Abstract
This study looks at the consumer impacts of future changes in the energy landscape. It builds on work mapping out these changes and reviewing the literature on consumer impacts – both positive and negative. We have modelled the distributional consumer impacts – or who will be impacted, where, and by how much – across a subset of key policies. Impacts are presented by consumer segmentation type, employing a bespoke segmentation model developed for the Scottish Government for this purpose.
