The coming energy transition in residential neighbourhoods is the result of the increasing cost of CO2 emission and the decreasing costs of solar PhotoVoltaics (PV) and alternative techniques of residential heating, namely Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and heat pump. The optimal transition is...

Households adopt solar panels for different reasons, but always with a reduced electricity bill in mind. However, the access to solar power at near zero marginal costs may well induce rebound effects which shift households' demand curve and distort the net effects of solar PV investments. By...

In this paper, we explore the development of financing and subsidies for renewable energy in three fossil-fuelled European countries: Poland, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. Financing for renewable energy is an existing arena involving multi-actor activities and practices that develop...

The development of a country cannot be realized only through the amount of energy it produces and its industrialization. In a country where its people are left homeless and poor, and its cultural and natural riches are destroyed, the electricity produced is not a measure of development on its...
