Question
We model energy use per capita of 131 countries in a given year as follows: Lntpes_pc = 0+1Lnypcpenn+ 2Lnypcpenn2+3LnGasprice+4LnAnnualprecip+ 5TempColdest+ 6TempWarmest+7ffrents+8LnPop+9LnLand+D_incomegroups+u The variables are defined
We model energy use per capita of 131 countries in a given year as follows:
Lntpes_pc = 0+1Lnypcpenn+ 2Lnypcpenn2+3LnGasprice+4LnAnnualprecip+ 5TempColdest+ 6TempWarmest+7ffrents+8LnPop+9LnLand+D_incomegroups+u
The variables are defined as follows:
Lntpes_pc = log of total primary energy consumption per capita (ktoe)
Lnypcpenn =log of GDP per capita (USD)
Lnypcpenn2 = square of log of GDP per capita (USD)
Ln_gasprice = log of pump price for gasoline (USD/liter)
LnAnnualprecip= log of annual precipitation (mm)
Temp_coldest = average temperature for the coldest month in a year (in C)
Temp_warmest= average temperature for the warmest month in a year (in C)
ffrents = Fossil Fuel Rents (% of GDP)
LnPop = log of population (in millions)
LnLand = log of land area (in km2)
I_Incomegroup = refers to income groups ?1? , ?2? and ?3?, low, mid and high income countries.
*?Log? always refers to natural logs or ?ln? here.
Log referrers to natural logarithm!
Interpret the constant and its p-value.
Interpret the coefficient on gas price and its p-value.
Interpret the coefficient on annual precipitation and carry out a t-test to determine the significance of the coefficient.
Interpret the coefficient on population and its p-value.
