Download or read book Estimates of Energy and Non-Energy Elasticities in Selected Asian Manufacturing Sectors written by Mohammed Khaled. This book was released on 2014. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the results of a study of the demand elasticities for energy and non-energy inputs in the food processing and textile industries in Bangladesh, the Philippines and Thailand. Estimates of substitution elasticities in production were derived by fitting data to a translog cost function for the period 1970-1980 for Bangladesh, 1970-1978 for the Philippines, and 1974-1977 for Thailand. The results varied according to the industries studied and across countries. They were compared with those of several developing and industrialized countries, and substitutability among inputs was found to be greater in the manufacturing sector of the developing countries studies than in those of industrialized countries. The generally high elasticities between labour and energy have implications for relative input pricing and use in developing countries.

Book Synopsis ICT Investment for Energy Use in the Industrial Sectors by : Nabaz T. Khayyat
Download or read book ICT Investment for Energy Use in the Industrial Sectors written by Nabaz T. Khayyat. This book was released on 2017-06-20. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the impact of production input factors on the market, consumer and producer energy demand characteristics in 30 industrial sectors for South Korea over the period 1980–2009, and for Japan over the period 1973-2006, with special emphasis placed on the effects of ICT investment on the demand for energy. A dynamic factor demand model is developed, accounting for the adjustment costs that are defined in terms of forgone output from current production. It addresses four key aspects of production and energy demand in manufacturing: first, it establishes the various relationships between different factors of production. Second, it investigates whether the energy demand in the industrial sectors in South Korea would be decreased or increased by substituting/complementing with other input factors such as ICT capital and labor. Third, it looks at sources of growth in the industrial sectors through decomposing the Divisia index based total factor productivity (TFP). Finally it provides appropriate policy recommendations based on these findings. The results of this study may provide industrial sectors’ stakeholders and environmental and industrial policy makers with a flexible model that has the capacity to assess outcomes of various policies under certain scenarios. The factor demand methodology described in this book is very advanced and up-to-date. It can be used when teaching advanced graduate courses and in empirically advanced research. Therefore, it is highly relevant in both teaching as a main or supplementary text and in particular as a reference handbook in conducting empirical research. The focus on ICT effects on energy use makes this book an important addition to the existing literature on industrial development.

Book Synopsis Energy Demand And Economic Growth by : Corazon M Siddayao
Download or read book Energy Demand And Economic Growth written by Corazon M Siddayao. This book was released on 2021-11-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author examines the measurement and conceptual issues that complicate analytical work in the energy demand field. Successful policy decisions depend on the use of appropriate data and analytic methods; because the demand side of the energy-economy interaction is highly complex, this study focuses on the more basic economic and energy concepts and methods in demand analyses. He critiques measures used to analyze the relationship of energy to economic growth and summarizes the various demand estimation methods and their results. Highlighting the problems faced by analysts in developing countries who often have limited time and inadequate data, she discusses the serious implications of basing policy decisions on questionable analytic methods and data.
