The current study examines the relationship between the world oil price and aggregate demand in a developing country, Ghana, via the interest rate channel by means of cointegration analysis. Results of the study indicate that oil price—by impacting the price level positively—negatively impacts real output. The results also indicate that monetary …

As a consequence there is minimal seasonality in electricity demand in Ghana. Generally aggregate domestic electricity consumption continues to increase sharply in the country. For instance between the periods …
Introduction. Sand, gravel, and crushed stone (collectively referred to herein as aggregates) are the most in-demand materials on the planet in terms of volume. 1, 2 Together, they are a central foundation of our economies and integral to sectors such as construction, infrastructure, electronics, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. 3 The growing …
Ghana has seen significant growth in infrastructure development and industrialization in recent years, fueling strong demand for construction aggregates. As the backbone of the nation's building material needs, the aggregate industry relies heavily on high-quality crushed stone to meet specification requirements.
It is difficult to predict the demand for most things, including aggregate, decades into the future. One reason that long-run projections of the demand for mined aggregate are treacherous is that technological improvements may enable a more efficient use of aggregate or the substitution of other materials, including recycled aggregate, …
Sand, gravel, and crushed stone, collectively referred to as aggregates, are the most mined materials on Earth and constitute the foundation for modern civilization. Aggregates are essential for providing shelter (concrete buildings), movement (transport infrastructure), and communication (silica-based electronic devices). We review the interconnections …

The current study examines the relationship between the world oil price and aggregate demand in a developing country, Ghana, via the interest rate channel by means of cointegration analysis. Results of the study indicate that oil price - by impacting the price level positively - negatively impacts real output.

On the other hand, the unprecedented urbanization process has led to a huge demand for construction materials from stone mines or quarries (Bui et al., 2020a).
Resource availability and extraction seem to present a paradox to most countries in the global south. It appears to be a curse rather than a blessing. Using the resource curse theory as a philosophical lens, this study qualitatively analysed the effects of the stone quarrying industry in the Wenchi municipality of Ghana. Using the case study …
