  4. Rebound effect: Dependency on three dimensionless parameters 1. The price elasticity of the energy service 2. The profitability of the energy efficiency investment (investment / break-even investment) 3. The relative energy intensity of the energy service (in relation to the marginal energy intensity of consumption)

  5. ”Small car” ”Hybrid car” Ex. results Rebound effect for private transport Energy service price elasticity Profitability

  6. Quantification of rebound effects: 5 - 15 % for most investments Low - for early adoption of expensive technologies Low - if service demand is saturated High - up to 50 % for downsizing options High - for some radical innovations

  7. Swedish household consumption and energy use, 2006 Based on Swedish Household Budget Survey (2006) and input-output analysis of energy use

  8. + 10 % income  + 9 % energy use (also in multi-variate regression)

  9. Large variation

  10. Large variation High energy intensity (decile) Low energy intensity (decile)

  11. Large variation High energy intensity (decile) Factor 3.5 Low energy intensity (decile)

  12. Household consumption

  13. Household consumption

  14. I vilken riktning utvecklas konsumtionen?

  15. ?

  16. The effect of work hours on energy use • A micro-analysis of: • Income effects: marginal consumption of changing income • Time effects: marginal activity change of changing work time

  17. Energy intensity (MJ/hr) for different activities Calculated from Swedish Time Use Survey (2000/2001), Swedish Household Budget Survey (2006), and input-output analysis of energy use.

  18. Marginal time use

  19. Results • Income effect >> Time effect • A change in work time by 1 % cause a change in energy use by 0.8 % on average

  33. Demand side: 7 interviews with 9 customers Supply side: interviews with Swedish car producers, BilSweden, importers and dealers. Interview study

  34. Demand side It’s fun to own a car! The same or better car as previous + environmental concern Two environmental corncerns: One that acknowledges a trade off between performance and environmental concern One that does not acknowledge a trade off

  35. Demand side Environment Economy Emotion Elemental

  36. Supply side Customer or producer – who defines what cars are sold? Emotions important when selling cars Supplier acknowledge that customers have an increased environmental concern – this is seen as a paradigm shift There is a close relation with policy makers

  37. Tentative conclusions There is a challenge in making the environmental concern durable Regulations are important for long term stearing The media attention on climate change has acted as a facilitator for stricter regulations
