“Despite all the firefighting, we should now use energy wisely and put our energy supply on a healthy footing, and that means using domestic #renewables.” My thoughts on 🇩🇪 #energy policy in light of war in 🇺🇦. Via Handelsblatt open.spotify.com/episode/0YrAMp…

The 12th #REMforum on the topic of "Managing the Dynamics of Social Acceptance" will take place from 23-24 June. #RenewableEnergies Rolf Wüstenhagen HSG-ChairRenewableEM remforum.ch

From #socialacceptance to #electrifyingagriculture 😎 and from #REMforum to MISTRAL-ITN, it’s all connected.

The #REMforum 2022 was held under the motto "Managing the dynamics of social acceptance". The first round of discussion, chaired by SRF's Arthur Arthur Honegger , focused on how participation can increase community acceptance of #RenewableEnergy projects. unisg.link/abc154

MISTRAL-ITN supervisors Rolf Wüstenhagen and Geraint Ellis on a productive meeting finalising details of a forthcoming Special Issue of Energy Policy, en route through the Alps.

Timely discussion about the intersection between energy and industrial policy last Friday in Berlin. What does it take for the solar industry to be “coming home”, creating #greenjobs, supporting #climateaction and increasing #energysecurity?

"While #V2G is not a magic bullet, electric cars can play a role in storing electricity close to where it is needed." My take on @Mobility_Suisse's vehicle-to-grid pilot project in today's #Tagesschau SRF News. #EV #powerbank #climatesolutions mobility.ch/en/v2x

👏👏🥳 Congratulations to MISTRAL-ITN ESR @ElizabethCote_, who successfully defended her thesis today! Thanks to the examiners! Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions HSG Institute for Economy and the Environment Rolf Wüstenhagen Geraldine Ryan

61.2% of voters in 🇨🇭 canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden approve progressive #energy law, including 40% #renewables target by 2035. While the law was supported by a broad majority in parliament, an oil firm from outside the canton had launched a referendum. srf.ch/news/abstimmun…

Finally! Living near Lake Constance for 25 years, I was increasingly stunned how ferries on a lake that provides drinking water to 4 million people could still run on fossil fuels. Now, the age of electric mobility has arrived. #climateaction #EV br.de/nachrichten/ba…

Looking forward to working with Universität St.Gallen (HSG) #MBA students tomorrow. High time to connecting the dots in the current #energy and #climate crisis.

Out now: our new article with Jakob Knauf on "Crowdsourcing #socialacceptance: Why, when and how project developers offer citizens to co-invest in #windpower", published in #EnergyPolicy. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S03…

Insightful examples of research on social acceptance of #renewableenergy presented at MISTRAL-ITN project during our final meeting in Brussels today. An honour to have been involved in this 4-year endeavour pushing the research frontier and educating 15 early-stage researchers.

Happy faces yesterday at Universität St.Gallen (HSG) as Nina Schneider @ElizabethCote_ and Jakob Knauf were awarded their well-deserved #PhD degrees. Congratulations!! It was a real pleasure collaborating with you in the MISTRAL-ITN EU project over the last 3-4 years. #proud

Is perceived lack of masculinity a barrier to adoption of electric cars? Our latest research paper with Jana Plaňanská and Emanuel de Bellis (Universität St.Gallen (HSG)), just published in Travel Behaviour and Society, explores the cultural drivers of #EV diffusion. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S22…

„Climate crisis and devastating wars have a common cause: dependence on fossil fuels. Supercharging the energy transition is the only answer“, says Ukrainian deputy energy minister Yaroslav Demchenkov kicking off #REMforum 2023.

Hot off the press: @Ute_Collier presents the findings of IRENA‘s World Energy Transition Outlook at #REMforum, published yesterday. Investment in #renewables is growing, but still outpaced by investment in #fossilfuels, undermining the 1.5 degree target.
