General equilibrium impact of an energy-saving policy in the public sector
Hamdi-Cherif, Meriem; Quirion, Philippe - HAL - 2007
We analyse a disregarded environmental policy instrument: a switch in government expenditure away from energy (or other natural resources) and toward a composite good which includes energy-saving expenditure. We first develop two variants of an analytical general equilibrium model. A composite...

Comparing and combining energy saving policies : Will proposed residential sector policies meet French official targets ?
Giraudet, Louis-Gaëtan; Guivarch, Céline; Quirion, … - HAL - 2011
This paper assesses the impact of French policies for residential space-heating energy consumption, both enacted (tax credits for the purchase of energy efficient durables, soft loans for retrofitting actions, stringent building codes) and anticipated (carbon tax, retrofitting obligation). It...

Heavy subsidization reduces free-ridership : Evidence from an econometric study of the French dwelling insulation tax credit
Nauleau, Marie-Laure - HAL - 2013
This econometric study assesses the efficiency of the tax credit implemented in France in 2005 on dwelling retrofitting investments. A before-after estimation is performed at the extensive and intensive margins on micro data over 2001-2011, focusing on insulation measures (windows, walls, roofs,...

Sensitivity analysis of an energy-economy model of the residential building sector
Branger, Frédéric; Giraudet, Louis-Gaëtan; Guivarch, … - HAL - 2014
In this paper, we discuss the results of a sensitivity analysis of Res-IRF, an energy-economy model of the demand for space heating in French dwellings. Res-IRF has been developed for the purpose of increasing behavioral detail in the modeling of energy demand. The different drivers of energy...

A Brighter Future? Quantifying the Rebound Effect in Energy Efficient Lighting
Schleich, Joachim; Mills, Bradford; Dütschke, Elisabeth - HAL - 2014
Abstract: This paper quantifies the direct rebound effects associated with the switch from incandescent lamps (ILs) or halogen bulbs to more energy efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) or light emitting diodes (LEDs) using a large nationally representative survey of German households. The...

White certificate schemes : the static and dynamic efficiency of an adaptive policy instrument
Giraudet, Louis-Gaëtan; Finon, Dominique - HAL - 2011
White certificate schemes mandate energy companies to promote energy efficiency through flexibility mechanisms, including the trading of energy savings. They can be characterized as a quantity-based, baseline-and-credit system for the diffusion of energy efficient technologies. This paper offers...
