Evaluation of Energy Price Liberalization in Electricity Industry: A Data-Driven Study on Energy Economics

This study aims to evaluate the effects of price liberalization on energy consumption intensity, because price liberalization leads to improved productivity, energy consumption management, and consumption reform<em>.</em> Although the energy consumption of large-scale factories and indus...
