Exploiting Synergies between Rooftop Solar PV and Energy Efficiency Investments in the Built Environment

Exploiting Synergies between Rooftop Solar PV and Energy Efficiency Investments in the Built Environment

The synergies between rooftop solar PV (RPV) and energy efficiency (EE) investments in the built environment include lower specific transaction costs, optimized RPV systems, shorter project payback periods (compared to RPV-only projects), and, for...
