Theme 2: Households

The household perspective: household decision-making
This study aims to improve the understanding of the behavioral drivers of household decision-making. This is crucial for explaining and predicting the energy choices made by households and the possible interventions that can stimulate the transition process towards the uptake of cleaner and more efficient fuels and technologies in an East African context. To this end, a household model will be developed with specific attention for intra-household decision-making, bargaining power and the household decision environment.
