Research Domain:energy economics, fossil fuel market integration, the effects of new energy conversion technologies on the energy use profiles of energy-intensive sectors Research Methodology:econometric analysis, statistics, Monte Carlo simulation, general equilibrium modeling, discounted cash flow. Research Description:D.J. is expanding his previous work on the spot price relationship between crude oil and natural gas by investigating how different factors that may affect the pricing relationship impact market evolution. As an example, his dissertation focuses on how new conversion technologies affect the behavior of the sector into which they are introduced as well as energy use in other sectors of the economy, and how that affects the market pricing relationships between crude oil and natural gas. Can a single technology deployment shift energy consumption patterns enough to impact demand and cause shifts in the market price relationship between oil and natural gas? |
