Abstract:
This dissertation explores the effects of various informational policy interventions in a number of energy markets. Using a number of trials and surveys, this research aims to highlight a household’s underlying energy-reducing motivations, the presence of market failures related to imperfect or asymmetric information and the effect and justification for informational policy intervention. Chapter 1 introduces this dissertation, discusses the specific research questions explored and provides a brief description of the background to energy-related research of this kind (climate change).
