Dynamic data envelopment analysis model of power generation: Latin America and the Caribbean countries

Studying the evolution of the efficiency of the electricity generation sector is a relevant task for policy makers, and requires the undesirable outputs derived from the activity to be considered inthe evaluation. In this work, we propose a dynamic slack-based Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model t...
