资源简介:
Recent data from the United States (US) Energy Information Administration
reveals that nearly one in three households in the US report experiencing
energy poverty, and this number is only expected to rise. Federal
assistance programs exist, but allocations across states have been nearly
static since 1984, while the distribution of energy poverty is dynamic in
location and time. We produce a novel machine learning approach based on
sociodemographic and geographical information to estimate energy burden in
each US census tract for 2015 and 2020. Our analysis confirms that average
household energy burdens increased, and the range of households suffering
energy poverty broadened. We provide an optimized allocation structure to
urge policy makers to revise the distribution of funds to better match
assistance needs.
