Understanding Solar PV & Battery Adoption in Ontario: An Agent-Based Approach
ACM e-Energy
The adoption of solar photovoltaic panels and batteries greatly reduces a grid customer's carbon footprint, while simultaneously reducing their dependency on conventional electricity supply. Given the significance of both outcomes, it is important to understand the potential effect of energy policies on the adoption of these 'PV-battery systems' before they are actually implemented. We therefore design and implement an Agent-Based Model (ABM) that captures the purchase and usage of PV-battery…
The adoption of solar photovoltaic panels and batteries greatly reduces a grid customer's carbon footprint, while simultaneously reducing their dependency on conventional electricity supply. Given the significance of both outcomes, it is important to understand the potential effect of energy policies on the adoption of these 'PV-battery systems' before they are actually implemented. We therefore design and implement an Agent-Based Model (ABM) that captures the purchase and usage of PV-battery systems. Focusing on Ontario, we use a survey to elicit the responsiveness of residents to potential energy policies. We parameterize the ABM based on survey results to forecast the relative performance of different energy policies. We find that PV-battery system adoption in Ontario is likely to be incremental rather than exponential. Moreover, we find that, of all the policies we evaluated, the most effective way to improve PV-battery system adoption is to significantly reduce its price.

The Relative Importance of Price and Driving Range on Electric Vehicle Adoption: Los Angeles Case Study
Transportation Journal, Springer
Electric vehicles (EVs) are still a maturing technology. Barriers to their adoption include price and range anxiety. EV batteries are significant in determining both EV prices and costs. In this work, we focus on the impact of a high-capacity battery and EV rebates on an EV ecosystem. Using survey data from Los Angeles, California, we simulate different cases of battery costs and prices by means of an agent-based EV ecosystem model. We find that even in Los Angeles, a geographically spread out…
Electric vehicles (EVs) are still a maturing technology. Barriers to their adoption include price and range anxiety. EV batteries are significant in determining both EV prices and costs. In this work, we focus on the impact of a high-capacity battery and EV rebates on an EV ecosystem. Using survey data from Los Angeles, California, we simulate different cases of battery costs and prices by means of an agent-based EV ecosystem model. We find that even in Los Angeles, a geographically spread out city, the price of EVs is a more significant barrier to adoption than EV range. In fact, even a quintupling of battery size at no additional costs improves EV adoption by only 5%. Therefore, policy makers should focus more on affordability than range in promoting EV adoption.
