      Which country is most redistributive? This question is often discussed in terms of comparisons of measures of redistribution when each country’s tax schedule is applied to its pre-tax income distribution. However, we believe ...

    • A conflict of interests in electricity taxation? A micro econometric analysis of household behaviour 

      Halvorsen, Bente; Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion Papers;No. 338, Working paper, 2002)
      Abstract: In conducting economic policy, governments generally face conflicts in various objectives, e.g. between efficiency and equity. In Norway, one objective of energy politics has been to reduce electricity consumption, ...

    • Accounting for differences in choice opportunities in analyses of energy expenditure 

      Halvorsen, Bente; Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion Papers;No. 400, Working paper, 2004)
      Abstract: Zero expenditure poses several challenges when estimating demand systems. Zero expenditure on energy goods occur due to limited opportunity to consume the good or because the household chooses not to use all ...

    • The choice of space heating system and energy consumption in Norwegian household 

      Nesbakken, Runa; Strøm, Steinar (Discussion Paper;No. 102, Working paper, 1993-12)
      The procurement of space heating equipment is modelled jointly with the intensity of use. Annualized capital cost ("user cost of capital") is found to have a significant impact on the procurement decision. This impact ...

    • How to quantify household electricity end-use consumption 

      Larsen, Bodil Merethe; Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion Papers;No. 346, Working paper, 2003)
      Abstract: Information about total electricity consumption is available for most households. However, the electricity consumption related to different end uses, e.g. space heating, water heating, lighting and services from ...

    • The LOTTE system of tax microsimulation models 

      Jia, Zhiyang; Larsen, Bodil M.; Lian, Bård; Nesbakken, Runa; Nygård, Odd E.; Thoresen, Thor O.; Vattø, Trine E. (Discussion Paper;No. 1009, Working paper, 2023-11)
      Microsimulation models of the LOTTE system are key tools for tax policy-making in Norway and are extensively used in the budget process. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the different modules in the LOTTE ...

      Lambert, Peter J.; Nesbakken, Runa; Thoresen, Thor Olav (Discussion Papers;No. 649, Working paper, 2011)
      Abstract: Empirical findings on the relationship between income inequality and redistribution from a cross-country perspective are not conclusive. One reason may be that observers have in mind different concepts of ...

    • Possibility for hedging from price increases in residential energy demand 

      Halvorsen, Bente; Larsen, Bodil Merethe; Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion Papers;No. 347, Working paper, 2003)
      Abstract: Liberalisation of the Norwegian electricity market has given more short-term variation in the electricity price. Since almost three quarters of Norwegian households have heating equipment using more than one ...

    • Price Sensitivity of Residential Energy Consumption in Norway 

      Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion papers; No.232, Working paper, 1998-09)
      The main aim of this paper is to test the stability of the results of a model which focus on the relationship between the choice of heating equipment and the residential energy consumption. The results for the income and ...

    • Residential energy consumption for space heating in Norwegian households : a discrete-continuous choice approach 

      Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion Papers;No. 231, Working paper, 1998)
      In this paper the demand for space heating energy is estimated by using a discrete-continuous choice model which focuses on the relationship between the choice of heating equipment and energy consumption. The model is ...
