Dataset Information

Watt matters most - Survey data results of private passenger vehicle owners and commercial vehicle drivers.

ABSTRACT: This data set contains the questionnaires and respective responses from two joint surveys dealing with the actual and anticipated charging behaviors of battery electric vehicle (BEV) drivers and professional truck drivers. During a period of 2 months in early 2023, a total of 348 responses were collected using an online survey built on the LimeSurvey framework. Participants were recruited using a database of professional truck drivers available to the authors and an open recruitment process based on QR codes attached to charging stations in the Munich area. In the fast-paced electromobility market, this data set constitutes one of the few sources of insights into the charging behaviors of current and future users of electrified vehicles. It may be used to calibrate behavioral models or derive design decisions for future charging infrastructures.

Project description:Private well stewardship, including on-going testing and treatment, can ensure private well users are able to maintain source-water quality and prevent exposures to potentially harmful constituents in primary drinking water supplies. Unlike municipal water supplies, private well users are largely responsible for their own testing and treatment and well stewardship is often minimal. The importance of factors influencing regular testing, and treatment behaviors, including knowledge, risk perception, convenience and social norms, can vary by geography and population characteristics. The primary goals of this study were to survey a general statewide population of private well users in Wisconsin in order to quantify testing and treatment patterns and gather data on motivations and barriers to well stewardship. The majority of respondents reported using and drinking well water daily but only about one half of respondents reported testing their wells in the last ten years and of these, only 10% reported testing in the last 12months. Bacteria and nitrates were contaminants most often tested; and, a private laboratory most often conducted testing. The most commonly reported water treatment was a water softener. Living in a particular geographic region and income were the most significant predictors of water testing and treatment. Iron and hardness, which influence water aesthetics but not always safety, were the most commonly reported water quality problems. Health concerns or perceived lack thereof were, respectively, motivators and barriers to testing and treatment. Limited knowledge of testing and treatment options were also identified as barriers. Results confirm previous findings that well stewardship practices are minimal and often context specific. Understanding the target population's perceptions of risk and knowledge are important elements to consider in identifying vulnerable populations and developing education and policy efforts to improve well stewardship.
