  • Determinants of Intention to Purchase Energy-Efficient Appliances: Extended Technology Acceptance Model
    Anandhi Elangovan, Manivannan Babu, J. Gayathri, J. Sathya, G. Indhumathi
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2024
    Energy is the most important factor for our daily lives, but traditional energy sources like coal, petroleum and gas were polluting the environment. To address this issue, people are considering energy-efficient technologies, which consume less energy and eco-friendly in nature. This paper investigates the factors influencing the intention to purchase of energy-efficient appliances in India. Utilizing the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the study examines how perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, functional value, perceived cost, environmental concern affects their intention to purchase. Non-probability convenience sampling technique was applied. Based on the results, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, functional value, perceived cost, environmental concern positively influences the intention to purchase energy-efficient appliances. The eco-friendly purchasing behaviour has significant societal implications, including reduced carbon emissions, conservation of natural resources and environmental sustainability.

    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2023
    The present study proposes to investigate the influence of the covid-19, on the adjusted closing price of the digital currency based on energy consumption during the process of mining. The study employed the secondary data analysis of top ten market capitalization of cryptocurrencies with the combination of high energy consume mechanism (proof of work) and low energy consume mechanism (proof of stake). Statistical tools like Descriptive analysis,Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test, ARCH, and GARCH models were used in the study. The present study finds that the prices of cryptocurrencies were highly volatile. This study could assist investors towards better understanding of the dynamics of the cryptocurrency market based on energy consumption which helps them to make more effective decisions, on investing cryptocurrencies with a scientific approach.

    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2023
    The aim of the study was to investigate the presence of volatility among the Energy Indices of Asia Pacific Stock Markets. To test the volatility among the daily returns of Energy Indices of Asia Pacific Stock Markets, the study selected five sample Asian Pacific stock markets’ Energy Indices on the basis of availability of data. The findings of descriptive statistics and the ADF Test revealed, that the daily returns of the sample energy indices of Asian Pacific stock markets were not normally distributed and achieved stationarity at level difference, over the research period. Hence the data may be used for additional analysis. The data were then analysed, by using the GARCH (1,1) model to assess the considerable volatility of daily returns of sample energy indices and the study, which revealed that during the study period, all of the sample energy indices were volatile.

    Manivannan Babu, A. Antony Lourdesraj, C. Hariharan, Gayathri Jayapal, G. Indhumathi, J. Sathya, Chinnadurai Kathiravan
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2022
    The purpose of this research was to examine the dynamics of volatility spillover between energy and environmental, social, and sustainable indices. COVID19 prompted the research to select April 2019 to March 2022 as a sample period, and the respective data (Daily Prices) of the Nifty Energy and Nifty ESG indices were obtained from the National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The outcomes of the study confirmed that the daily returns of Nifty Energy and Nifty 100 ESG indices were not normally distributed and reached stationarity at level difference. Further, the study employed GARCH Models such as ARCH, GARCH (1,1), and GARCH-M to determine conditional volatility, and it validated the ARCH influence on the daily returns of the Nifty Energy and Nifty 100 ESG, during the study period
  • Dataset on farmers’ perception of commodity futures market
    S. Srinivasan, M. Babu, P.S. Shabi Shimny, C. Hariharan, J. Gayathri, G. Indhumathi
    Data in Brief, 2022
    The commodity futures market plays a major role in reducing the price risk for the participants. Unfortunately, the farmers' participation in the futures market particularly from the Tamil Nadu region is very less. A survey was conducted using the interview method to identify the information sources used by farmers for taking pricing decisions, the awareness and perception of farmers towards the futures market, and its effect on preferred marketing alternatives. The data cleaning process was done using content validity, confirmatory factor analysis, and reliability test using Cronbach's alpha, and the assumptions of normality and multicollinearity were examined. The data will be of potential use to researchers who wish to explore farmers' behavior towards hedging in the commodity futures market.
  • Effect of COVID-19 Pandemic on NSE Nifty Energy Index
    Manivannan Babu, A. Antony Lourdesraj, Gayathri Jayapal, G. Indhumathi, J. Sathya
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2022
    The research intends to assess the efficiency of NSE Energy Index-listed firms throughout the COVID-19 before and post pandemic phases, which run from 2019 to 2021. The primary goal of this article was to examine the price movement of corporations in the petroleum, gas, and electricity sectors by employing statistical methods such as descriptive statistics, ADF, and the GARCH (1,1) model, during the period of study. When comparing the post-COVID-19 pandemic era to the pre-COVID-19 pandemic period, certain firms experienced excessive volatility. The energy market's investor sentiment was significantly higher on the tail events, suggesting that anxious investors raced to put options and paid an exorbitant premium to shield them against unprecedented danger in the energy market.
