Abstract: We study the design of an economic incentive based program –a subsidy- to induce adoption of more efficient technology in a pollution reduction program in southern Chile. Stated preferences methods, contingent valuation (CV), and choice experiment (CE) are used to estimate the probability of adoption and the willingness to share the cost of a new technology by a household.

Keywords: Stated preferences; cost-effectiveness; environmental policy; urban pollution; households; contingent valuation; choice experiments. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
