Energy footprint of the city: Effects of urban land use and transportation policies

Telework: Urban Form, Energy Consumption, and Greenhouse Gas Implications

“…Engineering relationships govern the use of gasoline while commuting. Using data gathered by West, McGill, and Sluder () for an average vehicle in the U.S. fleet, G ( V ( k )) in Equation is estimated by Larson, Liu, and Yezer () using a fourth‐degree polynomial. …”

A structural equation model of energy consumption in the United States: Untangling the complexity of per-capita residential energy use

“…Even with similar household characteristics, income positively correlates with energy consumption [4,8,9,20,33,[38][39][40][41][42]. However, prior research provides additional evidence that suggests the effect of income on energy consumption is more complex than a simple correlation, due to its effect on housing characteristics [11,36,43,44].…”

The indirect role of households in shaping US residential energy demand patterns

“…In addition to lifecycle factors, social and economic indicators like income, education, and employment influence household energy demand (Kriström, 2006:108). Role of income, for instance, is prominent in determining energy demand, with income being positively correlated with energy demand (Brandon and Lewis, 1999;Brounen et al, 2012;Druckman and Jackson, 2008;Ewing and Rong, 2008;Guerra Santin et al, 2009;Kriström, 2006;Larson et al, 2012;O'Neill and Chen., 2002;Vassileva et al, 2012). However, the effect of income on energy demand is more complex than a simple correlation.…”
