First insights from RENAISSANCE survey

After one month since its launch, some first insights about our survey can be revealed. The aim of the RENAISSANCE survey on renewable energy and community-based solutions is to identify the factors that influence the acceptance of local renewable energy production technologies.

The survey is divided into four sections addressing: i) the general awareness of the environmental issues and the regulatory context, ii) the perceived risks and benefits, iii) the factors influencing the decision making, and iv) the level of acceptance of emerging business models and technologies. The RENAISSANCE survey has been distributed in five different languages throughout Europe with a total of 97 responses collected to date. The most represented countries are Italy (30%) and Spain (30%), followed by a sparse number of respondents from eight other European countries and the UK. From this initial dataset only preliminary insights can be derived. A more comprehensive analysis of the results will be included in a final report that will be published on the official RENAISSANCE project website by August 2020. Interested in some statistics?
