Banfi, Silvia Farsi, Mehdi Filippini, Massimo italiana, Svizzera Jakob, Martin 2008 This paper uses a choice experiment to evaluate the consumers' willingness to pay for energy-saving measures in Switzerland's residential buildings. These measures include air renewal (ventilation) systems and insulation of windows and facades. Two groups of respondents consisting respectively of 163 apartment tenants and 142 house owners were asked to choose between their housing status quo and each one of the several hypothetical situations with different attributes and prices. The estimation method is based on a fixed effects logit model. The results suggest that the benefits of the energysaving attributes are significantly valued by the consumers. These benefits include both individual energy savings and environmental benefits as well as comfort benefits namely, thermal comfort, air quality and noise protection. application/pdf https://localhost:5000/ark:/12658/srd1318051 https://susi.usi.ch/global/documents/318051 https://susi.usi.ch/documents/318051/files/filippini_EE_2007_2.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1016/j.eneco.2006.06.001 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/ark/12658/srd1318051 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Energy Economics. - Elsevier BV. - 2008, vol. 30, no. 2, p. 503-516 Energy efficiency energy saving choice experiment conjoint analysis discrete choice housing fixed effect logit info:eu-repo/classification/udc/33 Willingness to pay for energy-saving measures in residential buildings http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
