The Impact of Sub-Metering on Condominium Electricity Demand

Donald N. Dewees; Trevor Tombe

De très nombreux Canadiens qui vivent dans des immeubles d’appartements ou de condominiums n’ont pas accès à des signaux de prix de l’énergie. Pour encourager l’économie d’énergie, certains gouvernements explorent donc actuellement la possibilité d’imposer le comptage obligatoire dans chaque unité d’habitation. Dans cette étude, nous montrons que l’installation de compteurs divisionnaires dans un immeuble de condominiums de Toronto a permis de réduire de 20 % la consommation d’électricité. Toutefois, les coûts qu’engendre cette opération (le comptage et le service à la clientèle) dépassent largement l’économie ainsi réalisée, et les avantages nets privés sont donc minimes ou nuls. Les avantages nets publics, pour leur part, dépendent fortement de la valeur des externalités liées à la production d’électricité. Dans le cas que nous avons étudié, nous évaluons ces avantages à environ 5 %, ce qui est loin des 20 % de réduction de la consommation d’électricité; de plus, nous avançons qu’ils pourraient être négatifs pour plusieurs immeubles.

Internal Trade, Productivity, and Interconnected Industries: A Quantitative Analysis

Lukas Albrecht; Trevor Tombe

Does trade within a country affect welfare and productivity? What are the magnitude and consequences of costs to such trade? To answer these questions, we exploit unique Canadian data to measure internal trade costs in a variety of waysthey are large and vary across sectors and provinces. To quantify their consequences for welfare and productivity, we use a recent multi-sector trade model featuring rich inputoutput relationships. We find interprovincial trade is an important contributor to Canadas GDP and welfare, though there are significant costs to such trade. Reducing interprovincial trade costs by 10% yields aggregate gains of 0.9%; eliminating our preferred estimates of costs, gains average between 3% and 7%equivalent to real GDP gains between
