Which tariff to choose? How individual attitudes and preferences explain demand for flexible electricity tariffs in Germany
Time-variant pricing and voluntary flexibility in private energy consumption have the potential to enhance demand sensitivity in electricity markets, playing crucial roles in the transition towards a greener energy system. This paper uses survey methods to examine the determinants of the stated willingness to adopt time-variant electricity tariffs. Based on a large population sample (N = 1200) from the most populous German federal state, North Rh…
Public Communication about Science in 68 Countries
This 68-country survey ( n = 71,922) examines science information diets and communication behavior, identifies cross-country differences, and tests how such differences are associated with sociopolitical and economic conditions. We find that social media are the most used sources of science information in most countries, except those with democratic-corporatist media systems where news media tend to be used more widely. People in collectivist soc…
The role of co-benefits in motivating climate change mitigation – Experimental evidence
Trust in scientists and their role in society across 68 countries
Science is crucial for evidence-based decision-making. Public trust in scientists can help decision makers act on the basis of the best available evidence, especially during crises. However, in recent years the epistemic authority of science has been challenged, causing concerns about low public trust in scientists. We interrogated these concerns with a preregistered 68-country survey of 71,922 respondents and found that in most countries, most p…
What motivates smart meter adoption? Evidence from an experimental advertising campaign in Germany
Motivating individuals to engage in transformative behaviors aimed to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change seizes to be a large challenge of environmental social science. In particular, in remains unclear how to best promote the uptake of novel, digital technologies when it comes to efficient energy management. To contribute to this challenge, the present Perspective investigates factors associated with energy customers’ interest in sma…
