MORE EFFICIENT HOMES – MACRO ECONOMIC IMPACTS (revised)

Ámon Ada, Severnyák Krisztina

Energiaklub has decided to fill an important gap and carry out the research necessary to confirm the much anticipated positive impacts of a massive energy efficiency program and the vital measures which support it. To this end Energiaklub’s Climate Policy Institute and our partners have assessed some of the significant macro-economic effects of the Hungarian state’s energy efficiency support scheme. We have looked at the employment generation potential of energy efficiency programmes, as well as their impacts on the balance of the state budget and of foreign trade.
