RESOURCE and ENERGY ECONOMICS a Journal of Resource, Energy and Environmental Economics RESOURCE AND ENERGY ECONOMICS A Journal of Resource, Energy and Environmental Economics AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Audience p.2 • Impact Factor p.2 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.4 ISSN: 0928-7655 DESCRIPTION . Resource and Energy Economics publishes theoretical and empirical papers, firmly grounded in economic theory, that advance our understanding of and provide novel insights into environmental and natural resource problems and policies broadly defined, as well as analyses of energy use and markets that link resource and environmental issues to energy. Contributions may address any problem involving economic and environmental linkages, including, but not limited to, utilization and development of the earth's natural resources (renewable and non-renewable); international trade and global environmental problems; non-market valuation methodology and novel applications of valuation techniques; experimental economics pertaining to environmental and natural resources; and choice and impact of environmental policy instruments. Also of interest are energy-related papers addressing regional or global pollution as well as the relationships between renewable and non- renewable energy sources and markets. Resource and Energy Economics is an economics journal. Hence, economic analysis is central to all papers that we publish. We are most interested in research that advances theoretical and/or empirical understanding of natural resource and environmental economics. We do not publish studies that are limited to engineering or cost analyses, panel data analyses that document relationships between variables without identifying the underlying mechanism(s) giving rise to these relationships, or localized studies without broader relevance. Papers limited to the study of energy prices and markets are not within the scope of the journal unless the topic is linked to natural resource and environmental issues (such as energy efficiency, consumption, externalities, renewables, environmental policy, resource extraction, climate, etc.). Papers that are determined by the editors to not be a good fit with the above aims and scope or are deemed to not meet the scientific standards of the journal will be returned without review. Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

COLE** INTRODUCTION Privatization is sweeping the globe.1 Since the Reagan-Thatcher revolution of the 1980s, governments around the world have been selling off public assets to private owners in order to improve effi- ciency and increase production.

The term “privatization,” as used throughout the law and economics literature, encom- passes a wide variety of activities by which some public entity conveys property rights to some private entity or entities—everything from outright giveaways or sales of public lands to the granting of licenses or concessions under which private firms finance, construct, or manage ho- tels, airports, wastewater treatment plants, highways, prisons, and schools.

  • Energy Economics
    ENERGY ECONOMICS AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Audience p.2 • Impact Factor p.2 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.4 ISSN: 0140-9883 DESCRIPTION . Energy Economics is the premier field journal for energy economics and energy finance. Themes include, but are not limited to, the exploitation, conversion and use of energy, markets for energy commodities and derivatives, regulation and taxation, forecasting, environment and climate, international trade, development, and monetary policy. Contributions to the journal can use a range of methods, if appropriately and rigorously applied, including but not limited to experiments, surveys, econometrics, decomposition, simulation models, equilibrium models, optimization models, and analytical models. Submitted papers must be replicable. Submitted papers are typically pre-reviewed by the editor-in- chief and the handling editor. Papers generally need two or more positive review reports to be invited for a revise-and-resubmit. Replication policy Energy Economics publishes an eclectic mix of papers using a wide variety of methods to shed light on a range of topics. Our replication policy reflects this, and is applied in spirit rather than to the letter. We encourage the submission of replication studies. Replication studies should reproduce the key results of the original study, replicate them and extend them in a substantive way, while explaining the differences. For econometric papers, authors should provide program(s) and data set(s), plus a readme file on how to replicate each table, graph and other result. Ideally, there will be one command to reproduce the entire paper.

Within this strategic framework, the renewable energy development target plays a key role. This renewable energy deployment must be translated into national and European Union realities through specific political decisions. The econometric analysis techniques have the capacity to represent, in a mathematical and objective way, the system of relations comprising the economic, technical, and political factors that contribute to the deployment of renewable energy, and the impact that such an investment in renewable energy has at an economic, environmental, and social level. Therefore, econometric studies have a high potential to support policymakers who have to translate the guidelines of the strategic plan for renewable energy deployment into concrete policies. This article analyzed the capacity of the econometric literature on renewable energy development to provide this support, by means of a bibliometric study carried out on a sample of 153 documents related to 1329 keywords.

  • Panel Data in Energy Economics∗
    Panel Data in Energy Economics∗ Appearing in: Panel Data Econometrics Volume 2: Empirical Applications, ed. Mike Tsionas, Elsevier Publishing Co. Scott E. Atkinson Department of Economics University of Georgia email: [email protected] January 4, 2018 ∗I wish to thank Chris Cornwell, Rong Luo, Tom Quan, and Mike Tsionas, for helpful comments on an earlier draft. yCorresponding author with phone: 706 549 0977; fax: 706 542 3376 Abstract This chapter analyzes panel data studies of the most widely-examined energy consumption industries—electric power, railroads, and airlines. For electric power, the choice between utility- level versus plant-level data, cross-sectional versus panel data, and pooled-data analysis versus fixed-effects (FE) estimation generally makes little difference. A consensus also exists across esti- mates of cost, profit, and distance functions as well as systems including these functions. Generally, studies reject homogeneous functional forms and find nearly constant returns to scale (RTS) for the largest firms. Residual productivity growth declines over time to small, positive levels and substantial economies of vertical integration exist. Cost saving may accrue from a competitive gen- erating sector. Controversy remains regarding the Averch-Johnson effect and the relative efficiency of publicly-owned versus privately-owned utilities. Railroads exhibit increasing RTS, substantial in- efficiencies, and low productivity growth. Airlines operate close to constant RTS and enjoy modest productivity growth. Substantial inefficiencies decrease with deregulation. A valuable alternative to FE estimation is a control function approach to model unobserved productivity. KEY WORDS: panel data, firm fixed effects, railroads, airlines, electric utilities, production func- tions, cost functions, profit functions, shadow costs, distance functions 1 Introduction In 2016, the electric-power sector consumed 39% of all energy resources, the transportation sector 29%, the industrial sector 22%, and the residential/commercial sector 11%.

This survey considers the economic dimensions of energy security, political and other non-economic security concerns and discusses policy approaches that could enhance U.S. energy security. A number of points emerge. First, energy security is enhanced by reducing consumption, not imports. A policy to eliminate oil imports, for example, will not enhance U.S.

Policy Implications Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketches Summary The role of energy in the macroeconomy is described across a range of concepts and theories encompassing current thinking in both traditional economics and more interdisciplinary efforts. Among economists, the importance of energy as an input to the macroeconomyUNESCO is paramount to some, yet – trivial EOLSS to others. Time series and cross sectional correlations seem to validate claims that there is a strong relation between energy use and economic activity. However, closer inspection indicates that this correlation is flexible. This flexibility is associated with historical and cross sectional differences in theSAMPLE types of fuels consumed, theCHAPTERS types of goods and services produced and consumed, energy prices, and technical, geographic, social, and political factors. These relations beg the question, how does energy use affect economic activity? The long run level of economic activity is determined principally by labor productivity, which is determined in part by the net supply of energy.
