Moreover, the results show that removal of electricity subsidy, besides raising terminal electricity price, moderates these residential direct...
Many strategies, such as improving energy efficiency, were identified as solutions to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions.

This study focuses on direct and indirect rebound effects on households’ behavior. We...
