Abstract

Energy retrofitting of private housing is fundamental to reducing the environmental footprint of the building stock, and energy efficiency policies are based on assumptions of the effects of retrofitting, including those on further retrofitting, also called temporal spillover. No study has directly investigated the impact of energy retrofitting on future energy retrofits.
