Gasoline Prices, Gasoline Consumption, and New-Vehicle Fuel Economy : Evidence for a Large Sample of Countries

Burke, Paul J.; Nishitateno, Shuhei - 2013

Countries differ considerably in terms of the price drivers pay for gasoline. This paper uses data for 132 countries for the period 1995–2008 to investigate the implications of these differences for the consumption of gasoline for road transport. To address the potential for simultaneity bias,...

Determinants of Energy Productivity : A Comparison of 39 Countries

Atalla, Tarek; Bean, Patrick - 2015

This paper uses three types of analysis to investigate the drivers of energy productivity changes occurring in 39 countries during 1995-2009. We find that increases in sectoral energy productivity were the primary driver behind economy-wide energy productivity improvements between 1995 and 2009....

Is Per Capita Energy Use Stationary? Time Series Evidence for the EMU Countries

Magazzino, Cosimo - 2017

This study examines the stationary properties of per capita energy use in the 19 Eurozone member countries by using annual data over 1960–2013 period. We utilize the Clemente et al. unit root test that determines structural breaks. Empirical results show that most of the country series does...

The Price Elasticity of Electricity Demand in the United States : A Three-Dimensional Analysis

Burke, Paul J. - 2017

In this paper we employ a dataset of three dimensions - state, sector, and year - to estimate the short- and long-run price elasticities of state-level electricity demand in the United States. Our sample covers the period 2003-2015. We contribute to the literature by employing instrumental...
