Under the subject we essentially study Depletable Resource Economics. Energy economics studies forces that lead economic agents -- firms, individuals, governments -- to supply energy resources, to convert those resources, into other useful energy forms, to transport them to the users, to use them, and to dispose of the residuals. It studies roles of alternative market and regulatory structures on these activities, economic distributional impacts and environmental consequences. It studies economically efficient provision and use of energy commodities and resources and factors that lead away from economic efficiency.
