This paper reviews the existing Chinese rural residential electricity price policies, including their features and forming foundations, then analyses the main factors affecting the current Chinese rural residential electricity price by considering electricity generation, transmission and demands, respectively. With the gray relational analysis and the statistical data, the key factors currently affecting Chinese rural residential electricity price can be given as: the average of air conditioners per household, the average lending rates, rural residential per capita net incomes, natural gas price, price of coals for power generation, per capita electricity consumptions in daily life, total electricity consumption, total electricity production, electricity infrastructure investment and cross-subsidies in the electricity sector. Furthermore, the conduction path of the key factors influencing and deciding the electricity price is analyzed and a cause-effect diagram is produced with system dynamics software.

Water is life and energy, basic human needs. The water supply and hydropower demand scenario for India for the year 2025 shows that 90% of the area of the country falls under the Physical Water Scarcity Group. While 500kWh/year per capita energy consumption is considered to be the minimum needed to ensure a quality of life, many developing countries consume less than 76 kWh/year. Hydropower is renewable clean energy and needs to be fully exploited. In Asia and Africa, there is a great opportunity for regional cooperation in development of water resources and hydropower with which to benefit cooperating countries.Key words: Water resources; Water scarcity; Regional cooperation; Per capita electricity consumption; Electricity production capacity; IndiaDOI: 10.3126/hn.v7i0.4228Hydro Nepal Journal of Water, Energy and EnvironmentVol 7, July, 2010Page: 17-19Uploaded date: 31 January, 2011

This paper aims to determine the relationship between residential electricity consumption and other factors by analyzing the correlation and multiple regression between residential electricity consumption and three variables which are known as the factors affecting residential electricity consumption. We used the electricity consumption, income, number of household members, and age of 25 autonomous districts in Seoul as data for analysis, assuming that the socio-demographic characteristics vary from district to district in Seoul. The results showed that the electricity consumption and the three variables each had a significant correlation. However, multiple regression analysis results showed that the income and the number of household members have an effect on electricity consumption, but the average age is not a factor influencing electricity consumption. The results of this study would be useful for understanding the characteristics of urban residential electricity consumption in situations where the needs for an increase in residential electricity rates are continuously coming out.

Gross regional product (GRP) per capita is the main indicator of the development level in a region, determining budgetary economic security and living standards of the population in the region. The energy sector has a great influence on the economic and sustainable development of the regions. The studying problem of the influence level in electricity consumption, the electrical equipment of labour, the volume of industry shipped products on the level of GRP is relevant. The main indicator of ensuring economic security in the region is a high level of GRP per capita. The factors affecting this indicator are revealed. The paper considers the degree of GRP dependence on the following indicators: electricity consumption in industry, the volume of goods shipped by manufacturing industries, the electrical equipment in industrial work (manufacturing industries). By the method of factor analysis, generalized characteristics of regional development are made.

High electricity cost generated from the residents dispersion and the market failure resulted from the natural monopoly of the electricity supply industry make the traditional pricing theory which is based on the cost, market and competition suffer challenge in the decision of residential electricity price (REP). The paper analyzes the main factors influencing residential electricity price policy (REPP) to assist the relevant government decisions from perspectives of the residential affordability, the average electricity sales price, alternative energy and other policies. Furthermore, the conduction path of the factors influencing and deciding REPP is analyzed and a cause-effect diagram is produced with system dynamics software.

In a comprehensive LMDI-STIRPAT-ARDL framework, this research investigates the residential electricity consumption (REC)-income nexus in Morocco for the period 1990 to 2018. The logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI) results show that economic activity and electricity intensity are the leading drivers of Morocco’s REC, followed by population and residential structure. And then, the LMDI analysis was combined with stochastic impacts by regression on population, affluence, and technology (STIRPAT) analysis and the bounds testing approach to search for a long-run equilibrium relationship. The empirical results show that REC, economic growth, urbanization, and electricity intensity are cointegrated. The results further show that there exists a U-shaped relationship between per capita gross domestic product (GDP) and REC: an increase in per capita GDP reduces REC initially; but, after reaching a turning point (the GDPPC level of 17,145.22 Dh), further increases in per capita GDP increase REC. Regarding urbanization, the results reveal that it has no significant impact on Morocco’s REC. The stability parameters of the short and long-term coefficients of residential electricity demand function are tested. The results of these tests showed a stable pattern. Finally, based on the findings mentioned above, policy implications for guiding the country's development and electricity planning under energy and environmental constraints are given.

