Efficiency of household electricity consumption in Ghana

Energy Policy, 2020
Abstract One explanation that can be associated with the inadequate focus on demand-side management of household electricity consumption is the poor knowledge on consumption inefficiency. This study estimates the efficiency of Ghanaian households' electricity consumption and factors influencing inefficiency using the energy demand frontier model and ...

Electricity price and habits: Which would affect household electricity consumption?

Energy and Buildings, 2021
Abstract This research analyzes the effects of electricity prices and habits on electricity consumption behavior, which is of significance for identifying the mechanism of electricity consumption behavior. We use economic statistics and data from 3,320 questionnaires to conduct the research. Based on theoretical and empirical models, we find that the

Do green electricity tariffs increase household electricity consumption?

open access: yesApplied Economics, 2022
In this paper we investigate whether households change electricity consumption after they switch to a green electricity tariff. Using metered data of household electricity consumption from a large provider of green electricity in Germany, our quasi ...

Distributed Coordination of Household Electricity Consumption

2014 IEEE Conference on Control Applications (CCA), 2014
This work presents a distributed framework for coordination of flexible electricity consumption for a number of households in the distribution grid. We conduct coordination with the purpose of minimizing a trade-off between individual concerns about discomfort and electricity cost, on the one hand, and joint concerns about grid losses and voltage ...

What is the effect of weather on household electricity consumption? Empirical evidence from Ireland

Energy Economics, 2021
We explore the links between weather variables and residential electricity consumption using high-resolution smart metering data. While weather factors have been used for grid-level electricity demand estimations, the impact of different weather ...

Sources of inequality in household electricity consumption: evidence from Taiwan

Energy Sources Part B Economics Planning and Policy, 2021
This study examined the inequality of household electricity consumption in Taiwan over 1981–2017. The concentration index results indicated that richer households consume more electricity use per capita than poorer households, while the Kakwani index ...

Electric Heating and the Effects of Temperature on Household Electricity Consumption in South Africa

Energy Journal, 2020
How does temperature affect household energy demand in low-income countries? This paper uses 132,375,282 hourly electricity consumption observations from 5,975 households in South Africa to estimate the causal effects of short-term temperature changes on
