Can citizen-financed photovoltaic projects support the energy transition? Experimental evidence from Swiss households
Photovoltaics (PV) is a widely accepted technology that has a vital role to play in the energy transition. However, residential and community-owned installations are not accessible to everyone. Citizen-financed PV projects (CiFi PV) offer opportunities for tenants, individuals with limited upfront investment capacity, and homeowners with unsuitable rooftops to invest in PV installations. To evaluate the attractiveness of CiFi PV and its influenci…

E-bike trials’ potential to promote sustained changes in car owners mobility habits
Modal shifts hold considerable potential to mitigate carbon emissions. Electric bikes (e-bikes) represent a promising energy- and carbon-efficient alternative to cars. However, as mobility behaviour is highly habitual, convincing people to switch from cars to e-bikes is challenging. One strategy to accomplish this is the disruption of existing habits—a key idea behind an annual e-bike promotion programme in Switzerland, in which car owners can tr…
From risk to vulnerability
Infrastructure projects such as repositories for nuclear waste or hazardous waste sites impose risks (in the form of potential burdens or losses) over extensive timescales. These risks change dynamically over time and so, potentially, does their management. Societies and key actors go through learning processes and subsequently may be better able to deal with related challenges. However, social scientific research on the acceptance of such projec…
Anticipating Gaps in Energy Research at Transdisciplinary and International Interfaces
A session chaired by SAGUF at the International Foresight Academic Seminar 2013 identified strengths and gaps in the energy research landscape in Switzerland. The discussion highlighted the need for inter- and transdisciplinary research and integration of the social sciences

The influence of linear and cyclical temporal representations on risk perception of nuclear waste
Time is an important aspect of the issue of nuclear waste, both from a technical and from a perceptional perspective. Previous studies have investigated the relationship between time and risk perception of nuclear waste, applying the discounting paradigm and therefore limiting time to one very narrow aspect: its duration. However, time is a multifaceted concept and encompasses more than a linear property. The aim of our study is to test the influ…

A new epistemic community in nuclear waste governance? Theoretical reflections and empirical observations on some fundamental challenges
Discourses around nuclear waste were, for decades, dominated by techn(ocrat)ic debates. The respective international group of experts can be understood as an epistemic community (Haas 1992), as this community impacts on the way an issue is perceived and discussed. Yet, nuclear waste is not only a technical, but also a so-called socio-technical problem, and hence the discourses have been broadened. Lately, risk communication has become ubiquitous …
Environmental Impacts of Conventional and Sustainable Investment Funds Compared Using Input‐Output Life‐Cycle Assessment
This study compares equity funds that are managed according to sustainability goals with conventionally managed funds with respect to their environmental impacts. Overlap in the portfolios of sustainable equity funds and conventional equity funds can be very large. Further, the sector allocation of both types of funds is generally very similar, because portfolio managers follow a chosen benchmark to minimize risk. These two effects may result in …
