摘要

The decision to ultimately apply and invest in EEMs is mainly driven by monetary or economic factors such as gains in energy savings and the private cost of the measure. Comfort gains are found to be a secondary factor but environmental benefits of EEMs are found to be of little concern when making investment decisions. Motivations play an important role in the decision-making process of applying and adopting EEMs in the residential sector. Surprisingly, technical factors such as the ease of installations or technological feasibility seems to be not considered when applying for grants. Background characteristics, except for the household composition, have no significant effects on investments in EEMs. In general, our results highlight the importance of focusing policies mainly on the economic benefits resulting from the implementation of EEMs in households. It is also important to inform householders about the potential comfort gains resulting from adoption of these measures. Information regarding both the benefits that households could achieve with the adoption of EEMs, the availability of grants and the application process plays an important role, especially when it is provided by the authority. This can be achieved through national information campaigns. It is also important to ensure that households implementing EEMs are satisfied with the contractors and have a positive experience with the overall process of application and implementation because it was found that these are key aspects to guarantee the adoption of further EEMs. We suggest focusing on providing information about the benefits of the EEMs on energy savings and comfort improvements together with monetary incentives such as subsidies in order to increase the adoption of EEMs by households in Ireland.Regarding funding options, we found that savings are the most important source of funding for investments in EEMs, while the availability of loans does not determine adoption.Finally, determinants of EEMs investments vary considerably across measures and therefore policies would be more effective if they are idiosyncratic and differentiated. However, this may be complex to implement and further research is needed to identify policy instruments that could be most efficient.
