This paper experimentally investigates the existence of behavioural deviations from the oft-assumed rationality in private transport decisions, avoiding the selection-biases in revealed data. Through a choice experiment answered by 995 Swiss respondents, we explore the linkages between long- and...

Various energy investments are possible in residential buildings. Owners' opportunities are moreover extending with smart technologies and optimisation options, as well as with the rise of collective investment projects. In this context, we investigate owners' investment decisions by conducting...

The split incentive problem leads to under-investment in energy improvements of rental buildings. This prevents the large CO2 savings potential from being achieved and leads to disadvantages for tenants. New investment opportunities and a willingness of tenants to pay for investments made by the...

We provide novel evidence for the size of key electric vehicle (EV) adoption barriers, purchase price and battery range, and the driver, operating cost, in the broadening EV market. We further demonstrate the heterogeneity of these across consumer segments, plus determine groups most resistant...

Through a choice experiment conducted among 995 Swiss respondents, we study the linkages between prior investment decisions and the choice of travel mode. Our experiment design and empirical framework aims to identify the impact of electric vehicles (EVs) and to test for two behavioural...

Using a choice experiment conducted among more than a thousand Swiss consumers, we analyze the individual demand for voluntary carbon offsets in different contexts. The analysis is used to identify the consumers’ underlying motives for offsetting emissions, the context effects on their...
