Estimating Elasticity for Residential Electricity Demand in China
Residential demand for electricity is estimated for China using a unique household level dataset. Household electricity demand is specified as a function of local electricity price, household income, and a number of social-economic variables at household level. We find that the residential demand for electricity responds rather sensitively to its own price in China, which implies that there is ...
متن کاملPowering up China: Income Distributions and Residential Electricity Consumption
Current forecasts suggest that the vast majority of growth in energy demand will come from the developing world, and that China will play a major part in that growth. This paper presents evidence suggesting that the shape of the income distribution, which is typically omitted from forecasting models, plays a major role in driving household acquisition of energy-using durable goods in rural Chin...
متن کاملElectricity Prices, Income and Residential Electricity Consumption
In recent years, aiming to reduce the Greenhouse Gas pollution and promote energy efficiency and conservation among consumers’ energy use, price policies and price changes derived from environmental regulations have played a more important role. In this paper, using the most recent annual state-level panel data for 48 states, I estimate a dynamic partial adjustment model for electricity demand ...
متن کاملEffective and Equitable Adoption of Opt-In Residential Dynamic Electricity Pricing S. Borenstein
Time-varying retail electricity pricing is very popular with economists, but has little support among regulators and consumers. I propose an opt-in time-varying residential pricing plan that would be equitable to both customers who opt in and those who don’t. Low-income households would, on average, see almost no change in their bills under time-varying pricing, while low-consumption households...
متن کاملEffective and Equitable Adoption of Opt-In Residential Dynamic Electricity Pricing
While time-varying retail electricity pricing is very popular with economists, that support is not matched among regulators and consumers. Many papers have been written estimating and extolling the societal benefits of time-varying rates – especially dynamic rates that change on a day’s notice or less. Yet, such tariffs have been almost completely absent in the residential sector. In this paper...
