SR470 Marginal abatement cost curves for the built environment: Developing a methodology (2022)

Although marginal abatement cost curves (MACCs) have been used to illustrate the cost and carbon reduction potential of replacement technologies relevant to housing in New Zealand, there has been limited application of MACCs at the individual building level. This research explores the processes, inputs and methodology necessary to produce MACCs relevant to new builds at the individual dwelling and projected cumulative stock levels.
