Analysis of the factors influencing energy consumption in industry

China's changing energy intensity trend: A decomposition analysis

“…Many found that structural change has played a minor role in reducing energy intensity. However, Garbaccio et al (1999) found that structural change actually increased energy intensity between 1987and 1992. Fisher-Vanden et al (2003 similarly found an intensity-increasing effect at the 1-digit SIC sectoral level from 1997 to 1999.…”

An Overview for Decomposition of Industry Energy Consumption

“…Decomposition methods based on Eq. 1 have been proposed in Boyd et al [12] , Hankinson and Rhys [13] , Liu et al, [6] , Park [5] and Reitler et al [1] . The decomposition formulae for the two general parametric Divisia methods, referred to as the PDM1 and the PDM2, are as follows:…”

“…Recently, Reitler, Rudolph and Schaefer [1] (designated the RRS method hereafter) proposed a method for decomposing industrial energy consumption into three major components; output level, energy intensity and structural change (or a change in the industrial composition) where disaggregated industrial data are available. But the residual in most studies was omitted.…”

“…Such studies are useful for understanding evolving energy consumption patterns, the relative contribution of different factors affecting changes in energy consumption and for predicting future energy demand. Related studies include Reitler et al [1] , Li [2] , Howarth [3] , Torvanger [4] , Park [5] , Liu et al [6] , Ang and Lee [7] , Ang [8] , Greening [9] and Sun [10,11] . For example, Reitler et al [1] proposed a method to decompose changes in industrial energy consumption into three factors, namely production quantity, production structure and specific consumption.…”

An Analysis of Activity, Intensity and Structural Effect on Change in Energy Consumption in Bangladesh using Complete Decomposition Model (CDM)

“…Basically, the decomposition models lead to an approximate decomposition. This type of decomposition methods have been proposed by Reitler et al (1987), Boyd et al (1988), Doblin and Claire (1988), Howarth (1991), Howarth and Schipper (1992), Park (1992Park ( ,1993 and so on. These approximate decomposition methods have some inherent limitations.…”
