Researchers have developed a novel framework that integrates large language models (LLMs) into agent-based models for analyzing energy adoption. This hybrid approach augments existing techno-economic models with LLM-driven behavioral insights and scenario specifications, enhancing interpretability and reproducibility. Applied to solar photovoltaic adoption by Irish dairy farms, the framework demonstrated stable and economically plausible outcomes across various policy settings and behavioral rubrics, showing up to a 13% increase in adoption without unrealistic saturation.
