Another example can be seen in cloud computing, where providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS) benefit from external economies of scale. As the industry grows, shared infrastructure and regional investments reduce operational costs for all players. These examples highlight how economies of scale enabl...
As a result, many utilities experience economies of scale large enough to constitute a natural monopoly, as many Americans have just one electricity, water or gas provider in their area. In much of the U.S., utilities are still a privately provided service and state or local government ...
Machine economies that do not limit the number of participants accordingly require registries that can scale to a high number of participants and transactions (Ali et al., 2017) while keeping the costs per modification low. As some of these modifications need to be persisted, storage costs also ...
We applied a new dynamic method, “bias-corrected method of moments estimators (2021),” for long-run outcomes. This study used the environmental Kuznets curve—approach to measure economic growth’s scale effect and technique effect to reduce energy poverty and ecological footprint. Importantly, ...
Financial support and sector traits aside, successful scaling can be the result of a start-up's ability to pivot their business model and establish strategic partnerships. These partnerships can provide value to both partners, as MNOs have reached the level of scale start-ups require while start...
Many competing factors determine the ideal mix of energy generation to support the needs of data centers. These include the amount of power needed and the availability requirements of the data center, economies of scale for building large generating reactors, LR from building multiple reactors, and...

They have established that the emissions scale of CO2 is commensurate to the size of urban population. However, there are also investigations that have established that, more recently, time urbanization does not have an impact per se, as it depends on other factors like the level of revenues,...
The first would be undoubtedly the digital revolution with new technologies, such as web and mobile technologies, which play a critical role in building large-scale sharing communities, since they offer speed of contact and of the supply–demand cycle. Practices of sharing, renting and bartering ...
