1 The Distributional Effects of Building Codes Chris Bruegge Stanford University Tatyana Deryugina University of Illinois and NBER Erica Myers University of Illinois and E2e June 2, 2017
2 Research Questions 1. How much energy do building codes save? 2. Which parts of the income distribution are most affected by the codes?
3 ...comparisons between residences constructed just before and after an increase in the stringency of Florida s energy code in We find that the code change is associated with a decrease in the consumption of electricity by 4% and natural gas by 6%. Jacobsen and Kotchen, ReStat 2013
4 compare current electricity use by California homes of different vintages constructed under different standards...[and find ] no evidence that homes constructed since California instituted its building energy codes use less electricity today than homes built before the codes came into effect Levinson, AER 2016 (Citation from NBER WP Version)
5 Challenges Temporal Variation in Code Stringency Can t separate home vintage from code stringency: Jacobsen and Kotchen (2013), Levinson (2016) Spatial Variation in Code Stringency Cross-state differences: Aroonruengsawat et al. (2012), Levinson (2016)
6 Our Innovation
7 Current Findings 1. How much energy do building codes save? Electric savings of 3%; Gas savings of 8% 2. Which parts of the income distribution are most affected by the codes? Largest distortions at top of income distribution

17 Energy Savings by Income Decile Electric Savings Electric Savings per Sqft Gas Savings Gas Savings per Sqft
18 Attribute Distortions
19 Why Size Might Be Affected Proposed plans compared to reference home with same square-footage Reference home assumed to be square Conductive heat loss proportional to surface area
20 Conclusion Today Novel identification, Herculean data collection Savings between 3-8% Distortions in high end of income distribution In Progress Incorporating weather data
