Assessing the impact of solar PV on domestic electricity consumption: Exploring the prospect of rebound effects

This study examines patterns of electricity use by households in Sydney who have installed solar photovoltaic (PV) technology compared to those who have not in order to assess the impact of government solar incentive schemes, and to identify whether conservation or rebound (increased consumption) effects are associated with rooftop PV.

This year our Annual Forum will be held at the #Adelaide National Wine Centre on 19-20 November. It will highlight how our #lowcarbon #research is becoming #reality and making an impact. More to come, but for now, save the date! @abcadelaide @9NewsAdel @adelaidenow @theTiser pic.twitter.com/TsNLVqV8pZ

#CRCLCL project @Climate_Clever has helped #WA #school #students measure and reduce their school’s #carbon #footprint, saving almost $30,000 collectively on utility bills - now it's coming to #NSW and you're invited to the launch @AECOM. https://t.co/Fj7hY0SypU @vanessarauland pic.twitter.com/blzJvr9ow7
