Description
Summary:This study examines several aspects of energy conservation in non-metropolitan rental housing with a focus on landlords. The study includes an analysis of data collected through a survey of rental housing owners in four non-metropolitan counties of New York State. Findings include differences in conservation behaviour and perspectives of small-scale and large-scale property owners. Some differences were also observed among landlords based on identified economic incentives. Policies targeted to different categories of landlords are recommended for the purpose of improving energy efficiency in the rental housing sector.
