UKERC Review of evidence for the rebound effect: Technical report 2: Econometric studies

This Working Paper examines the evidence for direct rebound effects that is available from studies that use econometric techniques to analyse secondary data. The focus throughout is on consumer energy services, since this is where the bulk of the evidence lies.
