"Modeling individual demands for alternative-fuel vehicles"
Abstract
After a short review of the existing literature, we describe overall evolution of market penetration of alternative fuel types in some European countries using car registration data over the last decade. We then turn to cross-sectional modeling of individual demands for new cars in France in 2014 using revealed preference data. We here develop advanced disaggregate choice modeling techniques. We further use bootstrap techniques for imputation of attributes of unchosen alternatives. Price endogeneity is accounted for. Short-run own and cross elasticities of demands with respect to car attributes are then discussed.
