RESUMO

Conditional demand analysis (CDA) is an econometric method that, applied to studies of consumption of energy in the household sector, allows us to estimate the demand of energy for different appliances. In this thesis, the estimation of the CDA models is made in a Bayesian framework. The truncated normal distribution is used as a prior of the parameters, assuring their nonnegativity restrictions. Since the resulting posteriors are truncated distributions too, the Gibbs sampler is applied in the estimation of those densities. The results obtained are applied to a dataset obtained from LIGHT, one of the electricity utilities of Rio de Janeiro, in order to obtain some appliances load curves.
