Abstract
Improvement of consumption pattern is the best way for decrease energy consumption. In this paper, for aim of identification wasteful and useless provinces, from dynamic panel method for period of 2006-2014 is used for useless and wasteful provinces and survey prejudice between provinces with comparison of price elasticities of petroleum demand. Equivalent value method is used to survey effects of petroleum price increasing in different scenarios. Results reveal that in short run with one percent increase in petroleum price, it's consumption decreases 0/23% in wasteful provinces and 0/18% in useless provinces. EV in useless provinces ise^(33/11) and e^(67/65)in wasteful provinces which shows that petroleum consumers perceive from rise of petroleum real price in wasteful provinces more than useless provinces.Therefore petroleum consumption is affected in different provinces with price prejudice.
