TLDR
In this paper, a review of some of the relevant literature from the US offers definitions and identifies sources including direct, secondary, and economy-wide sources and concludes that the range of estimates for the size of the rebound effect is very low to moderate.About:

Quantifying the rebound effects of energy efficiency improvements and energy conserving behaviour in Sweden
Jonas Nässén,John Holmberg +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived a general expression of the rebound effects of household consumption in a parameterised form where available data can be tested and analyzed how different parameter assumptions affect the quantification of rebound effects and what may be reasonable ranges.

Including second order effects in environmental assessments of ICT
TL;DR: Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can have both negative and positive impacts on the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Known unknowns: indirect energy effects of information and communication technology
TL;DR: While the overall net effect of ICT is likely to remain unknown, this review suggests several guidelines for improving research quality in this area, including increased data collection, enhancing traditional modeling studies with sensitivity analysis, greater care in scoping, less confidence in characterizing aggregate impacts, more effort on understanding user behavior, and more contextual integration across the different levels of the effect taxonomy.

Energy rebound effect in China's Industry: An aggregate and disaggregate analysis
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the impact of output growth on energy consumption in China's industrial sectors with an index decomposition model and the energy rebound effect in the industrial sectors using a panel data model using the annual data during 1994-2012.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of energy efficiency on carbon emissions: Evidence from the transportation sector in Chinese 30 provinces
Rongrong Li,Lejia Li,Qiang Yang +2 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated carbon emissions caused by the transport sectors of 30 Chinese provinces from 2005 to 2019, and combined the decoupling index with a panel threshold analysis, showing that the inhibitory effect of energy efficiency on carbon emissions in the transportation industry is increasing as energy efficiency improves.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
