Isi artikel

A model of residential demand for the natural gas used in space and water heating is developed. Parameter estimates of thermal efficiency, internal design temperature, furnace efficiency, family, and economic variables are derived for a sample of households defined as "energy conservers" by virtue of having retrofitted their homes. The paper also addresses econometric problems of simultaneity and index bias. Results indicate that, for this sample, residential demand for natural gas is price elastic.
