Individual household modeling of photovoltaic adoption

Letchford, Joshua L.; Lakkaraju, Kiran L.; Vorobeychik, Yevgeniy

We consider the question of predicting solar adoption using demographic, economic, peer effect and predicted system characteristic features. We use data from San Diego county to evaluate both discrete and continuous models. Additionally, we consider three types of sensitivity analysis to identify which features seem to have the greatest effect on prediction accuracy.
