• Energy Efficiency Investments in the Home: Swiss Homeowners and Expectations about Future Energy Prices (2013, background): “…institutional disincentives, which may occur when the party making the investment is not the one that reaps the benefits of that investment (e.g., landlords and renters; see Levinson and Niemann (2004) and Houser et al. (2009), and (v) liquidity constraints (see Golove and Eto, 1996, for a review).”
• The role of information for energy efficiency in the residential sector (2015, unknown): “With data from the Residential Energy Consumption Survey and the American Housing Survey, Levinson and Niemann (2004) analyzed the incidence of the principal-agent problem on the temperature set by households in winter.”
• Environmental regulation of households: An empirical review of economic and psychological factors (2008, background): “Levinson and Niemann (2004) consider the very common situation that tenantsmake energy use decisionswhile landlords pay for the utilities which include energy costs.”
• The Greenness of Cities: Carbon Dioxide Emissions and Urban Development (2008, unknown): “Across areas, emissions are positively associated with July temperature, negatively associated with January temperature, and negatively associated with both city population and centralization.”
• Quantifying the Effect of the Principal-Agent Problem on US Residential Energy Use (2006, background): “…of a master meter serving multiple housing units although a significant number of individually metered units also have utilities included in rent (Levinson and Niemann 2004). b There may also be an efficiency problem if three parties are involved: one who chooses the device, one who pays the…”
• Residential energy use and conservation: Economics and demographics (2012, background): “We focus on homeowners, as we lack critical information on rental units, such as dwelling characteristics, and the type of rental contract – net or gross – which may have a substantial influence on energy consumption (as emphasized by Levinson and Niemann, 2004).”
• Determinants of residential space heating expenditures in Germany (2007, background): “Levinson and Niemann (2004) found evidence that rents are higher when energy costs are included, but the difference is smaller than the cost of the energy used.”
• Internal and external barriers to energy efficiency: which role for policy interventions? (2019, background): “In particular, utility-included rents contribute to lower effort in energy conservation of tenants (Levinson and Niemann 2004; Maruejols and Young 2011; Elinder et al. 2017).”
