Titel:Life after the financial crisis. Energy intensity and energy use decomposition on sectorial level in Latvia
Verlag:Elsevier Ltd
Jahr:2016
Inhalt:•Energy intensity declines more to technological than to structural effect.•Transportation and storage, manufacturing sectors reduced energy intensity.•Minor reduction in energy intensity for agriculture, forestry and fishing sectors.•No reduction of energy intensity for construction, mining and quarrying sectors.•Reallocation of energy sources due to economic recession increased energy intensity. This study explores the causes of changes in energy intensity and energy use in Latvia by applying logarithmic mean Divisia index decomposition and mean-rate-of-exchange index analysis for energy sectors. Analysis on the latest data (2008–2012) reveals if any technological or structural changes have occurred during and after economic downturn in Latvia. The study explored effect of economic activity on final energy use. The results show that the reduction in energy intensity before the year 2008 can be largely attributed to decline in energy intensities within sectors, but the increase in energy intensity after the year 2008 is regarded to expansion of energy demanding sectors.
