articleElectricity consumption changes following solar adoption: Testing for a solar rebound
Economic Inquiry · 2021 · 59 citations
Abstract We use household‐level data to explore residential electricity use patterns following installation of solar panels. Solar adoption leads to an increase in total electricity consumption relative to a matched non‐adopting control group. Our point estimate translates to a rebound effect of 28.5%, suggesting that nearly a third of the electricity produced by a customer's solar panels is used for increased energy services, rather than reduced grid electricity consumption. We explore several…
A framework for localizing global climate solutions and their carbon reduction potential
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences · 2021-07-26 · 58 citations
articleOpen accessSignificance Only 22 states in the United States have climate action plans, and of these, only six consider carbon mitigation, negative emissions, and equity issues. In the absence of robust federal or state policy action, there is a need for subnational carbon abatement planning. However, many of the most robust frameworks for carbon abatement are at a global or national scale. We provide a framework for localizing an existing global roadmap of climate solutions for Georgia, a state located in…
A review of barriers in implementing dynamic electricity pricing to achieve cost-causality
Environmental Research Letters · 2020-06-08 · 48 citations
reviewOpen access1st authorCorrespondingAbstract Rapidly changing economics, customer preferences, and policy to address climate change and local environmental pollutants have driven increased deployment of a wide range of distributed energy resources in the U.S. electricity system. Distributed energy resources have enabled an expanded role for energy consumers and non-utility third parties to reshape system costs, drawing renewed attention to the potential of reforming electricity rate design based on the further application of cost-…
Contagious <scp>COVID</scp> ‐19 policies: Policy diffusion during times of crisis
Review of Policy Research · 2022-05-26 · 36 citations
articleOpen accessSenior authorCorrespondingThe COVID-19 crisis demanded rapid, widespread policy action. In response, nations turned to different forms of social distancing policies to reduce the spread of the virus. These policies were implemented globally, proving as contagious as the virus they are meant to prevent. Yet, variation in their implementation invites questions as to how and why countries adopt social distancing policies, and whether the causal mechanisms driving these policy adoptions are based on internal resources and pr…
