We are glad to inform you that our article entitled “An agent-based model to simulate technology adoption quantifying behavioural uncertainty of consumers” has been published in the Applied Energy journal. A good estimation of consumers’ expected response to specific policy measures is of paramount importance in the design of effective schemes for the adoption of new technologies. The decision-making process of consumers is influenced by a multitude of factors. In this context, agent-based modeling techniques provide an appropriate framework to model such private adoption decisions. However, the models currently in use often fail to capture uncertainties related to agency and…

We are glad to inform you that our article entitled “Barriers to and consequences of a solar-based energy transition in Greece” has been published in the Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions journal. In Greece, the renewable energy potential and a low-quality building stock constitute the background of a possible low-carbon energy transition. This transition, however, faces significant uncertainties, ranging from long-term effects of the ongoing economic recession and technological lock-ins, to the stability of the regulatory framework and issues of public acceptance. Such uncertainties may eventually give rise to significant barriers to, as well as severe economic and social consequences…
