Unlocking the power house: policy and system change for domestic micro-generation in the UK
Unlocking the power house: policy and system change for domestic micro-generation in the UK
This report is the product of a two-year interdisciplinary research project: Unlocking the Power House. Its aim is to understand how microgeneration might be deployed, and to explore policies to support investment by consumers and energy companies. The research presented in the report was undertaken in parallel with significant policy developments, notably the government Microgeneration Strategy, the Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Act and the wider Energy Review. Despite these developments, there are significant shortcomings in current policies for micro-generation, and in the government’s broader strategies to help consumers reduce their energy demand.
