US residential energy demand and energy efficiency : A stochastic demand frontier approach

Filippini, Massimo ; Hunt, Lester C.

In: Energy economics, 2012, vol. 34, no. 5, p. 1484–1491

This paper estimates a US frontier residential aggregate energy demand function using panel data for 48 ‘states’ over the period 1995 to 2007 using stochastic frontier analysis (SFA). Utilizing an econometric energy demand model, the (in)efficiency of each state is modelled and it is argued that this represents a measure of the inefficient use of residential energy in each state (i.e....

Fuel tourism in border regions : the case of Switzerland

Banfi, Silvia ; Filippini, Massimo ; Hunt, Lester C.

In: Energy Economics, 2005, vol. 27, no. 5, p. 689-707

This paper explores the issue of ‘fuel tourism’ in Switzerland. For the period 1985 to 1987, a panel data model for the border regions of Switzerland, (Italy, France, and Germany) is estimated. The results show a significant impact of the gasoline price differential on demand, suggesting that a decrease of 10% in the Swiss gasoline price leads to a reduction in demand in the border areas of...
