近几十年来，通过使用隔热材料和更高效的供暖和通风系统，空间供暖所需的能源已大大减少。即便如此，相似住宅之间以及实际水平与预测水平之间的能源消耗仍然存在很大差异。人们认为这些变化源于居住者行为、建筑物结构质量和反弹效应的差异。本文统计研究了与荷兰住房建筑特征相关的居住者行为差异，并探讨了供暖能源消耗可能存在的反弹效应。反弹效应可以定义为服务能源消耗的增加，而能源效率的提高降低了成本。我们发现，尽管节能住宅的能源消耗较低，但对行为变量的分析表明，其居住者往往更喜欢较高的室内温度和较少的通风。这一发现可能与乘员行为的反弹效应有关。然而，热性能和系统效率的提高仍然会导致加热能耗的减少。
The energy required for space heating has been significantly reduced in recent decades by making use of insulation and more efficient heating and ventilation systems. Even so, wide variations in energy consumption are still observed between similar dwellings and between actual and predicted levels. It is thought that these variations stem from differences in occupant behaviour, the structural quality of the building, and a rebound effect. This paper statistically examines differences in occupant behaviour in relation to the building characteristics of the housing stock in the Netherlands and explores the possible existence of a rebound effect on the consumption of energy for space heating. Rebound effect can be defined as the increase on energy consumption in services for which improvements in energy efficiency reduce the costs. We found that although energy consumption is lower in energy efficient dwellings, analysis of the behaviour variables indicates their occupants tend to prefer higher indoor temperatures and to ventilate less. This finding might be related to a rebound effect on occupant behaviour. However, the improvement of thermal properties and systems efficiency still lead to a reduction on energy consumption for heating.
