摘要

建筑能源规范是否降低了能源消耗，其效益是否大于成本?使用2000年的人口普查数据，我估计了十年的家庭能源支出，控制了家庭和家庭特征。我发现，与上世纪70年代的房屋相比，上世纪80年代建造的房屋每年少用35美元的电，少用46美元的天然气。在萨克拉门托，能源法规在使用低端政策成本时通过了成本效益测试，但在使用基本情况成本时就失败了。本研究也阐明了一个典型家庭的成本效益分析(CBA)如何适用于一个全面的成本效益分析。

Methods in open policy analysis: An application to California's building energy codes

Have building energy codes lowered energy consumption, and have their benefits outweighed costs? Using 2000 Census data, I estimate household energy expenditures by decade of home construction, controlling for household and home characteristics. I find homes built in the 1980s used $35 less in electricity and $46 less in natural gas, per year, compared to 1970s era homes. For Sacramento, energy codes pass a cost-benefit test when low-end policy costs are used, but fail with base-case costs. This study also clarifies how a cost-benefit analysis (CBA) for a representative household fits into a comprehensive CBA.

期刊介绍： Contemporary Economic Policy publishes scholarly economic research and analysis on issues of vital concern to business, government, and other decision makers. Leading western scholars, including three Nobel laureates, are among CEP"s authors. The objectives are to communicate results of high quality economic analysis to policymakers, focus high quality research and analysis on current policy issues of widespread concern, increase knowledge among economists of features of the economy key to understanding the impact of policy, and to advance methods of policy analysis.
