Comparing nuclear power trajectories in Germany and the UK: from ‘regimes' to ‘democracies’ in sociotechnical transitions and Discontinuities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper focuses on arguably the single most striking contrast in contemporary major energy politics in Europe (and even the developed world as a whole): the starkly differing civil nuclear policies of Germany and the UK. Germany is seeking entirely to

Social Welfare Preferences and Sustainable Development Goals. A Multivariate Analysis Approach

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S1, Page 65-90, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the interrelationship between individual social welfare preferences (SWPs) and sustainable development goals (SDGs). Social welfare preferences are measured through the World Values Survey. To illustrate the proposed approach, we focus on SDG 6, which aims to ensure clean water and sanitation for all. More specifically, SDG

Minimizing aviation lighting duration reduces bat attraction to wind turbines

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study provides empirical evidence that attraction behaviour of bats towards wind turbines is driven, at least partially, by red aviation lighting. We also demonstrate that smart lighting of wind turbines, such as the ADLS, could cost‐effectively help mitigate disruption of bat habitat use and the associated collision risks.

Vermeidung von Verbrennung senkt Primärenergiebedarf deutlich: Strom statt Wärme

open access: yesPhysik in unserer Zeit, Volume 56, Issue 6, Page 287-295, November 2025.
In der Energiewende geht es auch um den Umstieg auf strombasierte Technologien wie Wärmepumpen und Elektromobilität. Sie vermeiden Wärme als Zwischenschritt und sind dadurch wesentlich effizienter. Dies kann den Bedarf an Primärenergie in Zukunft deutlich senken, der dann vollständig durch den Ausbau von erneuerbaren Energien gedeckt werden kann. Warum

Optimal Power Flow: An Introduction to Predictive, Distributed and Stochastic Control Challenges

open access: yes, 2018
The Energiewende is a paradigm change that can be witnessed at latest since the political decision to step out of nuclear energy. Moreover, despite common roots in Electrical Engineering, the control community and the power systems community face a lack ...

Consolidating Sustainable Development in OECD Countries: The Role of Green Energy Transition, Green Innovation, Environmental Policy Stringency, and Human Capital

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 33, Issue S1, Page 823-835, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Sustainable development is a broad concept encompassing economic, social, and environmental factors. Thus, traditional development and environmental indicators offer an insufficient perspective since they fail to integrate education, health, income, and environmental issues cohesively.
