Energy Poverty and Policy Responses in Australia

这个项目旨在了解影响澳大利亚能源贫困的因素。利用计量经济学方法，本项目将研究：1)生活冲击和天气冲击对能源贫困的影响，以及2)现有政府计划和政策对能源贫困的影响。该项目期望产生关于冲击和政策影响能源贫困的途径的新知识。成果包括产生知识和向主要利益攸关方传播调查结果。该项目将带来巨大的好处，包括更好地理解能源贫困，从而影响直接影响澳大利亚人和其他易受能源贫困影响的人的健康和福祉的政策。

This project aims to understand the factors influencing energy poverty in Australia. Using econometric methods, this project will examine: 1) the impact of life shocks and weather shocks on energy poverty, and 2) the impact of existing government programs and policies on energy poverty. This project expects to generate new knowledge on the pathways through which shocks and policies influence energy poverty. The outcomes include knowledge generation and dissemination of findings to key stakeholders. This project will provide significant benefits, including better understandings of energy poverty that can influence policy directly shaping the health and wellbeing of Australians and others vulnerable to energy poverty.
