Description (excerpt):

This report extends the existing empirical literature on the experiences of low-income customers exposed to critical peak pricing, and provides the first glimpses into the experiences of the elderly and those who reported being chronically ill. Specifically, we analyzed two of the time-based rate consumer behavior studies, which were co-funded by the Department of Energy as part of the Smart Grid Investment Grant program.
