“…That is, as has become popular in energy research (Wu & Lampietti & Meyer, 2004;Asche & Osmundsen & Sandsmark, 2006;Douglas, 2006;Florio, 2007;Bellas & Lange, 2008), some kind of event study is applied.…”

“…Natural experiments (Meyer, 1995;Wu & Lampietti & Meyer, 2004;Asche & Osmundsen & Sandsmark, 2006;Douglas, 2006;Florio, 2007;Bellas & Lange, 2008) are a widespread research method where artificial laboratory controlled experimentation is difficult to be carried out. Of course these efficiency gains must be weighed against the costs of setting up and running trading all seven days.…”

“…Energy demand is modelled as being conditional on the existing appliance stock. The conditional energy demand or spending approach has been explored for Great Britain (Baker et al, 1989;Meier and Rehdanz, 2009), Denmark (Leth-Petersen and Togeby, 2001), Germany (Rehdanz, 2007) and for developing countries (Wu et al, 2004). Baker et al (1989) present an extension of this approach.…”

A sustainable energy policy needs to balance between the reduction of carbon emissions and protection of vulnerable households and avoid a widening of the existing "energy gap" among the consumers. This study investigates energy spending for different consumer groups, in particular focussing on vulnerable households. Vulnerable households are more likely to be affected by fuel poverty and have difficulties in warming their homes adequately. In this context we explore energy spending among households on very low incomes, including pensioners, female single parent, and benefit recipients. We describe how energy spending of these households has changed over time using a household panel dataset covering a period of 17 years, starting in 1991. We discuss the reasons that these households have higher than average energy bills and the current policy context and approaches such as the implementation of smart metres are addressed.

This series presents research findings based either directly on data from the German SocioEconomic Panel Study (SOEP) or using SOEP data as part of an internationally comparable data set (e.g. CNEF, ECHP, LIS, LWS, CHER/PACO). SOEP is a truly multidisciplinary household panel study covering a wide range of social and behavioral sciences: economics, sociology, psychology, survey methodology, econometrics and applied statistics, educational science, political science, public health, behavioral genetics, demography, geography, and sport science.The decision to publish a submission in SOEPpapers is made by a board of editors chosen by the DIW Berlin to represent the wide range of disciplines covered by SOEP. There is no external referee process and papers are either accepted or rejected without revision. Papers appear in this series as works in progress and may also appear elsewhere. They often represent preliminary studies and are circulated to encourage discussion. Citation of such a paper should account for its provisional character. A revised version may be requested from the author directly. These results are fairly robust to sensitivity analyses. Our results imply that there is potential scope for cost savings if this policy is changed.
