Özet
This study critically examines the effect of energy poverty on health in Turkey between 2018 and 2021 using the Income and Living Conditions Survey Longitudinal Micro Data Set. It considers the multidimensional structure of household energy poverty and its individual effects on health, resulting in several significant findings. Firstly, the multidimensional energy poverty index at the household level is obtained as a continuous variable using principal component analysis, considering subjective and objective indicators of energy poverty. Secondly, the impact of energy poverty on health at the individual level and the effect of several socioeconomic variables, including unobserved heterogeneity, are estimated with the random effects ordered logit model. Finally, commonly used measures of energy poverty in the literature and their health impacts are compared. The robustness analysis results show that the model's goodness of fit is highest when the multidimensional energy poverty index is constructed using principal component analysis. In addition, the analysis results show that unobserved heterogeneity across individuals significantly impacts health. These results indicate that decentralized policies should be implemented to increase policy effectiveness in combating energy poverty.
