms to reallocate and selectively utilize the most...

Purpose- This study aims to examine the effects of energy consumption on economic growth by means of a panel data analysis of 75 net energy-importing countries for the period 1990 to 2012. Design/methodology/approach -For the purpose of the analysis, the countries are classified into two groups,...

This study aims to estimate electricity demand functions in Japan's industrial and commercial sectors. We adopt data from the Energy Consumption Statistics by Prefecture by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Japan, to delineate the demand between the industrial and commercial sector....
