Samenvatting:
Three recent policy schemes for energy conservation in the Netherlandshave been studied to assess the quality and the size of their employment
impacts. These are the subsidy for high-efficiency (HR) boilers in the
context of the Environmental Action Plan (MAP), Energy Management Systems in
the industrial sector as part of the subsidy program TIEB (Tender for
Industrial Energy conservation), and the Energy Performance Standard EPN, a
regulation that sets demands on the energy performance of new dwellings.
Because figures on the employment impacts were not readily available all case
studies have involved interviews to estimate these impacts and many
assumptions had to be made for a quantitative assessment. Although no solid
figure results on the exact number of jobs created, the studies do give an
indication of the quantity of work involved and do provide insight in the
nature of the employment generated and the skills required for the work that
results from these energy conservation policies. 22 refs.
