Modeling Farmers’ Adoption Potential to New Bioenergy Crops: An Agent-Based Approach

Conference Ullah, Kazi ; Crooks, Andrew

The use of fossil fuels is the primary source of greenhouse gas emissions but there are alternatives to these especially in the form of biofuels, fuels derived from bioenergy crops. This paper aims to determine farmers’ potential adoption rates of newly introduced bioenergy crops with a specific example of carinata in the state of Georgia. The determination is done using an agent-based modeling technique with two principal assumptions—farmers are profit maximizer and they are influenced by neighboring farmers. Two diffusion parameters (traditional and expansion) are followed along with two willingness (high and low) scenarios to switch at varying production economicsmore »« less

Final Report: Towards an Emergent Model of Technology Adoption for Accelerating the Diffusion of Residential Solar PV

Technical Report Rai, Varun

This project sought to enable electric utilities in Texas to accelerate diffusion of residential solar photovoltaic (PV) by systematically identifying and targeting existing barriers to PV adoption. A core goal of the project was to develop an integrated research framework that combines survey research, econometric modeling, financial modeling, and implementation and evaluation of pilot projects to study the PV diffusion system. This project considered PV diffusion as an emergent system, with attention to the interactions between the constituent parts of the PV socio-technical system including: economics of individual decision-making; peer and social influences; behavioral responses; and information and transaction costs.more »« less

An Approximate Entropy Based Approach for Quantifying Stability in Spatio-Temporal Data with Limited Temporal Observations

Conference Piburn, Jesse ; Stewart, Robert ; Morton, April

Identifying erratic or unstable time-series is an area of interest to many fields. Recently, there have been successful developments towards this goal. These newly developed methodologies however come from domains where it is typical to have several thousand or more temporal observations. This creates a challenge when attempting to apply these methodologies to time-series with much fewer temporal observations such as for spatio-temporal socio-cultural understanding, a domain where a typical time series of interest might only consist of 20-30 annual observations. Identifying instability in spatio-temporal trends is critical for understanding global dynamics and finding areas of potential concern or intervention.more »« less
