We utilize portfolio theory to derive the price of a risk (i.e., variance) reduction, then we estimate willingness to pay for the same risk reduction by analyzing stated preference data using a mean-variance specification for utility. The welfare-maximizing budget allocation is determined by equating price and willingness to pay. We use our framework to make two points. First, the welfare gains from a diversified environmental policy (i.e., one composed of multiple environmental projects) depend on society's willingness to pay for policy risk reduction and the price of a risk reduction determined by the covariance between projects. In an application to salmon restoration in Maine, we find that the welfare gains from policy diversification are equal to 5 % of society's willingness to pay for salmon restoration overall. In addition, failing to account for aversion to outcome variance may lead to underestimates of willingness to pay for environmental projects and over-investment in the riskiest projects. Failing to account for aversion to variance in the number of salmon underestimates the welfare associated with salmon restoration by over 80 % and funnels all restoration into the watershed where successful restoration is most uncertain.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51021,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Economics","volume":"239 ","pages":"Article 108750"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144781524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This can be done through demand-side flexibility (DSF) markets, where users are rewarded for shifting their energy use to times of high renewable availability. However, participation is often limited due to complex incentives and users' limited ability or willingness to shift demand. Automation offers a solution but depends on users trusting the service providers—trust that is often lacking. We propose a conceptual framework connecting user time commitment and system enabled agency, examining how this influences trust in energy governance. We consider how consumer and competition policies can reduce user vulnerability and shift where trust is placed. Using secondary data, we apply this framework to three case studies—Australia, the UK, and New York State—analysing how governance processes support user trust, reduce vulnerability, or both. Should trust be a desired outcome, policy should be designed to reduce vulnerability by providing strong protections. Equally, users should be able to \"trade\" time to build trust in the system by participating in system governance, creating agency within automation. However, trust needs to be both deserved and maintained over time by the energy institutions for the acceptance of the automation of demand-side technologies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11672,"journal":{"name":"Energy Policy","volume":"206 ","pages":"Article 114806"},"PeriodicalIF":9.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144772709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examine water consumption patterns in Hyderabad, India, with a focus on seasonal and spatial variations in daily per capita water consumption. The study employs one-sample t-tests and Classification and Regression Trees (CART) to investigate water consumption levels. A primary survey of 440 households was conducted in Hyderabad, divided into 31 circles. The perceived water usage data were collected from households to study consumption patterns. The study finds that the Service Level Benchmark (SLB) of 135 liters per capita per day (LPCD) for Indian cities corresponds to annual and winter averages at the household level. Significant variation from 135 LPCD was observed during the summer and rainy seasons in the surveyed households. Household characteristics, building characteristics, water sources, supply characteristics, coping mechanisms, appliances, and consumer behavior impact water consumption in households. The study highlights the need to consider seasonal demands and spatial scales (household, circle, and city levels) for effective water management. The findings indicate that the SLB of 135 LPCD corresponds to the water demands at larger spatial scales, such as the city and the circle. However, it has limited relevance at smaller spatial scales, such as the household level. The study helps to understand how per capita water consumption varies across seasons and spatial scales in an Indian city. The study of these spatial and seasonal consumption variations helps in the effective planning and implementation of water supply projects.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23554,"journal":{"name":"Utilities Policy","volume":"96 ","pages":"Article 102017"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144772247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The former sets an economy-wide emissions target and forces firms to purchase sufficient certificates. The latter sets an emissions intensity and requires firms with a higher intensity to either abate or buy emissions allowances from firms with lower-than-target intensities. It can be shown that TPS is equivalent to CaT when carbon pricing revenues are redistributed to firms according to output. In a dynamic two-agent general equilibrium model with heterogenous production sectors, we show that TPS outperforms a CaT regime that redistributes carbon revenues to households in a lump-sum manner, both, in terms of output gains and welfare due to lower costs on the production side. However, CaT with labor tax reduction increases welfare most because it alleviates distortions on the production side and improves the income situation of all households.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48314,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Dynamics & Control","volume":"178 ","pages":"Article 105154"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144781658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
