Believe it or not, this magnified inset of a new #JAERE figure demonstrates "solar rebound" from net metering. Residential rooftop solar panels can -- in theory -- increase electricity use.

@ezrakleinbot.bsky.social and @dkthomp.bsky.social get this wrong in 𝐴𝑏𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒: “... in the late 1970s, home construction started to fall behind the pace of population growth.” Actually, the number of US dwellings grew faster than population in the 70s and 80s, and kept pace in the 90s.

With recent events, state climate policy matters more. Fullerton and Ta find that after states tighten their renewable portfolio standards (red line), CO2 emissions decline (left axis), but not statistically significantly, and not by more for states with more renewable potential.
