Conservation programs have increased significantly, as has the evaluation of their impacts.
However, the evaluation of their potential impacts beyond program borders has been …

The physics of an electrical grid requires that the supply injected into the grid is always in
balance with the quantity consumed. If that balance is not maintained, cascading outages …

We study the adoption of energy-efficient LED lighting in garment factories around
Bangalore, India. Combining daily production line–level data with weather data, we estimate …

Almost all of the world's energy demand growth is projected to occur in low-and medium-
income countries (LMICs). Targeted energy efficiency investments have the potential to …

I assessed energy efficiency performance and investigated transition tendencies for
economies at different development levels. I found that energy efficiency performance is tied …

Many low-and middle-income countries have made tremendous gains in electrification over
the past few decades. These improvements in electricity access have enabled a growing …

Hundreds of millions of households depend on electricity grid connections providing low
quality and unreliable services. Understanding the impacts of and consumer response to …

Blackouts impose substantial economic costs in developing countries. This paper advances
a new explanation for their continued prevalence: unlike in high-income countries, where …

Due to their lower cost and performance predictability, traditional energy sources outperform
renewables. Therefore, one of the most important concerns of energy management systems …

This paper examines an overlooked consequence of an unstable electricity supply: air
pollution. Using a unique dataset with high-frequency records of outage events and …
