Changing Patterns of Household Expenditures on Energy : A Case Study of Indonesia and Pakistan
This paper applies a decomposition
technique using a log mean Divisia index to two sets of
household surveys taken several years apart in Indonesia and
Pakistan. The methodology enables separation of changes in
expenditure on different types of energy into changes in
prices, quantities, the share of households using the given
form of energy, and total household income. The technique
was applied to electricity, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG),
kerosene, and gasoline in Indonesia, and to natural gas,
kerosene, LPG, purchased firewood, collected firewood, dung
cake, and other forms of biomass in Pakistan. The methods of
analysis presented in this paper could be extended to other
commodities or to changes in energy use patterns over longer
periods of time, where suitable household expenditure
surveys are available. In particular, when household surveys
covering the period of high oil prices become available, the
analysis of changing household patterns of fuel use will be
valuable. The availability of evidence on the use of energy
by various household groups will be important for
considerations of providing targeted support to low-income
households at times of unexpected shocks to energy prices.
