Popis: | A disaggregated economic study of 3825 geographic areas of Los Angeles County was used to estimate electricity demand under declining-block rates. Micro-level data were collected on the marginal price of households, the control of eight major appliances, and weather variables. Several biases are noted, but demand theory under declining-block rates is confirmed. The results are given in terms of short- and long-run changes and income elasticities. 15 references, 5 figures, 3 tables. (DCK) |
