Two big levers of decarbonisation:
1. Shifting from fossil fuel power to clean power
2. Shifting from molecules to electrons
Many countries are now doing well on (1).
Slower on (2), but this is where a lot of potential lies.

A few years ago "transport poverty" was just a niche academic concept.
Now the EU has published its recommendations on how to tackle it & a helpful data dashboard transport.ec.europa.eu/news-events/...

When dynamic #electricity pricing (RTP) entered the Danish market this posed much confusion for households.
Maybe this has changed after the so-called energy crisis. Here are some insights from a new study 👇 @aau.dk @energyefficiency.bsky.social link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Uncovering energy flexibility of everyday rhythms and routines in households with real-time electricity pricing - Energy Efficiency
Energy demand flexibility is important for a sustainable transition of energy systems, and dynamic electricity pricing, like real-time pricing (RTP), is a popular instrument to incite households to ti...

People change how much they fly through their life course - but what factors explain these changes?
We just published the first study to look into this with panel data link.springer.com/article/10.1...

My first paper (with @Paula van den Brom as the main author) reaching 100 citations. Our analysis (very conveniently) indicate that ascribing 50% of the variation in heating demand to occupants could be a good rule of thump 😊

With few days to the Christmas holidays, I present two graphs that show how our energy consumption patterns and rhythms change during holidays (and weekends).
=> daily patterns lose its strong peaks
=> "peak" demand appears later
=> routines are less routinized

The world is set to move rapidly into the Age of Electricity ⚡️
In recent years, electricity rose 2x as fast as total energy demand
But from now to 2035, it's set to grow 6x as fast, driven by EVs, air conditioners, AI & more

Working with #sustainableconsumption, I'm often asked about a 'green Christmas'. My take is "Don't bother with the small stuff (recycle wrapping), but try to do less (fewer presents) and practice 'sharing'". Kind of sufficiency? What are your take? @luciemidd.bsky.social @thargreaves.bsky.social