This study examines how residential electricity consumption (KWHC) reacts to changes in the price of electricity, the price of natural gas, real income per capita, heating degree days, and cooling degree days. Annual frequency data analyzed are for Las Cruces, the second largest metropolitan economy in New Mexico. The sample period is 1977 to 2016. An AutoregressiveDistributed Lag model (ARDL) is employed to obtain long-run and short-run elasticities. In the long-run, residential consumption does not respond in a statistically reliable manner to any of the explanatory variables. All of the coefficient signs are as expected and those for real per capita income and total degree days appear plausible. In the short-run, residential consumption responds reliably to variations in all of the variables except per capita income. Somewhat surprisingly, the short-run results also include an own-price elasticity that is close to zero, implying that residential electricity has a horizontal demand curve in Las Cruces.

Our recent paper (Vu et al., 2016) applied the Phillips and Sul’s method (2007, 2009) and found that the 61 provinces of Vietnam were formed in five convergence sub-groups. This current paper identifies trends and patterns of inequality in provincial GDP per capita of each sub-group of provinces in Vietnam during the period 1990-2011. It also analyses the growth path of each province compared with that of the reference economy [Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and the national average]. The results show that there were the downward trends of inequality in GDP per capita of each sub-group. Also, during the period 1990-1994, most provinces diverged from HCMC but during the period 2004-2011, all provinces tended to converge to it. However, there were few poorest provinces, which tend to be located in geographically and economically isolated regions of Vietnam. This paper analyses main characteristics of provinces and key factors affecting the trends and patterns of disparities in GDP per capita of each sub-group. Furthermore, several policy implications are discussed.

Economists argue that the growth of GDP per capita in a country is greatly influenced by the growth inelectricity consumption in that country. The meaning of this statement is that if you want to increaseGDP per capita, the important thing that needs to be done is to increase the electricity supply capacity.Empirical data shows that every 1 kWh (kilowatt-hour) of electricity consumption contributes about $ 4 -$ 5 to GDP. Another study also states that every 1000 MW of installed capacity will contribute to a GDPof around $ 16 billion or equivalent to Rp. 200 trillion. Therefore, if Indonesia wants to become a countrywith the fifth-largest economy in the world with a GDP of $ 5.420 trillion in 2030, then one way that canbe taken is to increase the capacity of electricity resources to a minimum of 120,000 MW in 2025(RUEN, 2017). This background underlies the analysis of the relationship between the growth of theelectricity sector and the growth of the national economy. The analysis method that will be used is theanalysis of the economic impact with the Input-Output (I-O) method. Furthermore, the I-O table usedfor analysis is the 2014 creative economy I-O table. Based on the results of the study analysis, it isstated that the sub-sector that has high leverage is the sub-sector for electricity supply. However, tohave an impact on the national economy caused by the growth of the electricity sector, it is alsonecessary to develop the five sub-sectors holistically. The results of this study are expected to provideinput for stakeholders in formulating policies for the development of the electricity sector as an effort toachieve the target of advanced Indonesia in 2030.

Being the core and key of power market, electricity price can optimize the allocation of power resources and ensure the normal operation of the power market. As electricity price adjustment is of high influence and wide coverage, hearings are needed to solicit the opinions and suggestions from all parties in society. In China, electricity price hearing always plays an important role in the sales price formulation and adjustment of residential electricity consumption. However, some problems still exist, such as the public’s unawareness of the related issues, and confusion of the price decision after hearing. The United States is the first country in the practice of price hearing system. Therefore, this paper first analyzes the California electricity price hearing system and its three implementing stages: the preparation before hearing, hearing process and the price adjustment decision after hearing .Then combining with the actual situation of China, we put forward three suggestions, including setting up a special service agency of hearing, building prehearing conference system, and establishing the hearing system with Administrative Law Judge at the core.
