“…To boost the usage of OSS for home energy renovation, it is necessary to show its benefits of high‐quality outcomes and cost‐efficiency (Mahapatra et al, 2019). Moreover, since the projects include significant trust, one of the decision success factors is the reliability of the stakeholders involved (Mahapatra et al, 2013).…”

The Paris Agreement goals require net-zero CO 2 emissions by mid-century. The European Commission in its recent proposal for climate and energy strategy for 2050 indicated the need for more intensified actions to substantially improve the energy performances of buildings. With the rate of new construction in Europe, the challenge is to increase both the pace and depth of building energy renovations. Several barriers inhibit the wide uptake of comprehensive energy renovations, including the inability or inertia to finance upfront costs of energy renovations. Despite various policies implemented to address some of these barriers, current investments in buildings remain at suboptimal levels. The paper reviews current financing practices for energy renovations and investigates some innovative instruments with a special focus on their applicability to residential buildings. In addition to "traditional" financial schemes such as subsidies, tax incentives, and loans, the paper assesses innovative financing schemes: On property tax and on-bill financing, energy efficiency mortgages, and energy efficiency feed-in tariffs. The paper also investigates the concept of one-stop shops for building renovations and crowdfunding. The paper offers an assessment of the characteristics, benefits, and challenges of each analyzed financing instrument and provides policy recommendations for their successful implementation. In general, as financing instruments involve different stakeholders and due to complex nature of the sector, there is no single solution to accelerate energy renovation investment in buildings. The emerging financial models offer the potential to address the long-standing barriers to investment in energy efficiency.

“…The authors found a general low interest in the OSSs offering package solutions to encourage renovation decisions in detached houses, highlighting the need to adjust the OSSs concept to the local context, as the market for detached houses is very context-specific. , Mahapatra et al (2019) and Pardalis et al (2021) investigated the same household types, conducting an online survey. In addition to exploring the causal relationships among variables underlying the decision to renovate with a structural equation modelling approach, the authors found that only a specific segment of the population showed an interest in the OSSs, namely the middle-aged and with higher income and education, suggesting the need for customizing renovation package solution based on socio-demographics.…”

“…There was also the 'spin-off' effect, which is presumably caused by increased media attention, peer effects and increased visibility in the region. Moreover, the project was highly appreciated by the participants, especially the all-in-one offer of the municipalities, which is something that has been suggested previously for the wider scope of energy renovation measures (Mahapatra et al 2019). In addition, other benefits of the project are reduced carbon emissions, increased energy security, decreased energy bills, local economic activity and job opportunities.…”

Not all homeowners are alike: a segmentation model based on a quantitative analysis of Dutch adopters of residential photovoltaics

The implementation of residential photovoltaics must increase more rapidly to combat climate change and its impacts. This challenge is addressed in this study by introducing a segmentation model in order to develop a theoretical and empirical foundation for understanding the heterogeneity of potential adopters. Data were collected by means of a survey among Dutch adopters (n = 1395) and the data is analysed with statistical descriptive analyses and nonparametric tests. The five segmentation groups are divided by the homeowners’ educational background or profession (technical, financial-economic or other) and level of environmental concern. The results demonstrate that the groups are substantial in size and that there are significant differences between these groups on personal characteristics such as homeowners’ level of environmental concern and the level of influence of their social network on their decision to adopt. In addition, significant differences are found between the groups on the perceived characteristics of the residential photovoltaics such as perceived complexity and aesthetics, and the amount of previous practice with other energy measures in their home. Accordingly, these insights can be used by policymakers and the public and private sectors to promote residential photovoltaics more effectively by targeting the segmentation groups more adequately. The different groups will be drawn to different aspects and therefore, a broader pallet of benefits must be presented; a mix of different communication channels must be used; objective and non-technical assistance in the decision-making must be offered; and different kind of products must be provided.
