this paper presents an oil price cartel model. the aggregate reaction functions for non-cartel producers and for substitute suppliers are included. the former group acts as a price-taker, while the latter expects oil prices in production of its non-oil energy resources. this expectation about prices affects a cartel’s oil demand and, thus, gives intertemporal price elasticities it turns out tha...

as a result of higher crude oil prices, in one hand, it is expected that alternative energy resources consumption is increased and consumers change their behavior to decline energy intensity too. on the other hand, more alternative energy consumption can leads to a decline of crude oil aggregate demand. therefore, existence of mutual causality between crude oil price and alternative energy cons...

The cement industry is one of the most energy and carbon-intensive industries. The energy and carbon reduction is an important issue in this industry. The present work considers the use of alternative fuels in the cement kilns. The amounts of excess air, the location of fuel and air entrance, as well as the amount of produced gas stacks, are the main design and operational variables in the kiln...
