我们使用三轮丰富的面板数据集调查埃塞俄比亚城市家庭烹饪燃料选择和能源转型的决定因素。我们注意到,埃塞俄比亚在2000-2009年十年期间的经济增长并没有出现预期的能源转型。从一个随机效应多项logit模型,控制未观察到的家庭异质性的回归结果表明,家庭的经济地位,替代能源的价格,教育是重要的决定因素,在埃塞俄比亚城市的燃料选择。研究结果还表明使用多种燃料,或“燃料堆叠行为”。我们认为,政策制定者可以瞄准这些政策杠杆,鼓励向更清洁能源过渡。(C)© 2016 Elsevier B. V.版权所有。
We use three rounds of a rich panel data set to investigate the determinants of household cooking fuel choice and energy transition in urban Ethiopia. We observe that the expected energy transition did not occur following economic growth in Ethiopia during the decade 2000-2009. Regression results from a random effects multinomial logit model, which controls for unobserved household heterogeneity, show that households' economic status, price of alternative energy sources, and education are important determinants of fuel choice in urban Ethiopia. The results also suggest the use of multiple fuels, or 'fuel stacking behavior'. We argue that policy makers could target these policy levers to encourage transition to cleaner energy sources.
