Showing papers on "Rebound effect (conservation) published in 2000"


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: 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.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the magnitude of the ''rebound effect'' for space heating in Austria and compare different approaches applied and compared, concluding that despite the fact that all approaches applied have their weaknesses and some results were not highly significant the final outcomes of different approaches show quite good coincidence.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of technical efficiency gains on energy use in three sectors in India, at varying levels of aggregation, was studied, and the main purpose of the paper was to focus on the unique mechanism of rebound that may occur in developing countries with unmet demand.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors take a look at various means to handle these contradictions in order to avoid or balance the so-called rebound effect, where gains in ecoefficiency are likely to be annihilated by a larger consumption, resulting in an increased throughput in the economy.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use a simulation model to estimate the elasticity of substitution between capital and energy, which is a measure of the economic ease with which energy and other inputs to production and consumption can be substituted when the effective cost of using energy does in fact decrease.
