家庭能源消费是国家能源政策的关键。本文分析了四项主要联邦住房援助计划中涵盖公用事业成本的规则如何改变房东和租户对能效投资和节能的激励。我们得出的结论是，相对于市场价格的住房，援助计划对房东和租户在能效投资和节能方面提供的激励较小，而公用事业更有可能被包括在租金中。利用美国住房调查的数据，我们研究了受资助和不受资助的低收入租房者在公用事业账单安排上的差异，发现即使在控制可观察到的建筑和租户差异的情况下，受资助的租户支付的租金更有可能包括公用事业。在所有将水电费和租金分开支付的租户中，有援助的租户和没有援助的租户在能源支出方面的显著差异是由单位、建筑和家庭特征驱动的，而不是由政府援助的收入驱动的。
Household energy consumption is crucial to national energy policy. This article analyzes how the rules covering utility costs in the four major federal housing assistance programs alter landlord and tenant incentives for energy efficiency investment and conservation. We conclude that, relative to market-rate housing, assistance programs provide less incentive to landlords and tenants for energy efficiency investment and conservation, and utilities are more likely to be included in the rent. Using data from the American Housing Survey, we examine the differences in utility billing arrangements between assisted and unassisted low-income renters and find that—even when controlling for observable building and tenant differences—the rent that assisted tenants pay is more likely to include utilities. Among all tenants who pay utility bills separately from rent, observable differences in energy expenses for assisted and unassisted tenants are driven by unit, building, and household characteristics rather than the receipt of government assistance.
