Positive and negative spillover effects from electric car purchase to car use (2013, result): “This means that electric cars are generally bought as an additional vehicle and not as a substitute for a conventional car; a result that differs from De Haan et al. (2006) in Switzerland.”
Switching from fossil fuel to renewables in residential heating systems: An empirical study of homeowners' decisions in Germany (2014, background): “For example, there are some studies that investigate the replacement behavior of car owners (e.g. de Haan et al., 2006, Koo et al., 2012, and Nayum et al., 2012) or the choice between gasoline or diesel and alternative fuels such as sugarcane ethanol (e.g. Anderson, 2012, Pacini and Silveira, 2011,…”
ENERGY REBOUND AND ECONOMIC GROWTH: A REVIEW OF THE MAIN ISSUES AND RESEARCH NEEDS (2009, background): “For instance, after buying an energy-efficient Toyota Prius automobile, do people then either buy or keep additional cars, and does the weight of the household’s entire car fleet perhaps increase [22]? One could also ask whether a more energyefficient car is driven more than the previous one [23].”
Consumer support for environmental policies: An application to purchases of green cars (2009, background): “Whether rebound effects (because hybrid cars could replace former smaller cars, or because they could increase car ownership) are induced by hybrid vehicles, is investigated by de Haan et al. (2006).”
Spillover effects in environmental behaviors, across time and context: a review and research agenda (2017, background): “Nevertheless, this effect was not found within the hybrid car owners group (de Haan, Mueller, and Peters 2006).”
The impact of government policy on preference for NEVs: The evidence from China (2013, background): “Furthermore, some other factors, such as the maintenance costs and some other complementary expenditure related with the purchase of a NEV, may also influence the decision to adopt NEVs (Adamson, 2005; de Haan et al., 2006; Potoglou and Kanaroglou, 2007).”
How to deal with the rebound effect? A policy-oriented approach (2016, background): “…that any consumption entails non-economic costs to consumers (the value of a consumption factor other than money [e.g., time and information]) that are culturally and socially defined, including environmental values and attitudes (de Haan et al., 2005; Hofstetter et al., 2006; Jackson, 2005).”
How much do incentives affect car purchase? Agent-based microsimulation of consumer choice of new cars—Part I: Model structure, simulation of bounded rationality, and model validation (2009, methodology): “This is accomplished and discussed in de Haan et al. (2009).”
The foundations of the environmental rebound effect and its contribution towards a general framework (2016, methodology): “211 We have identified four different perspectives with unique understandings of rebound effects: 212 energy economics, ecological economics, socio-psychological and socio-technological (Binswanger, 213 2001; de Haan et al., 2005; Madjar and Ozawa, 2006; Sorrell, 2007; Walnum et al., 2014).”
