Abstract: The choice of energy carriers by households depends mainly on their economic status. The role of the environment in which they operate is equally significant. The energy-ladder concept is used in this study to describe the way in which households climb the ladder with increase in economic status. A multilogit model has been developed to study the effects of different factors on the selection of an energy carrier for cooking or water heating. The model is then applied to explain energy-carrier choices in Bangalore.
