Abstract

Policies to encourage carpooling in high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes have been adopted in the United States to lower congestion and reduce air pollution. We analytically model highway congestion and other vehicle-related externalities. Encouraging carpooling decreases total costs when congestion relief in mainline lanes outweighs increased HOV lane congestion. Importantly, entry of new drivers via induced demand can negate the benefits of increased carpooling. Using 10 years of traffic data from Los Angeles we estimate time and route-specific marginal external costs. Because costs vary substantially across routes, hours, and days, current policies to promote carpooling will often increase social costs. (JEL R41, R48, Q53), I. INTRODUCTION External costs from traffic congestion in the United States exceed $120 billion per year (Schrank, Lomax, and Eisele 2012). While a number of cities have implemented some limited [...]

Abstract

Purpose: Residential buildings have been reported as the main contributor of carbon dioxide (C[O.sub.2]) emission worldwide. Existing homeowners most nations are either made to meet the zero mandatory or voluntary standards of such emission. One way of addressing this issue, they are encouraged to retrofit their residential properties with low carbon (LC) features. Design/methodology/approach: This paper reviews researches related to LC retrofits in Residential Homes within the last 15 years (i.e. from 2000 to 2015). Findings: The review reveals that LC housing studies have two primary focuses: methods and frameworks of implementing LC retrofit. Other aspects also include benefits, challenges, and sustainability assessment. The findings suggest that a variety of research on renovations/retrofits to reduce energy and C[O.sub.2] emissions for existing housing residential stocks has been conducted, but most of them pay little attention to consumer behavior. Minimal research has been done on how homeowners make decision in retrofitting their residential property with LC solutions. Originality /value: This paper is to understand how the consumers make choices instead of the solving problem. Keywords: Low Carbon; Retrofitting; Housing; Residential; Sustainable Retrofits; Reducing Carbon Emissions Paper Type: Literature Review, Introduction 'We drastically need to cut emissions from all sectors, but the built environment offers the best cost effective opportunity to do that. We have the technology and the know-how [...]
