Cooking up Change: A Recipe for Electrification

The transition from gas to electric stovetops represents a critical pathway for reducing household emissions. Drawing on recent research conducted in the ACT, PhD candidate at ANU Sarah Boddington explored the complex social and cultural factors that influence how households approach stovetop electrification decisions.

Key themes include:

  • The emerging role of solar panels in driving household electrification

  • Cultural considerations, particularly for some in Asian communities

  • Different renovation timelines across age groups

  • Barriers around technology familiarity and perceived hassle

  • Climate change motivations and their limits

  • Equity considerations in the transition
