At present, researches about energy conservation are focused on prediction. But there are few researches focused on the estimation of effective input and energy conservation potential, and there has been even no research on energy conservation of thermal power industry of China. This paper will...

Based on data of China׳s power industry from 2005 to 2010, this research applies the SBM approach of the dynamic DEA model (one of the efficiency measurement methods that corresponds with economy–energy–environment trinity) to analyze the Energy-Efficiency-Dynamic Total Factor Productivity...

Energy efficiency improvement will reduce the effective price of energy services, and hence at least partially mitigate original expected energy conservation. Therefore, the magnitude of rebound effect is important for the design and timing of an effective energy conservation policy. Under the...
