Group Project Instructions

Students will form groups of two/three people who will cooperate towards analysing a dataset. In your groups, you will write a small report on the determinants of electricity consumption. Data will be provided on electricity consumption and some potentially relevant predictors. You will investigate which of these predictors are relevant determinants of electricity consumption. You will have to apply your knowledge to find the best regression model and explain all the steps taken to end up with this model including what checks were made to ensure that the model is not misspecified. Explain how you ensured that the econometric estimates are reliable (and not biased), and clearly state the implications of the specific model for policy implications (i.e. what explains electricity consumption, and how we can influence it)."

?4 pages not include the graph, just work should be 4 pages.
