• Methods to empirically estimate direct and indirect rebound effect of energy-saving technological changes in households (2011, unknown): “Source: own from Dimitropoulos (2007).”
• Energy Sustainability: A Pragmatic Approach and Illustrations (2009, background): “Of course, the effectiveness of energy efficiency measures must be considered, and many have pointed out that, contrary to expectations, more efficient use of energy occasionally through “rebound” effects leads to little or no decrease in the consumption of energy resources, and sometimes to increas”
• The economy-wide rebound effect from improved energy efficiency in Swedish industries–A general equilibrium analysis (2015, background): “In this paper we focus on the economy-wide rebound effect from increased efficiency in industrial energy use (see Dimitropoulos, 2007 and Allan et al., 2009 for throughout discussions and literature overviews on the economy-wide rebound effect).”
• “Rebound” Effects from Increased Energy Efficiency: A Time to Pause and Reflect (2013, background): “Khazzoom’s seminal (1980) analysis of the efficiency of appliances is inherently consumption focussed but he talks about supply of energy services, as do Greening et al. (2000), while Sorrell and Dimitropoulos (2007) use Becker’s (1965) “household production” model.”
• Energy Conservation More Effective With Rebound Policy (2011, background): “…mostly in Energy Policy and The Energy Journal Khazzoom 1980, 1987, 1989; Lovins 1988; Brookes 1990, 2000; Saunders 1992, 2000; Herring 1999, 2006; Berkhout et al. 2000; Birol and Keppler 2000; Jaccard and Bataille 2000; Sanne 2000; Grepperud and Rasmussen 2004; Dimitropoulos 2007; Sorrell 2009.”
• National and Sub-national Policies and Institutions (2014, background): “Reviewing claims of rebound effects in excess of 100%, 20 (Dimitropoulos, 2007) concluded that although the evidence base and methodologies were weak, 21 the possibility of significant rebound effects could not be dismissed.”
• The macroeconomic rebound effect and the world economy (2009, background): “One of the main reasons behind the debate is the lack of a rigorous theoretical framework that can describe the mechanisms and consequences of the rebound effect at the macro-economic level (Dimitropoulos 2007).”
