Impact of service station networks on purchase decisions of alternative-fuel vehicles
Achtnicht, Martin; Bühler, Georg; Hermeling, Claudia - 2012
In this paper, we study the impact of fuel availability on demand for alternative-fuel vehicles, using data from a survey of some 600 potential car buyers in Germany. The survey was conducted as a computer-assisted personal interview and included a choice experiment involving cars with various...

German car buyers' willingness to pay to reduce CO2 emissions
Achtnicht, Martin - 2009
Motorised individual transport strongly contributes to global CO2 emissions, due to its intensive usage of fossil fuels. Current political efforts addressing this issue (i.e. emission performance standards in the EU) are directed towards car manufacturers. This paper focuses on the demand side....

Do environmental benefits matter? A choice experiment among house owners in Germany
Achtnicht, Martin - 2010
Residential buildings strongly contribute to global CO2 emissions due to the high energy demand for electricity and heating, particularly in industrialised countries. Within the EU, decentralised heat generation is of particular relevance for future climate policy, as its emissions are not...

Factors influencing German house owners' preferences on energy retrofits
Achtnicht, Martin; Madlener, Reinhard - 2012
In this paper, we identify key drivers and barriers for the adoption of building energy retrofits in Germany, which is promoted by public policy as an important measure to address the future challenges of climate change and energy security. We analyze data from a 2009 survey of more than 400...

Accounting for uncertainty in willingness to pay for environmental benefits
Daziano, Ricardo A.; Achtnicht, Martin - 2013
addressing exact interval estimation. In this paper we derive and analyze Bayesian confidence sets for quantifying uncertainty in … the determination of willingness to pay for carbon dioxide abatement. We use two empirical case studies: household … mixed logit model, it is complex to define the distribution of interest for the interval estimation problem. This latter …
