Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Benjamin K. Sovacool is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Discrete choice
  • Econometrics

Electric vehicle is closely attributed to Power (physics) in his research. His Quantum mechanics research extends to the thematically linked field of Power (physics). Quantum mechanics is frequently linked to Electric vehicle in his study. He regularly links together related areas like Geodesy in his Grid studies. Benjamin K. Sovacool frequently studies issues relating to Grid and Geodesy. Benjamin K. Sovacool conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Econometrics and Discrete choice through his research. He integrates several fields in his works, including Discrete choice and Econometrics. In his study, he carries out multidisciplinary Neuroscience and Perception research. Perception and Neuroscience are two areas of study in which Benjamin K. Sovacool engages in interdisciplinary research.

His most cited work include:

  • The demographics of decarbonizing transport: The influence of gender, education, occupation, age, and household size on electric mobility preferences in the Nordic region (131 citations)
  • Policy mechanisms to accelerate electric vehicle adoption: A qualitative review from the Nordic region (119 citations)
  • Assessing the socio-demographic, technical, economic and behavioral factors of Nordic electric vehicle adoption and the influence of vehicle-to-grid preferences (95 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date

His study looks at the relationship between Geodesy and topics such as Grid, which overlap with Geometry. His study brings together the fields of Grid and Geometry. He studied Business model and Marketing that intersect with Focus group. Focus group and Marketing are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary work. In general Survey data collection, his work in Statistics is often linked to Economic geography and Law linking many areas of study. His work in Statistics is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Survey data collection. His work on Ecology as part of general Sustainability study is frequently linked to Epistemology and Law, bridging the gap between disciplines. He incorporates Ecology and Sustainability in his studies. His work on Quantum mechanics is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Electric vehicle.

Benjamin K. Sovacool most often published in these fields:

  • Quantum mechanics (68.75%)
  • Electric vehicle (68.75%)
  • Power (physics) (68.75%)
