摘要

为了克服融资障碍,确保能源转型继续取得进展,需要有替代的融资概念。一种有前景的替代方案可能是公民金融参与,即私人通过各种商业模式和融资概念进行投资,为可再生能源(RES)的部署做出贡献。本文旨在为动员公民投资的政策和战略设计提供信息,从而促进能源转型。具体目标是调查公民的投资意愿(WTI),并比较影响风能、太阳能、地热能、水能和生物质能这五种可再生能源的投资意愿的因素。为了实现这些目标,我们的研究在希腊收集了 1,536 个具有代表性的公民样本,由于融资障碍和社会对可再生能源项目的反对,希腊这个欧盟成员国正处于能源转型的关键时刻。我们的研究结果表明,大多数公民都愿意投资,但主要投资金额较低,这说明有必要建立适合公民的投资机制。此外,影响投资意愿的因素在每种可再生能源类型中都有显著差异,这突出表明有必要在营销战略中利用这种差异。对几乎所有可再生能源类型而言,感知障碍和经济动机都很重要,但环境态度的影响较小,这表明以环境效益为论点的战略可能无效。本研究的结果提供了影响五种可再生能源类型的 WTI 的因素的精确概念,可为旨在动员公民投资可再生能源的政策和战略的设计提供更高的精确度。

Exploring the nuances in citizen willingness-to-invest in renewable energy

Exploring the nuances in citizen willingness-to-invest in renewable energy

To overcome financing barriers and to ensure that the progress towards energy transition will continue, alternative financing concepts are required. A promising alternative may be financial citizen participation, where private individuals will contribute to the deployment of renewable energy sources (RES) by investing via various business models and financing concepts. This paper aims to promote energy transition by informing the design of policies and strategies for mobilizing citizen investment. Specific objectives are to investigate citizens’ willingness-to-invest (WTI) and to compare the factors influencing WTI in five renewable types, wind, solar, geothermal, hydroelectric energy and biomass. To meet these objectives, our study collected a representative sample of 1,536 citizens in Greece, an EU member state that stands at a critical point in energy transition due to financing barriers and social opposition to renewable projects. Our results showed that most citizens were willing to invest, but would invest mainly low sums pointing at the need to establish investment mechanisms suitable for citizens. Moreover, the factors influencing willingness-to-invest differ significantly for each renewable type highlighting the need to leverage this differentiation in marketing strategies. While perceived barriers and economic motives were important for almost all renewable types, environmental attitudes were less influential suggesting that strategies using the argument of environmental benefits may be ineffective. Findings from this study provide a precise idea on the factors affecting WTI in five renewable types and can offer significantly higher precision for the design of policies and strategies aiming at mobilizing citizen investment in renewables.
