Abstract

[eng] A detailed knowledge of the evolution of utilisation equipment is of great practical importance, for instance for anyone who wants to analyze the investment behaviour of the firms or to interpret the sizable variation of industrialing-productivity, pricing or foreign exchange. Through lack of statistical long term series concerning this economic field, many papers have pointed out the possibility to build an utilisation of equipment variable from firms energy consumption and specially electricity. This paper is aimed at laiding out the methodology foundations and empirical construction of this indicator for the French economy. Introducing this variable on the estimation of production function is likely to be relevant and as the best performances among all the supply variables considered in this study. [fre] La connaissance détaillée de l'évolution des degrés d'utilisation des équipements productifs est d'une grande importance pratique, entre autres, pour qui désire étudier les comportements d'investissement des entreprises ou encore interpréter les inflexions de la productivité industrielle, la formation des prix et les échanges extérieurs. Face aux lacunes statistiques existantes dans ce domaine, de nombreuses études anglo-saxones ont mis en évidence la possibilité de construire un indicateur d'utilisation des équipements à partir de la consommation d'énergie, et plus particulièrement d'électricité, des entreprises. L'objet de cet article est de présenter la méthodologie et la construction empirique d'un tel indicateur pour la France. L'introduction de cette variable dans une fonction de production à facteurs complémentaires se révèle pertinente et a, de toutes les variables d'offre retenues, le meilleur comportement.
