House Insulation: Perceived Needs and Willingness in Central Asia
Decisions to insulate are more likely to be made in rural rather than urban areas, while construction materials and heating sources significantly influence the decision to insulate.
We assess the willingness of Central Asian households to insulate their homes and the factors influencing this decision by utilizing Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) Institute data from the “Household Access to Energy in The Fergana Valley” survey, which was conducted in 2023. We address key research questions regarding household decision-making processes and the impact of energy-saving behavior. The empirical findings reveal key factors influencing household insulation decisions. Urban residence negatively affects insulation decisions, indicating that such decisions are more likely to be made in rural than in urban areas. Older household heads are less likely to undertake insulation measures, while construction materials and heating sources significantly influence insulation decisions. Additionally, the energy-saving behavior index positively influences insulation decisions, indicating the potential for promoting energy-saving practices to encourage broader adoption of insulation measures. Given these empirical findings, the policy recommendations include developing tailored interventions to promote insulation practices for vulnerable groups with greater needs and willingness to insulate. These groups include rural households, those with higher heating expenditures, those using solid or fossil fuels for heating, and low- to middle-income households.
