Accessibility

Expecting households to take steps towards the transition if they have no access to solutions (electric cars, public transport, home insulation, heating upgrades etc) results in a rejection of transition policies and leads us collectively to a dead end. The issue of access to transition solutions is therefore a major challenge for climate policies. Special attention should be paid to low-income and middle-income households, as the investments required for the transition are not always sustainable for them. 

 

I4CE assesses households’ access to transition solutions – particularly investments in deep energy retrofits and electric mobility – using several indicators. This work aims to inform public decision-makers about the level of accessibility of transition solutions for different categories of households and the means to be implemented to improve this accessibility.
