...Therefore, we use the selection model to allow for possible dependencies in the two parts of the model (cf. Cameron and Trivedi, 2005)....

...(4) In our speci cation this translates into the following linear relationship for the latent variable equation: y∗i = α+ θGi + µMi + φFi + χXi + ui, (5) 7The results of both models are very similar, theoretically as well as for our speci cations (cf. Cameron and Trivedi, 2005)....

...Energy costs and intensity An investment in energy saving technologies may include an additional xed cost, but could lead to reductions of a rm's variable energy costs and also of its energy intensity (Bustos, 2011)....

...Energy costs and intensity An investment in energy saving technologies may include an additional xed cost, but could lead to reductions of a rm's variable energy costs and also of its energy intensity (Bustos, 2011). We analyze the relationship of the investments to the rm's energy intensity and de ne energy intensity, similar to Martin et al. (2012), as the energy cost share of turnover, also to prevent the rm size (i....
