Bakhuis, J.J. (author), Kamp, L.M. (author), Barbour, Natalia (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author)This paper systematically reviews the literature on sociotechnical multi-system innovation frameworks that broaden the usual focus on one sociotechnical system to encompass influences from multiple systems. The review includes 75 peer-reviewed papers that span a broad range of energy-demanding systems and mainly build upon the core frameworks...journal article 2024

(author), Wimmler, Marie Christin (author), Grimm, Volker (author)Despite the increasing use of standards for documenting and testing agent-based models (ABMs) and sharing of open access code, most ABMs are still developed from scratch. This is not only inefficient, but also leads to ad hoc and often inconsistent implementations of the same theories in computational code and delays progress in the...journal article 2024

Biely, Katharina (author), Sareen, Siddharth (author), de Vries, G. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Bauwens, Thomas (author), Montagnino, Fabio Maria (author)CO<sub>2</sub> emissions need to be reduced drastically to fight climate change and minimise the further increase of average global temperatures. The decarbonisation of the energy system aims at reducing CO<sub>2</sub> emissions and is thus urgently needed. This transition is facilitated by inter alia switching to renewable energy sources and...contribution to periodical 2024

Pelka, S. (author), Bosch, A. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Liesenhoff, F. (author), Kühnbach, M. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)Electric vehicle (EV) users who aim to become flexibility providers face a tradeoff between staying in control of charging and minimizing their electricity costs. The common practice is to charge immediately after plugging in and use more electricity than necessary. Changing this can increase the EV’s flexibility potential and reduce...journal article 2024

Pelka, S. (author), Kesselring, Anne (author), Preuß, Sabine (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)Aligning prosumers' electricity consumption to the availability of self-generated electricity decreases CO<sub>2</sub> emissions and costs. Nudges are proposed as one behavioral intervention to orchestrate such changes. At the same time, fragmented findings in the literature make it challenging to identify suitable behavioral interventions...journal article 2024

Scholz, G. (author), Wijermans, Nanda (author), Paolillo, Rocco (author), Neumann, Martin (author), Masson, Torsten (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Templeton, Anne (author), Kocheril, Geo (author)Simulating collective decision-making and behaviour is at the heart of many agent-based models (ABMs). However, the representation of social context and its influence on an agent’s behaviour remains challenging. Here, the Social Identity Approach (SIA) from social psychology, offers a promising explanation, as it describes how people behave...journal article 2023

Hoogerbrugge, Coen (author), van de Kaa, G. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author)This paper studies factors for the adoption of quality standards. The identified factors are applied to a typical example of such a standard; a new standardized measurement and calculation methodology for corporate greenhouse gas inventories. Standardization of these methodologies fosters innovation, as it will provide innovators and regulators...journal article 2023

van der Koogh, M.L. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Heller, Renee (author), Lukszo, Z. (author)Charging infrastructure in neighborhoods is essential for inhabitants who use electric vehicles. The development of public charging infrastructure can be complex because of its dependency on local grid conditions, the responsibility to prepare for anticipated fleet growth policies, and the implicit biases that may occur with the allocation of...journal article 2023

(author)Agent-based modelling and simulation (ABMS), whether simple toy models or complex data-driven ones, is regularly applied in various domains to study the system-level patterns arising from individual behaviour and interactions. However, ABMS still faces diverse challenges such as modelling more representative agents or improving computational...journal article 2023

Gareth (author), Semeniuk, Christina (author), Stöppler, Frithjof (author)Agent-based models are particularly suitable to reflect the dynamics of humans, nature, and their interactions, making them a crucial approach for understanding social-ecological systems. The formalisations of human decision-making are central to resulting model behaviours. Despite awareness of the complexity of human behaviour in social...journal article 2023

(author), Karaliopoulos, Merkouris (author), Anagnostopoulos, Filippos (author), Preuß, Sabine (author)Prosumers with photovoltaic systems can reduce their electricity expenses by increasing their consumption of self-generated electricity. This makes them more resilient to price shocks, like the 2022 European energy crisis. We evaluate how prosumers adapt their consumption behavior in response to such political uncertainty and increasing...conference paper 2023

This development also raises new potential issues such as increased electricity demand, a lack of social acceptance, and...journal article 2023

Melliger, Marc (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author)Support schemes have been central to the expansion of renewable electricity globally and in the European Union. As technologies mature, individual member states may decide to phase out these policies. While previous research has shown that such policy changes affect investors’ decisions, we investigate how they affect pathways and electricity...journal article 2022

Biely, K. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), de Vries, G. (author), Sareen, Siddharth (author), Bauwens, Thomas (author)Technological innovations are a key part of the energy transition. However, the social sphere as a force to facilitate the energy transition must not be neglected. While the socio-technical transition theory provides a framework to connect the technological with the social sphere, the role of the individuals within the transition process remains...journal article 2022
