Efficient energy consumption is crucial for achieving sustainable energy goals in the era of climate change and grid modernization. Thus, it is vital to understand how energy is consumed at finer resolutions such as household in order to plan demand-resp
We compare the performance of four types of support schemes aimed at improving residential energy efficiency in France: the income tax credit, a grant scheme, the reduction of the value-added tax, and the White Certificates. We use the TREMI dataset which covers close to 14,000 households that...
Climate change could significantly affect consumer demand for energy in buildings, as changing temperatures may alter heating and cooling loads. Warming climates could also lead to the increased adoption and use of cooling technologies in buildings. We assess residential electricity and natural gas demand...
However, lightweight construction and the reduction of building material are often accompanied by losses in sound and heat insulation which impair housing quality. For the construction with lightweight materials like CRC, this can be compensated by adding active materials like energy storing, ending ...
