We propose a new instrument for estimating the price elasticity of gasoline demand that
exploits systematic differences across US states in the pass-through of oil price shocks to …

With climate change and energy security being global issues, improvements in passenger
vehicles' fuel economy can greatly aid in reducing gasoline usage and mitigating carbon …

Addressing how to achieve carbon neutrality without hindering economic growth is critical.
As the world's largest CO 2 emitter and heavily reliant on imported crude oil, China faces …

This article analyzes the effects of fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission standards on
the direction of innovation. We develop an intuitive measure of standard stringency that …

Workhorse economic models used for studying the market impacts of search frictions
assume constant search costs: individuals pay the same cost to obtain price information …

In this paper, we study the effect of spatial tax differentials on fuel tax pass-though and sales
responses. We use two-way fixed effects methods to exploit regional variation in diesel …

We estimate the relationship between fuel prices and driving speeds on the German
Autobahn. The speed price elasticities are higher on sections without a speed limit (− 0.047) …

This article exploits both the crude oil price surge consecutive to the invasion of Ukraine and
2022 fuel excise tax rebates in France as quasi-natural experiments to infer the price …

Regulators attest that energy efficiency standards save consumers money. More efficient
light bulbs, appliances, and vehicles would cost more up front but reduce energy expenses …

We use micro-level data on fuel consumption, mileage, and travel mode to study plug-in
hybrid drivers' response to fuel prices. When fuel prices rise, plug-in hybrids reduce fuel …
