Transitioning to a low-carbon economy implies both risks and opportunities in the Danish housing sector, which accounts for one fourth of Denmark's CO2 emissions. We study the heterogeneous impacts on house prices of rising energy prices and energy renovations by combining micro-level data on...

The majority of energy renovations of houses cost more than they increase the sales price. This holds particularly in the metropolitan area and Aarhus, but also in a number of rural areas. Renovations that increase the sales price more than the renovation costs reduce CO2 emissions only...

Examples of simple economic theory models are analyzed as restrictions on the Cointegrated VAR (CVAR). This establishes a correspondence between basic economic concepts and the econometric concepts of the CVAR: The economic relations correspond to cointegrating vectors and exogeneity in the...
