Sumario:This study aims to estimate the price and income elasticities of residential demand, industrial and commercial power of the Brazilian regions during the period 2000 to 2015. Assuming that technological advancement, economic growth and improving the quality of life in the country imply changes in price and income elasticities of demand for electricity. To this end, we used the methodology of panel data, estimated by the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) in a version known as System-GMM. The results showed that the income elasticity of the class of industrial consumption showed the highest values in all regions examined, compared with the other classes studied. It was further observed that the commercial class was the one that recorded the greatest impact on the price elasticity in all Brazilian regions, which do not differ much from the analyzes that have occurred in other studies, however with other methodologies.
