Oil demand and technical progress

Author

Listed:
  • Hillard Huntington

Abstract

This analysis provides an empirical perspective on the role of technical progress in OECD oil demand since 1971. It differentiates the role of price-induced and exogenous technical progress from other time-related factors that may influence oil demand growth. Results confirm that both sources of technical progress operate but that price-induced improvements appear to be substantially larger.
