The evolution of energy efficiency impact on housing prices. An analysis for Metropolitan Barcelona

Abstract The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive has it made mandatory to include an energy performance certificate (EPC) on real estate advertisements so as to promote efficient properties. Previous research has found a positive correlation between residential prices and EPC’s energ...
