As the U.S. embarks on a historic transition to clean, renewable-based energy, utilities must grapple with new systems to control demand for electricity. One method is using time-of-use (TOU) rates, which increase the price of electricity during high demand periods, and decrease the price during periods of high renewable availability. These rates can be useful in encouraging homeowners to shift energy consumption like water heating, dishwashing, and air conditioning to midday, when solar energy is available. However, there is concern that low-income families, who are less likely to have flexible work schedules or new appliances with load shifting capabilities, may face higher costs due to these programs. In this thesis, I examine energy burden across America, to see if counties where TOU rates have been implemented have higher average energy burden for low-income households. Controlling for energy efficiency characteristics and ratepayer characteristics, I find that the average energy burden is lower for low-income households in counties that offer TOU rates. This result indicates that those TOU programs that were active in the period of observation did not impose a significant burden on those most vulnerable to high energy costs.
