The aim of this study is to link variation in energy cost misperceptions to variation in households' energy consumption …. The focus is on two sorts of misperceptions: First, present biased discounting of future energy costs and second, biased … energy price beliefs. By running an artefactual field experiment with a representative sample of 711 participants, we gather …

buildings. Credit constraints are a barrier to investments in the energy efficiency of firms' production processes. Furthermore …We analyze the drivers and barriers that influence investments increasing the energy efficiency of firms' production … processes or buildings in the German manufacturing sector based on microdata. In particular, we shed light on the relationship …

Increasing energy efficiency is one of the main goals in current German energy and climate policies. We study the … determinants of energy efficiency in the German manufacturing sector based on official firm-level production census data. By means … of a stochastic frontier analysis, we estimate the cost-minimizing energy demand function at the two-digit industry level …

This paper investigates the impact of global value chains on energy footprints. Energy footprints are consumption …-based indicators which record the energy used to produce a country's final demand. In order to disentangle key characteristics of … global value chains and their effects on the global energy footprint, we employ structural decomposition analyses (SDA …

in a large-scale field experiment that cross-randomizes energy efficiency subsidies with information about the financial … ambiguous and highly dependent on the information design. Informing consumers that an LED saves 90% in annual energy costs …
