Patterns in Residential Gas and Electricity Consumption: An Econometric Analysis
居民天然气与电力消费模式的计量分析
In this article, we investigate individual consumption data of natural gas and electricity using modified multiple regression techniques. Because a subset of households have zero gas consumption, the purpose of the study is to ask two empirical questions: 1. How can we quantify potential energy conservation from increasing gas availability? 2. Is it appropriate to estimate and compare electricity demands of gas users and nonusers by the same regression function? We began our…
