Description
SCCER CREST is one of eight Swiss Centers of Competence in Energy Research that have been established by the Commission of Technology and Innovation (CTI) in 2014. The aim of SCCER CREST is to contribute to the energy transition in Switzerland by providing detailed, evidence-based recommendations on policies that help to reduce energy demand, foster innovation, and increase the share of renewables in a cost-efficient way. Within the different SCCERs, CREST covers the action area "economy, environment, law, and behavior" with three lines of research that develop innovative concepts for energy policy, provide an in-depth analysis of drivers and barriers to energy efficiency, produce detailed strategies that help firms and regions in adjusting to the new energy system, and develop novel assessment tools for policies and technological solutions.
SCCER CREST comprises research groups from the Universities of Basel, Geneva, Lucerne, Neuchâtel, and St. Gallen, as well as Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology (ETH) Zurich and Lausanne, and University of Applied Sciences Winterthur (ZHAW).
The Center for Energy Innovation, Governance and Investment (EGI-HSG) represents the St.Gallen research center of SCCER CREST, consisting of 5 research insitutes: Prof. Wüstenhagen (IWÖ-HSG), Prof. Davis (IPW-HSG), Prof. Frauendorfer (ior/sf-HSG), Prof. Gassmann (ITEM-HSG), and Prof. Hettich (IFF-HSG)

Item type:Publication, Can implicit cognition predict the behaviour of professional energy investors?This article reports on the results of two studies involving seventy-seven professional investment managers in Switzerland. We designed an Implicit Association Test (IAT) to investigate whether unconscious attitudes towards renewable versus non-renewable energy sources influence investment behavior. In Study 1, we find that there is indeed a correlation between implicit associations and our dependent variable, net investment in solar energy. In Study 2, we replicate the results from Study 1 and also show that implicit associations are more strongly correlated to investment behavior than explicit associations, suggesting that application of the IAT may add value to the analysis of energy investor behavior. As an example of investigating factors influencing decision-making "in the wild", our study is subject to a number of limitations that can be used as starting points for further research in this area of high societal relevance.Type:working paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
