Is there a Lack of Incentives to Invest in Energy Efficient Buildings?

Speaker: Professor Franz Fuerst, Department of Land Economy, University of Cambridge

The speaker will present for around 30 minutes, followed by a response from Dr Jim Platts, IfM and then a Q&A session with the audience members.

A sandwich lunch is provided from 12-12.30pm before the seminar begins, which is open to all and no registration is required. 

The “In Search of ‘Good’ Energy Policy” seminar series is one of the Research Networks supported and hosted at the Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH). What constitutes a ‘good’ policy is conditioned not only by technology and financial factors but also by social norms and values, institutions, geopolitics, public trust and history.

The seminar series explores energy policy themes from different disciplinary perspectives - economics, history, philosophy, theology, politics, law, anthropology, psychology, engineering - with the aim of identifying principles and processes for ‘good’ energy policy making.
