Research Report Summary: An Analysis of the Effects of Residential Photovoltaic Energy Systems on Home Sales Prices in California
نویسندگان
چکیده
The market for photovoltaic (PV) energy systems is expanding rapidly in the U.S. Almost 100,000 PV systems have been installed in California alone, more than 90% of which are residential. Some of those “PV homes” have sold, yet little research exists estimating if those homes sold for significantly more than similar non-PV homes. A clearer understanding of these effects might influence the decisions of homeowners considering installing PV on their home or selling their home with PV already installed, of home buyers considering purchasing a home with PV already installed, and of new home builders considering installing PV on their production homes.

متن کاملOptimal Management of the Consumption Side in Household Loads Considering the Degree of Consumption Sensitivity in the Presence of Small Photovoltaic Systems
Home Energy Management (HEM) programs convince residential customers to actively participate in price-based demand response (DR) programs. In these price-oriented HEM methods, controller timing for energy consumption of home appliances in response to the electricity price signal has multiple priorities among customers. Although various methods have recently been proposed for the use of HEM, pri...
