Energy resilience is an important focus for energy policy and research, since the system increasingly facing challenges such as power shortages, e.g. due to increased renewable production, risks of outages caused by extreme weathers. Typically, in these contexts focuses on infrastructure securing supply electricity despite disturbances. This paper contributes a complementary perspective resilience, which takes households starting point investigating resilience. Building understandings from...

During the autumn, winter and early spring of 2022/2023, Europe faced rapidly increasing energy prices threats power cuts. The situation was consequently labelled an "energy crisis", one sector that severely affected households. In response to situation, European households made efforts reduce time-shift their use mitigate effects crisis. Considering domestic practices are often difficult change, particularly in long term, we find this effect crisis on important understand more deeply....

Fireplaces are popular in Northern Europe. However, particle emissions from fireplaces have been identified as an environmental problem and a health problem. User behaviors affect the success of reducing technologies to large extent. This interdisciplinary study aims investigate why how people use their fireplaces, including what emotions associate with fire, interest learning more about fire making changing behavior related making. It does so by applying emotion regulation model novel way....

This Research Full Paper explores different implementations of and teachers’ experiences from challenge-driven education similar learning approaches in engineering other higher contexts. Through an action research approach key concerns among the teachers similarities differences between studied courses can be identified. The study highlights potential these approaches, as means for breaking going beyond traditional boundaries education, enhancing cross-fertilizing with disciplines,...

Abstract Background In affluent countries, essential infrastructures like power systems are often taken for granted and thus invisible to ordinary people. However, because of energy transitions climate impacts, the system in countries such as Sweden is changing. For example, variable renewable sources increasing demand call a potential need be able deal with changing conditions including disruptions at an end-use level, which makes come foreground. As argued paper, deeper knowledge about...
