Commercial energy-comparison sites are expensive and can be misleading. Some jurisdictions in which they operate try to favour non-profit alternatives to remedy this. For example, Norway's energy regulatoradvises consumersto use a non-commercial site. The government in Victoria, Australia,paid consume...
We conduct an online randomized controlled experiment in Australia in order to examine whether government initiatives to encourage the use of energy comparison sites increase consumer search and result in lower prices. Despite significant price variations across energy retailers, our experiment indicates tha...
but not to replace them. Clean power generation, mostly from wind and solar, has more than doubled in a decade, to 37% of the total. One in three Aussie households has installed PV panels on its roof—more, per person, than any other nation. By comparison, Australia...
AustraliaUKComparisonSustainableEnergyThis research highlights an interesting finding comparing energy use in the residential sector in the United Kingdom and Australia. Energy consumed per capita is largely similar, however the energy available is manifestly differ- ent. Australia is blessed with a ...
This report argues that Australia's 20 per cent Renewable Energy Target has delivered $18.5 billion in investment, with the potential for $18.7 billion more if the policy is retained in its current form. A target mandating the purchase of new renewable energy generation by retailers has been in...
comparison across a wide range of winter climates, space heating is scaled to the average number of degree-days for IEA countries (∼2700 degree-days to base 18°C). This scaling alone shows how household energy use in Japan and Australia would increase while falling in Denmark and ...
