Analysis of Photovoltaic Self-Consumption Systems [PDF]

open access: yesEnergies, 2016
Components and installation prices could make the self-consumption of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems competitive. In this paper, we explore different self-consumption options, off-grid PV systems (with back-up generator and/or batteries), and grid ...

Mapping symbolic (anti-) consumption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Rejection is at the heart of anti-consumption and is therefore key to some of the central relationships in symbolic consumption. However, researchers find rejection difficult to study because of the lack of material traces.

The inter-relationship between desired and undesired selves in the consumption experiences of Greek women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Earlier work on identity, self, and consumption identified that desired and undesired selves play a significant role in the important global phenomenon of symbolic consumption, but neglected to investigate and conceptualise the interrelationship between ...

Self-consumption: the interplay of autophagy and apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2014
Autophagy and apoptosis control the turnover of organelles and proteins within cells, and of cells within organisms, respectively, and many stress pathways sequentially elicit autophagy, and apoptosis within the same cell. Generally autophagy blocks the induction of apoptosis, and apoptosis-associated caspase activation shuts off the autophagic process.

Prosumers’ Behavior under a Regulation That Encourages Strict Self-Sufficiency. The Case of Spanish Photovoltaic Micro-Generation

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The reduction of equipment costs encourages the diffusion of photovoltaic micro-generation, however, proper regulatory measures should be implemented to facilitate self-production dissemination and to promote the emergence of new electricity markets ...

Applying Solar PV to Heat Pump and Storage Technologies in Australian Houses

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Innovative mechanical services coupled with renewable energy systems are crucial for achieving a net zero energy goal for houses. Conventional systems tend to be vastly oversized because they lack the means to buffer energy flows and are based on peak ...

Increasing photovoltaic self-consumption with game theory and blockchain [PDF]

open access: yesEAI Endorsed Transactions on Energy Web, 2021
INTRODUCTION: This paper presents a distributed approach to optimise self-consumption on a local energy community containing photovoltaic generators, electric vehicles, loads and a storage system. OBJECTIVES: The goal is to maximise energy sharing between users while preserving the indivual objectives of each user.

The role of guilt and pride in consumers’ self-regulation: an exploration on sustainability and ethical consumption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Researchers are interested in understanding the individual processes that favour consumers’ self-regulation since they can contribute to the achievement of personal and collective long-term goals in many areas.
