A dynamic analysis of industrial energy efficiency and the rebound effect: implications for carbon emissions and sustainability

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used a two-step procedure to measure both short-and long-term energy rebound effects in the Swedish manufacturing industry and showed that partial and statistically significant rebound effects exist within all manufacturing sectors, meaning that the rebound effect decreased the energy and emission savings expected from EEI.

Sharing economy rebound: The case of peer‐to‐peer sharing of food waste

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use econometric modeling, geo-spatial network analysis, and environmentally extended input-output analysis to quantify how much of the expected environmental benefits attributed to sharing are offset via rebound effects under seven re-spending scenarios.

Economic Implications of Mandated Efficiency in Standards for Household Appliances

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the indiscriminate use of mandated standards will backfire, but a mix of selective standards and reliance on prices as a restraint can be effective.
