@HSGStGallen @solarifyer Hier kann man mitmachen: solarify.ch/HSG

Auf dem Dach des HSG-#Gym wird dieses Jahr eine Solaranlage gebaut - dank der Initiative von Studierenden und @wuestenhagen. Die Anlage wird durch ein Crowdinvestment finanziert. Ein Teil der Panels steht noch zum Verkauf @solarifyer unisg.link/r48

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.

„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 @DemchenkovY kicking off #REMforum 2023.

Insightful #factcheck by science journalist Bruno Knellwolf, reviewing claims ahead of the June 18 🇨🇭 climate policy referendum. Read why heating manufacturers should avoid a #Kodak moment and why climate change mitigation makes good economic sense. Source: CHmedia/27.5.2023

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

Happy faces yesterday at @HSGStGallen as @NinaMarxgut @ElizabethCote_ and @JakobKnauf were awarded their well-deserved #PhD degrees. Congratulations!! It was a real pleasure collaborating with you in the @ItnMistral EU project over the last 3-4 years. #proud

Insightful examples of research on social acceptance of #renewableenergy presented at @ItnMistral 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.

@ItnMistral Where’s the triangle? 🤓

@wuestenhagen is next giving an update on the latest research in social acceptance dynamics and a special issue arising from our work

Out now: our new article with @JakobKnauf 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…

Looking forward to working with @HSGStGallen #MBA students tomorrow. High time to connecting the dots in the current #energy and #climate crisis.

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…

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…

👏👏🥳 Congratulations to @ItnMistral ESR @ElizabethCote_, who successfully defended her thesis today! Thanks to the examiners! @MSCActions @IWOeHSG @wuestenhagen @g_gryan

"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 @srfnews. #EV #powerbank #climatesolutions mobility.ch/en/v2x

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?

@ItnMistral supervisors @wuestenhagen and @gellis23 on a productive meeting finalising details of a forthcoming Special Issue of Energy Policy, en route through the Alps.

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

@gellis23 @MaattaSenni @ItnMistral @MSCActions @ElizabethCote_ Attending a conference on managing the dynamics of social acceptance last week definitely made a difference. #keepitlocal&

Gais is a great place to become inspired. Enjoying @ItnMistral writing retreat. Danke @MSCActions @wuestenhagen @gellis23 @ElizabethCote_
