Productivity Performance of The Iraninan Electric Power Industry

This paper is concerned with the estimation of total factor productivity (TFP) growth for the Iranian electric utilities during the period 1980-1993 on the basis of panel data. A translog cost function is used which accommodates firm - specific variability through a one - way error component model. The results show that the Iranian electricity supply industry experienced increasing returns to s...

Global Climate Change and the Electric Power Industry

The world is getting warmer, both in the atmosphere and in the oceans. The year 2005 was the warmest year in over a century, according to a recent NASA report (2006A). Data gathered from 1995 to 2006 have revealed that 11 of the past 12 years have ranked among the 12 warmest years in the instrumental record. Observations since 1961 have shown that the average ocean temperature has increased to ...
