Abstract

Zusammenfassung Die Immobilienbranche nimmt eine Schlüsselfunktion in der Klimaschutz- und Energiepolitik Deutschlands ein, da durch sie große Einsparungspotenziale bei Energieverbrauch und CO2-Emissionen identifiziert werden. Der Energieausweis stellt ein wichtiges Informationsinstrument dar, um Aufschluss über die energetische Qualität einer Immobilie zu erlangen. In der vorliegenden Studie werden die Wahrnehmung und der Einfluss des Energieausweises anhand sich ergänzender Methoden untersucht: Experteninterviews, Choice-Based Conjoint-Analyse (CBCA) und hedonisches Preismodell. Neben der Analyse hypothetischer Mietentscheidungen bei Wohnimmobilien steht auch der Preiseffekt des Energieausweises in realen Mietentscheidungen im Fokus dieser Untersuchung. Die Ergebnisse zeigen zum einen eine vergleichsweise hohe Bedeutung der energetischen Qualität einer Immobilie bei der indirekten Ermittlung von Präferenzen im Rahmen der CBCA. Zum anderen ergibt sich aufgrund des vorhandenen Bewusstseins bei der realen Mietentscheidung ein positiver Preiseffekt für energetisch effiziente Wohnungen von bis zu 7,1 %. Eine Intensivierung der Preiseffekte nach Anpassung der gesetzlichen Rahmenbedingungen spricht für eine höhere Markttransparenz durch die Einführung der Vorlagepflicht des Energieausweises. Es bestehen jedoch weiterhin Defizite in der Umsetzung, sodass abschließend Empfehlungen für eine Weiterentwicklung des Informationsinstruments gegeben werden.
