Disruption and mess associated with energy efficiency retrofits is one aspect that is rarely considered in studies investigating households' preferences for energy renovations. Using a choice experiment, we estimate a price for residential retrofit disruption, finding it represents a substantial...

This paper evaluates the extent with which Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) reflect observed energy used for heating. We use high-frequency smart thermostat panel data in combination with building characteristics and hourly weather information. We exploit variations in boiler operation in...

This paper studies the determinants of why low-income households in Ireland abandon energy efficiency retrofit applications using administrative data from a targeted energy efficiency grant. By applying for the scheme the applicants overcome any financial barriers for undertaking retrofits and...
