520 _aDescribes five scenarios for energy consumption and carbon emissions from the domestic sector up to 2050. Although traditional energy efficiency measures are examined, the paper also introduces low carbon technologies. These include the use of solar panels, photovoltaics and increased low carbon electricity generation from the national grid. A summary of the costs and savings of each of the scenarios is provided and overall it is found that the cumulative savings outweigh the costs by about 2012. It is found that each scenario would be cost-effective to society as a whole.
