Yesterday, Christian Klöckner, Alice Grønhøj, and I served on the assessment committee of Ditte Mogensen‘s PhD defense in the Department of Management at Aarhus University. Ditte’s thesis combines practice theory and behavioral science to examine how, when, and why homeowners choose to implement or abandon energy efficient retrofitting of their houses. The findings of her study provide new insights on the challenges of closing the energy efficiency gap in the existing housing stock. Congratulations to Ditte (and supervisors John Thøgersen, Kirsten Gram-Hanssen, and Per Telling) on a successful defense!
