Models, Data and Tools Assessing the Impact of Electric Vehicle Penetration on Electricity Demand in Riyadh Jeyhun Mikayilov, Marie Petitet, Rubal Dua This paper aims to assess and estimate the impact of electric vehicle (EV) penetration on annual electricity demand, specifically in Riyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia. Such an assessment can yield significant insights for stakeholders, including policymakers, energy planners,… Mikayilov, Jeyhun Marie Petitet Dua, Rubal
Future of Transport and Fuel Demand Estimating Car Price Elasticity Using an Inverse Product Differentiation Logit Model Rubal Dua, Prateek Bansal, Jinghai Huo Since the seminal work of Berry, Levinsohn, and Pakes (1995), random coefficient logit (RCL) has become the workhorse model for estimating demand elasticities in markets with differentiated products using aggregated sales data. While the ability to represent flexible substitution patterns… Dua, Rubal Bansal, Prateek Jinghai Huo
Future of Transport and Fuel Demand Worldwide intraregional and interregional air passenger traffic volume distribution Andres Felipe Guzman, Abdulrahman Alwosheel, Rubal Dua Aviation, like other transport modes, is essential for the economy; it facilitates business and trade, allows people to connect with different regions/cities, and generate tourism. Air traffic at the country or regional level is quite interesting by analyzing and comparing… Andres Felipe Guzman Alwosheel, Abdulrahman Dua, Rubal
Future of Transport and Fuel Demand Worldwide Intraregional and Interregional Air Freight Traffic Volume Distribution Andres Felipe Guzman, Abdulrahman Alwosheel, Rubal Dua Freight by air does not comprise a significant share of the worldwide tonnage due to its cost compared to land (road and rail) and sea transport. However, air freight is important for commodities that either have high values or are… Andres Felipe Guzman Alwosheel, Abdulrahman Dua, Rubal
