ABSTRACT:
Investigations on the redistributive effect from energy policies to support transition towards zero emission are scarce. This research project aims to close the gap and it does with a focus on the Italian building and transport sectors. We adopt a multidisciplinary approach, with a research team of economists, engineers and statisticians cooperating together to investigate:
i) how vulnerable consumers are actively (can be) involved in scenarios for transition towards zero emissions;
ii) the effect of previous incentives for building efficiency and purchasing less polluting car in Italy, and their adoption by vulnerable consumers;
iii) a new approach to study the willingness to pay for the adoption/purchase of such new technologies for energy efficiency consumptions in buildings and cars.
We expect our results will be of interest for the design of discriminatory transition policies - addressed to specific group of consumers and, in so doing, more effective - which could thus result economically, socially and politically sustainable. In particular, we aim to provide a novel methodology to support actions of co-projecting building efficiency for social and public housing.
