Changes in energy consumption behaviour of households are recognised as a main contributor to reduced energy demand in developed countries. We investigate the economy-wide impacts of a more efficient electricity consumption behaviour in the presence of demand rigidities and consumption habits....

Empirical findings indicate that a large share of households misperceives electricity prices and is not able to make deliberate choices in energy service consumption, which leads to biased consumption decisions and thus to inefficient energy use. To investigate the impact of misperceived...
