  • Objective of collection: This data was originally collected to analyze quantitatively the decisions of everyday people in relation to their energy consumption and their reactions to specific political interventions.
  • Description: The dataset contains a ODS spreadsheet file containing data collected from a survey about energy consumption investments. The fields that can be found for each entry are (1) Different scenarios about the energy transition and reactions to those scenarios, (money spent on energy investments, decisions about scenarios, actions taken under a blackout, etc.) (2) Determinant factors about the chosen scenarios in the previous question, which include different choices that could affect your decision about a scenario (3) socioeconomic information about the user (age, country of residence, studies), (4) estimation of the prices of various technologies related to the energy transition and (5) descriptive statistics about the household living situation (gender of user, people living in household, yearly rent, average savings per month, type of house, size of house) and also includes questions about climate change expertise. Next you can found a description of each field in the dataset
