Long-run relationship between sectoral productivity and energy consumption in Malaysia: An aggregated and disaggregated viewpoint
This paper investigates the causal relationship between energy consumption and economic productivity in Malaysia at both aggregated and disaggregated levels. The investigation utilises total and sectoral (industrial and manufacturing) productivity growth during the 1971–2012 period using the modifie...
