A survey of data envelopment analysis in energy and environmental studies (2008, methodology): “Along with the wave of deregulation in energy sectors since the late 1980s, DEA has been accepted as a major frontier technique for benchmarking energy sectors in many countries, particularly in the electricity industry (Jamasb and Pollitt, 2001; Abbott, 2005).”
Electricity Market Reform in the European Union: Review of Progress toward Liberalization &Integration* (2005, background): “In recent years, at least 10 European electricity regulators have adopted incentive models based on price cap regulation and utility benchmarking (Jamasb and Pollitt, 2001).”
Do mergers improve efficiency? Evidence from restructuring the US electric power sector (2010, unknown): “Still, studies that have performed stochastic frontier analysis and DEA on the same data have generally found very similar results with respect to relative efficiency of individual units (Jamasb and Pollitt, 2001).”
Dynamic DEA: A slacks-based measure approach (2010, background): “However, company managers invest in their power plants looking 2 In a considerable number of previous studies, the capital variable was treated as input (see [9]).”
Application of Panel Data Models in Benchmarking Analysis of the Electricity Distribution Sector (2006, unknown): “…electricity utilities are: price or revenue cap regulation schemes, sliding-scale rate of return, partial cost adjustment, menu of contracts, and yardstick regulation.1 Jamasb and Pollitt (2001) provide an extensive survey of different regulation practices in electricity markets around the world.”
Regulation of Natural Monopoly (2007, methodology): “The early programs were targeted at specific components of an electric utility’s costs or operating performance such as generation plant availability, heat rates, or construction costs [Joskow and Schmalensee (1986), Sappington et al. (2001)]. However, formal comprehensive incentive regulation mecha”
Efficiency analysis of energy networks: An international survey of regulators (2009, methodology): “Differences across countries in approaches to network regulation have previously been analysed in significant detail for the electricity industry (Jamasb and Pollitt, 2001).”
Regulation and Measuring Cost-Efficiency with Panel Data Models: Application to Electricity Distribution Utilities (2004, background): “1 See Jamasb and Pollitt (2000) and Joskow and Schmalensee (1986) for reviews of regulation models.”
