Abstract
Describes five scenarios for energy consumption and carbon emissions from the domestic sector up to 2050. In addition to the more traditional energy efficiency measures, it looks at changes to heating systems to introduce low carbon technologies, the use of solar panels and photovoltaics, and increased low carbon electricity generation from the national grid. The costs and savings of each of the scenarios, relative to the reference scenario, are examined.
