Rund die Hälfte des Endenergieverbrauchs in Nordrhein-Westfalen entfiel 2020 nach Angaben von IT.NRW (2023) auf die Sektoren Private Haushalte (26%) und Verkehr (23%). Haushalte verwenden Energie insbesondere für die Erzeugung von Raumwärme und Warmwasser, aber auch zur Beleuchtung ihrer...

The majority of energy renovations of houses cost more than they increase the sales price. This holds particularly in the metropolitan area and Aarhus, but also in a number of rural areas. Renovations that increase the sales price more than the renovation costs reduce CO2 emissions only...

Using industrial excess heat for residential heating can increase energy efficiency and thus be part of the solution to achieving the EU's climate targets. However, industrial plants are often located in industrial areas and thus away from residential areas. Therefore, the excess heat has to be...

The price of natural gas has risen significantly since the summer of 2021. Higher heating costs may put downward pressure on homes heated with gas. Seen in isolation, the average price drop will be DKK 73,000 for a house with gas, if the gas price develops in line with the expectations of...

[Einleitung ...] Dieses Kurzpapier diskutiert einige wichtige Optionen, mit welchen Maßnahmen die kurzfristigen Einsparpotenziale von Erdgas gehoben werden können, und die gleichzeitig geeignet sind, auch die mittel- und langfristigen Potenziale zu adressieren. Das Papier konzentriert sich...

Rund die Hälfte des Endenergieverbrauchs in Nordrhein-Westfalen entfiel 2019 nach Angaben von IT.NRW (2022) auf die Sektoren Private Haushalte (25%) und Verkehr (24%). Haushalte verwenden Energie insbesondere für die Erzeugung von Raumwärme und Warmwasser, aber auch zur Beleuchtung ihrer...

This paper examines how the price of home heating affects mortality in the US. Exposure to cold is one reason that mortality peaks in winter, and a higher heating price increases exposure to cold by reducing heating use. It also raises energy bills, which could affect health by decreasing other...

Half of American households heat their homes with natural gas furnaces and 43% use it to heat their water. Hence, understanding residential natural gas consumption behavior has become a first-order problem. In this paper, we provide the first ever causally identified, microdata-based estimates...

Household air pollution is the second leading cause of disease in Madagascar, where more than 99 percent of households rely on solid biomass, such as charcoal, wood, and crop waste, as the main cooking fuel. Only a limited number of studies have looked at the emissions and health consequences of...

Residential buildings strongly contribute to global CO2 emissions due to the high energy demand for electricity and heating, particularly in industrialised countries. Within the EU, decentralised heat generation is of particular relevance for future climate policy, as its emissions are not...
