摘要：
The present paper Looks at the effect of technical efficiency gains on energy use in three sectors in India, at varying levels of aggregation. High positive rebound implies that efficient technology, unless supplemented by appropriate pricing policy, will not be successful in containing demand. However, the main purpose of the paper is to focus on the unique mechanism of rebound that may occur in developing countries with unmet demand. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
