Public opinion on the clean energy transition during times of crisis
In 2022, Europe faced an unprecedented energy crisis that began as a consequence of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Given the pivotal role of consumers in the clean energy transition, it is becoming increasingly important to understand how consumer attitudes develop during times of crisis. This study investigated how consumer awareness of and attitude toward various energy technologies and energy-conscious behaviors have developed before, during, a…
Roles of Technological Knowledge and Self-Efficacy in Influencing Consumer Adoption of Smart Grid Technologies
With the help of various smart energy technologies, consumers are envisioned to become active participants in the energy systems of the future. However, the lack of knowledge and confidence among the public pose significant barriers to the widespread adoption of many smart grid technologies. This study investigates the relationships between technological knowledge, self-efficacy and consumer adoption of smart grid technologies. We conducted an on…

What happens after electrification? Exploring the evolution of appliance adoption in rural Kenya
Design and dimensioning of off-grid power systems require a deep understanding of how electricity demand develops over time. However, a notable knowledge gap exists regarding how electricity loads evolve, particularly in remote areas of developing countries. This paper presents a granular analysis of appliance uptake through a case study in rural Kenya, and aims to provide real-world evidence to enhance demand forecasting in similar contexts. The…
Measuring success
In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the challenge of widespread electricity access, especially in rural areas, persists, with approximately half the population lacking basic electricity services. To tackle this issue, decentralized energy resource (DER) technologies, including solar home systems and micro/mini-grids, have gained prominence, aiming to revolutionize the SSA energy landscape. This paper aims to introduce a framework for evaluating business…
