摘要

本研究分析了1998-2009年期间南部非洲电力联盟(SAPP)电力公司技术效率表现的决定因素，不包括南非的Eskom。该研究通过考虑公用事业的垂直结构和产品的定义，考虑到本样本的具体特征，制定了一个明确的技术无效率模型。研究发现，样本平均效率的显著提高发生在2000年至2002年，与2001年的第一个SAPP能源计划相吻合。消费密度、腐败控制和负荷因素也影响了效率的不同水平。研究结果为能源政策和激励规制的设计提供了新的实证依据。

Revisiting electric utilities’ efficiency in the Southern African Power Pool, 1998–2009

This study analyses the determinants of the technical efficiency performance for Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) power utilities in the period 1998-2009, excluding South Africa’s Eskom. The study formulated an explicit model for technical inefficiency by considering the vertical structure of the utilities and the definition of the product, considering the specific characteristics of this sample. It was found that the most significant improvement in the average efficiency of the sample occurred from 2000 to 2002, coinciding with the first SAPP Energy Plan of 2001. Density in consumption, control of corruption and load factor also contributed to the different levels of efficiency. The results provided a new empirical evidence that can be useful for the design of energy policy and incentive regulation.

期刊介绍： The journal has a regional focus on southern Africa. Manuscripts that are accepted for consideration to publish in the journal must address energy issues in southern Africa or have a clear component relevant to southern Africa, including research that was set-up or designed in the region. The southern African region is considered to be constituted by the following fifteen (15) countries: Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of Congo, Lesotho, Malawi, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Within this broad field of energy research, topics of particular interest include energy efficiency, modelling, renewable energy, poverty, sustainable development, climate change mitigation, energy security, energy policy, energy governance, markets, technology and innovation.
