It is widely believed that energy efficiency improvement is one of
the most interesting options to limit the emissions of the
greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. But, it also has become clear that
it is not easy to stimulate companies to adopt measures in this
area. Therefore, a main question is: how can governments implement
effective policies to stimulate energy-efficiency improvement? The
Netherlands and some neighbouring countries in Europe have
implemented a variety of policy instruments since 1990. These
include investment subsidies, voluntary agreements on
energy-efficiency, direct regulation and taxes. How effective are
these measures? This book presents improved theoretical insight in
the investment behaviour of firms, and moreover it provides a
wealth of empirical results on the effectiveness of policy
instruments.
