We examine empirically how different information types and information channels affect both the intention and the decision to adopt photovoltaic (PV) technology as affected by adoption stage. Analyzing data on a large European utility's current and potential clients reveals how the effects of...

Contingency theory suggests that the selection of coherent combinations of organizational capabilities and operational environments has important performance implications. This paper builds upon this perspective to analyse the emergence of a new business model that is modifying the structure of...

The paper aims to contribute to the longstanding technology-push vs. demand-pull debate and to the literature on renewable energy diffusion and renewable energy policy assessment. The authors argue that in addition to the traditional push-pull dichotomy, the drivers of technological change must...

Confronted by increasingly tight budgets and a broad range of alternative options, policy makers need empirical methods to evaluate the effectiveness of policies aimed at supporting the diffusion of renewable energy sources (RES). Rigorous empirical studies of renewable energy policy...

Producing green hydrogen from wind energy is one potential method to mitigate curtailment. This study develops a general approach to examine the economic benefit of adding hydrogen production capacity through water electrolysis along with the fuel cell and storage facilities in a wind farm in...

Solar Chimney Power Plant (SCPP) is a renewable energy system that indirectly converts solar energy to electricity. However, the efficiency of SCPP is not sufficient for practical applications. Integrating SCPPs with Photovoltaic-Thermal systems (PVT) could enhance their performance to levels...
