Going solar? The role of knowledge in shaping social acceptance of citizen-financed PV projects in Switzerland
CiFi PV projects facilitate broader public participation in solar energy, particularly among those unable to install their own rooftop systems. Despite their potential, these projects are under-researched. This study explores whether CiFi PV can engage diverse populations or if it mainly attracts the same individuals as personal rooftop PV. It examines the role of tacit and explicit knowledge, as measured by education and solar experience, in the acceptance of CiFi PV, as well as in the evaluation of project characteristics that motivate people to choose CiFi PV. Using a Swiss conjoint experiment, findings suggest that the inclusive potential of CiFi PV may be limited, with similar preferences observed across knowledge groups.
期刊介绍:
Utilities Policy is deliberately international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral. Articles address utility trends and issues in both developed and developing economies. Authors and reviewers come from various disciplines, including economics, political science, sociology, law, finance, accounting, management, and engineering. Areas of focus include the utility and network industries providing essential electricity, natural gas, water and wastewater, solid waste, communications, broadband, postal, and public transportation services.
Utilities Policy invites submissions that apply various quantitative and qualitative methods. Contributions are welcome from both established and emerging scholars as well as accomplished practitioners. Interdisciplinary, comparative, and applied works are encouraged. Submissions to the journal should have a clear focus on governance, performance, and/or analysis of public utilities with an aim toward informing the policymaking process and providing recommendations as appropriate. Relevant topics and issues include but are not limited to industry structures and ownership, market design and dynamics, economic development, resource planning, system modeling, accounting and finance, infrastructure investment, supply and demand efficiency, strategic management and productivity, network operations and integration, supply chains, adaptation and flexibility, service-quality standards, benchmarking and metrics, benefit-cost analysis, behavior and incentives, pricing and demand response, economic and environmental regulation, regulatory performance and impact, restructuring and deregulation, and policy institutions.
