Location Decisions Of Energy-Intensive Manufacturing Firms: Estimating The Potential Impact Of Electric Utilities Deregulation

Author

  • Goetz, Stephan J.

Abstract

Location decisions of electric energy-intensive manufacturing establishments are examined in the context of electric utilities deregulation, using Tobit and probit methods. Rural counties which once had an advantage recruiting manufacturing industries by offering low electricity rates may lose firms to other regions of the country under deregulation.
