A general equilibrium view of global rebound effects (2010, methodology): “Wei (2007) also provides a general analysis by using Cobb– Douglas production functions for the global economy.”
“Rebound” Effects from Increased Energy Efficiency: A Time to Pause and Reflect (2013, background): “Turner (2009) explains that this ﬁnding, which contradicts the theoretical predictions of Wei (2007) and Saunders (2008) that economy-wide rebound will be larger in the long-run than in the short-run, is driven by one key variable: the treatment of the return on capital, assumed to be ﬁxed in the…”
Negative rebound and disinvestment effects in response to an improvement in energy efficiency in the UK economy (2009, methodology): “One crucial difference between the theoretical general equilibrium analysis presented by Wei (2007), which underlies the predictions of Saunders (2008) also, and the empirical general equilibrium analysis presented here is whether the return on capital, or capital rental rate, is fixed (as in Wei s…”
The economy-wide rebound effect from improved energy efficiency in Swedish industries–A general equilibrium analysis (2015, background): “Thus, it is reasonable to expect that the rebound effect is higher in the long-term (Wei, 2007 and Saunders, 2008).”
