英文摘要Immense retrofit efforts are needed to align the UK's existing residential stock with the country's Net Zero by 2050 target. A factor that could hinder the effectiveness of these retrofits is the rebound effect - estimated to range from 15 to 100 %, with recent studies showing energy savings associated with retrofits vanishing after four years. This paper introduces, for the first time, a novel tariff structure, based on Increasing Block Tariffs (IBTs), that aims to mitigate the rebound of energy retrofits and improve social equity within the UK's residential sector. The proposed tariff is linked to the energy efficiency of the dwelling in which a household resides as well as the household's size and income, whereby the tariff increases progressively as the household's income rises. The paper introduces an econometric model for the UK's existing residential stock covering the period 2017-2035. The results show that while a rebound of 14 %-54 % occurs under a conventional tariff, the proposed tariff reduces this to 0 %. For energy poverty, 21 % of UK households are considered 'energy -poor' under the conventional tariff in 2017, compared with 0 % throughout the modelling period under the proposed tariff. The research has important implications for policy makers in that it demonstrates how the energy efficiency levels required for a below 2 degrees C climate change trajectory can be achieved in a socially -just manner.
