Abstract Accelerating energy transitions that are both sustainable and just remains an important challenge, social innovation can have a key role in this transition. Here, we examine the diversity potential of systems transformation, synthesizing original mixed methods data from expert interviews, document analysis, experiments, representative survey, survey. Based on thematic analysis these data, advance four findings: (1) is best understood when recognizing core practices (thinking, doing,...
Digital tools, specifically smartphone apps, have emerged as enablers of social innovation for low-carbon transitions by using novel feedback to creatively engage people act more sustainably, and thus capture the power collective individual action. Such apps increasingly been implemented in real-world experiments with positive results short-term. However critical reflection is required look beyond this hype understand conditions longer term impact, reaching a transformative potential. In...
Abstract. Impairment of water quality by organic micropollutants such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals or household chemicals is a problem in many catchments worldwide. These originate from different urban and agricultural usages are transferred to surface waters point diffuse sources number transport pathways. The quantification this form pollution streams challenging especially demanding for due the high spatio-temporal concentration dynamics, which require large sampling analytical efforts...
While reducing individual energy consumption contributes to climate change mitigation, many individuals who share this belief fail act on it. behavioural interventions try address such intention-behaviour gaps, few approaches have worked with consumers understand the realities of their opportunities and limitations save at home. We argue that co-design is well-suited unique challenges climate-relevant behaviour propose an abductive methodology develop a intervention household members based...

Abstract Model-based energy scenarios promise to provide reliable, science-based decision support to
societal actors. However, these do not always sufficiently address the information needs of
a scenario user. This study aims better understand this gap with a focus on unique set of
peripheral users—such as local authorities and regional companies—who are often
overlooked in development processes yet play crucial role shaping future energy
