A Microeconomic Framework for Evaluating Energy Efficiency Rebound And Some Implications
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theoretical framework that parses rebound into economic income and substitution effects, and explore the implications of this framework with illustrative calculations for improved auto fuel economy and lighting efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fossil fuel supply and climate policy: exploring the road less taken
TL;DR: A key insight driving these new approaches is that the political and economic interests and institutions that underpin fossil fuel production help to perpetuate fossil fuel use and even to increase it, which makes global climate protection objectives much harder to achieve as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Microeconomic Theory of the Rebound Effect and Its Welfare Implications
TL;DR: This paper developed a generalized model to highlight features of the theory of the microeconomic rebound effect that are particularly relevant to empirical economists and formally derived the welfare implications of the rebound effect to provide clarity for ongoing policy debates about the rebound.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consumer End-Use Energy Efficiency and Rebound Effects
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define the rebound effect and characterize its uncertainty, and present a comparison of the impact of different types of energy efficiency policies on the energy efficiency of the same good or service.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of heterogeneous technological progress on haze pollution: Evidence from China
TL;DR: Considering the potential heterogeneity among technological progress, the authors constructs a theoretical framework to analyse the impact of heterogeneous technological progress on haze pollution, using annual data from 30 provinces and cities in China for the period of 2003 to 2016.

Economics and consumer behavior
Angus Deaton,John Muellbauer +1 more
TL;DR: Deaton and Muellbauer as mentioned in this paper introduced generations of students to the economic theory of consumer behaviour and used it in applied econometrics, including consumer index numbers, household characteristics, demand, and household welfare comparisons.

Technology, Prices, and the Derived Demand for Energy
Ernst R. Berndt,David O. Wood +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an industrial demand for energy is essentially a derived demand: the firm's demand for the energy is an input, derived from demand for a firm's output, which is an output.

Individual Discount Rates and the Purchase and Utilization of Energy-Using Durables
TL;DR: In this article, a model of individual behavior in the purchase and utilization of energy-using durables is presented, where the tradeoff between capital costs for more energy efficient appliances and operating costs for the appliances is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Qualitative Choice Analysis: Theory, Econometrics, and an Application to Automobile Demand
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a detailed study of automobile demand and use, presenting forecasts based on the powerful new techniques of qualitative choice analysis and standard regression techniques, which are combined to analyze situations that neither alone can accurately forecast.
