I am a post-graduate student at the University of New South Wales, Canberra campus, Australia. My doctoral research examines the factors that influence household demand in the early-stage diffusion of photovoltaic technology. It includes a cross-sectional analysis of the factors driving growth in market demand for domestic photovoltaic systems in 21 countries, two time-series case studies on the evolution of photovoltaic market demand in Australia and Germany, and a qualitative micro-study of the reasons why Canberra people decided to buy photovoltaic systems. This proposed conference paper is one of the core chapters of my PhD thesis which takes a dynamic perspective of the development of market demand in Australia and Germany over time. My research interests lie in environmental economics, innovation diffusion, and consumer demand.
