Abstract

We investigate the role of energy price shocks on business cycle fluctuations in Bangladesh. In doing so, we calibrate a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model, allowing for both energy consumptionby households and as an input in production. We find that qualitatively temporary energy price shocks andtechnology shocks produce similar impulse response functions, as well as similar (quantitatively) auto-correlations in aggregate quantities. The variance in aggregate quantities are better explained by technologyshocks than by energy price shocks, suggesting that technology shocks are more important source of fluctuationsin Bangladesh. Мы исследуем влияние колебаний цен на электроэнергию на флуктуации бизнес-цикла на примере Бангладеш. В этом исследовании мы калибрируем динамическую стохастическую модель общего равновесия (DSGE-модель), учитывающую бытовое и промышленное потребление электроэнергии. Мы пришли к выводу, что временные колебания цен на электроэнергию и колебания производительности приводят к схожим ответным реакциям, а также к количественно схожим автокорреляциям суммарного количества. Расхождение в суммарных количествах лучше объясняются технологическими колебаниями, чем колебаниями цен на электроэнергию. Это приводит к выводу, что технологические колебания являются более важным источником флуктуаций бизнес-цикла в Бангладеш.
