Abstract: |
Designing sustainable energy
policies has a strong impact on economy, society and environment. Beside a
planning activity, policy makers are called to design a number of implementation
instruments to enforce their plans. They encompass subsidies, fiscal
incentives, feed in tariffs to name a few. Understanding the impact of these
instruments on the energy market is essential to select the most efficient
one. We propose in this paper a multi-agent simulator that mimics the
adoption of photovoltaic as a consequence of a number of implementation
instruments. The simulator mainly considers economic evaluations in the agent
decision-making procedure, but we are aware also social aspects play an
important role and they are subject of current research. |
