Acceptance of demand-side flexibility in the residential heating sector — Evidence from a stated choice experiment in Germany
(2024-05-22)
The growing share of renewables and the electrification of the transport and heating sectors are increasingly leading to an imbalance between electricity supply and demand in the distribution grids at the regional and local level. While the supply side is becoming increasingly flexible and volatile, the demand side is largely rigid and inflexible, especially at the household level. However, households have great potential to provide flexibility for grid stability by matching their electricity demand to supply. In ...

Personal communication as a strategy to improve the quality of household organic waste – Does it work? results from a quasi-experimental study in Northern Hesse, Germany
(2024-04-22)
Household organic waste has great potential for closing nutrient cycles in agriculture. This requires proper waste separation by households. Personal communication at the doorstep potentially improves household waste separation behaviour but it is expensive and findings from existing research are mixed. Based on results of previous studies and from a quasi-experiment with non-equivalent groups design in two German municipalities, this paper argues that efficiency of personal communication depends on its context. It ...
