英文摘要:
From both global and local perspectives, there are strong reasons to promote energy efficiency. These reasons have prompted leaders in the European Union (EU) and countries of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) to adopt policies to move their citizenry toward more efficient energy consumption. Energy efficiency policy is typically framed at the national, or transnational level. Policy makers then aim to incentivize microeconomic actors to align their decisions with macroeconomic policy. We suggest another path towards greater energy efficiency: Highlighting individual benefits at microeconomic level. By simulating lighting, heating and cooling operations in a model single-family home equipped with modest automation, we show that individual actors can be led to pursue energy efficiency out of enlightened self-interest. We apply simple-to-use, easily, scalable impact indicators that can be made available to homeowners and serve as intrinsic economic, environmental and social motivators for pursuing energy efficiency. The indicators reveal tangible homeowner benefits realizable under both the market-based pricing structure for energy in Germany and the state-subsidized pricing structure in Algeria. Benefits accrue under both the continental climate regime of Germany and the Mediterranean regime of Algeria, notably in the case that cooling energy needs are considered. Our findings show that smart home technology provides an attractive path for advancing energy efficiency goals. The indicators we assemble can help policy makers both to promote tangible benefits of energy efficiency to individual homeowners, and to identify those investments of public funds that best support individual pursuit of national and transnational energy goals.

中文摘要:
从全球和当地的角度来看,有充分的理由促进能源效率。这些原因促使欧盟(EU)和中东及北非国家(MENA)领导人采取政策,推动其公民提高能源消费效率。能源效率政策通常是在国家或跨国层面制定的。然后,政策制定者的目标是激励微观经济行为者使其决策与宏观经济政策相一致。我们提出了提高能源效率的另一条途径:强调微观经济层面的个人利益。通过模拟一个配备适度自动化的模型独户家庭的照明、供暖和制冷操作,我们表明,可以引导个体参与者出于开明的私利追求能效。我们采用简单易用、易于扩展的影响指标,可供房主使用,并作为追求能效的内在经济、环境和社会动力。这些指标揭示了在德国基于市场的能源定价结构和阿尔及利亚的国家补贴定价结构下可实现的有形房主利益。德国的大陆性气候制度和阿尔及利亚的地中海制度都带来了好处,尤其是在考虑冷却能源需求的情况下。我们的研究结果表明,智能家居技术为推进能效目标提供了一条有吸引力的途径。我们收集的指标既可以帮助决策者促进能源效率给个人房主带来切实的好处,也可以帮助他们确定公共资金的哪些投资最能支持个人追求国家和跨国能源目标。
