Service Quality in Electricity Distribution in Brazil: A Malmquist Approach

Abstract: The paper undertakes a dynamic analysis for service quality in the electricity distribution in Brazil between 2010 and 2014 based on Malmquist indexes constructed upon Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) distance functions. The motivation for the less usual consideration of efficiency frontiers for service quality, that does not rely on traditional inputs and outputs but rather on quality indicators, builds on previous static applications in the context of telecommunications. The analysis considers undesirable tec… Show more

“…We find some interesting results. First, the main driver of TFP growth in the energy sector is catching up with the technology frontier, consistent with the results of Marinho and Resende (2019). This is demonstrated by the highly statistically significant and negative coefficients of the lagged TFP levels in all sample countries.…”

“…Estudos direcionam atenção para fomentar discussões acerca da qualidade e aspectos financeiros das distribuidoras de energia elétrica (MARINHO;RESENDE, 2016;ALBUQUERQUE et al, 2014;ALMEIDA et al, 2010;PIGNANELLI;CSILLAG, 2008). Pignanelli e Csillag (2008) buscaram analisar o efeito da qualidade no desempenho de 33 empresas participantes do Prêmio Nacional da Qualidade (PNQ), incluindo empresas distribuidoras de energia elétrica.…”

“…Os resultados da pesquisa indicam que não é possivel rejeitar a hipótese de que houve mudança na qualidade dos serviços prestados no período analisado. Ademais, ao verificar os intervalos de confiança destaca-se ainda que a produtividade diminuiu em 16 empresas e aumentou em nove (MARINHO;RESENDE, 2016).…”
