Abstract

This paper presents the results of a household survey about individual heating conducted in Serbia in 2020. The objective of the survey was to examine the details of individual heating systems in households and households’ attitudes regarding the energy transition. The results indicate the obsolescence of the heating system, low efficiency, insufficient investment in the implementation of energy efficiency measures, and lack of funds for investment in sustainable heating. The main priorities when choosing a mode of heating are heating system costs and fuel costs, while the impacts of environmental factors and energy transition awareness are relatively weak. The cost of heating systems has also been identified as the biggest barrier to replacing existing systems. On the other hand, about half of households have a positive attitude towards potentially subsidizing the replacement of current heating systems with new and more efficient ones.
