- Title
Community Acceptance of Renewable Energy Technology: A Behavioural Framework.
- Authors
Singh, Neera
- Abstract
Rapid industrialisation has no doubt fostered rapid development; yet it has brought in its wake environmental degradation leading to a world of deprivation and disparity. Of late, a shift is discernible towards healthy, clean and green form of energy. The success of these technologies, however, depends to a great extent on community acceptance. This paper proposes a theoretical construct of knowledge dissemination and identification with the environment as an antecedent to perceived risk and benefits by the community on accepting renewable energy technology. The model of the behavioural framework is conceptualised on propositions based on earlier research. Of course, the scope of the work is limited as it considers energy generation only through the renewable source, and the other aspects have not been included in this study.
