Coal consumption and economic growth: evidence from a panel of OECD countries / Apergis, Nicholas; Payne, James E   Journal Article
Payne, James E Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract This study examines the relationship between coal consumption and economic growth for 25 OECD countries within a multivariate panel framework over period 1980-2005. The Larsson et al. (2001) panel cointegration test indicates there is a long-run equilibrium relationship between real GDP, coal consumption, real gross fixed capital formation, and the labor force. The respective coefficients for real gross fixed capital formation and the labor force are positive and statistically significant whereas the coefficient for coal consumption is negative and statistically significant. The results of the panel vector error correction model reveal bidirectional causality between coal consumption and economic growth in both the short- and long-run; however, the bidirectional causality in the short-run is negative.

Inefficient and opaque price formation in the Japan Electric Po / Nakajima, Tadahiro   Journal Article
Nakajima, Tadahiro Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract This study examines whether the spot prices in the Japan Electric Power Exchange are efficiently formed from April 3, 2006, to March 31, 2012, using the conventional and rank-based variance-ratio tests. The results seem to reject the efficient market hypothesis in the market. Moreover, by applying Granger-causality tests, this paper investigates whether the power price is determined from the information of primary energy and exchange markets that directly affect the cost of power generation. The results indicate no Granger-causality from the prices of oil and gas and the exchange rate to the price of electricity. Finally, this paper discusses the factors that lead to inefficient and mysterious price formation.

Renewable energy consumption and economic growth: evidence from a panel of OECD countries / Apergis, Nicholas; Payne, James E   Journal Article
Apergis, Nicholas Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract This study examines the relationship between renewable energy consumption and economic growth for a panel of twenty OECD countries over the period 1985-2005 within a multivariate framework. Given the relatively short span of the time series data, a panel cointegration and error correction model is employed to infer the causal relationship. The heterogeneous panel cointegration test reveals a long-run equilibrium relationship between real GDP, renewable energy consumption, real gross fixed capital formation, and the labor force with the respective coefficients positive and statistically significant. The Granger-causality results indicate bidirectional causality between renewable energy consumption and economic growth in both the short- and long-run.
