Affective, Symbolic, and Instrumental Motives Underlying Teenagers’ Mobility Behavior: A Retrospective Study
2023 - 2024
The research project “Affective, Symbolic, and Instrumental Motives Underlying Teenagers’ Mobility Behavior: A Retrospective Study” is funded by the Swiss federal railways (SFR) Research Fund. Teenagers' travel mode preferences are developed early on, and public transport is often viewed as less attractive than cars. This project will study the factors that influence teenagers' mobility behavior in Switzerland, with the goal of understanding how to influence them to choose public transport more often.

The peer effects of community live demonstration events on residential photovoltaic adoption.
2023 - 2024
The research project "Can solar parties make photovoltaic socially contagious? The peer effects of community live demonstration events on residential photovoltaic adoption" is funded by CLIMACT, an interdisciplinary center for climate impact and action from the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). This project explores the key role of residential Photovoltaic (PV) systems in the transition towards renewable energy. Since many homeowners struggle to adopt PV due to technical complexity, administrative burden, and inertia, this project studies the potential of solar parties, which are community-oriented events hosted by local volunteers that can help to overcome these barriers. Central goals of the project are a better understanding of the micro-level mechanisms underlying peer effects in PV diffusion and formulating best practices on organizing solar parties for governments.
