“…Though there is a widespread awareness of the problem among the population, and the energy transition as well as the achievement of corresponding climate targets via climate actions generally enjoy great acceptance in society in many countries, this is rather restrained when it comes to concrete regional SET integration and on-site grid expansion, and deviates from the approval or acceptance of measures to achieve abstractly formulated sustainability targets [13]. This discrepancy or ambiguity, which often has to do with a phenomenon labeled "not in my back yard" (NIMBY) [14,15], can complicate and delay SET deployment.…”

“…The environmental impact of SET integration is often viewed with suspicion by local residents, who often expect a lasting deterioration in their quality of life. Aesthetic aspects or negative economic effects in the form of a decrease in tourism or a decline in the value of real estate and land usually play a special role here [14,15,19,20], also leading to the introduction of new terms such as "scenic beauty value" and methods for their assessment [21]. However, SETs can also differ in terms of fundamental issues of sustainability-especially when it comes to life-cycle assessment-and can give rise to corresponding reservations [22].…”

“…In general, hesitant or dismissive attitudes in this context can be attributed to the "not in my back yard" (NIMBY) phenomenon [14,15,19]. This phenomenon can be observed for different regional implementation plans, whatever type of technology and infrastructure measure is at stake-from the integration of wind turbines to the development of hydrogen generation, distribution, and transport infrastructures [19].…”

In the context of the energy transition, sound decision making regarding the development of renewable energy systems faces various technical and societal challenges. In addition to climate-related uncertainties affecting technical issues of reliable grid planning, there are also subtle aspects and uncertainties related to the integration of energy technologies into built environments. Citizens’ opinions on grid development may be ambiguous or divergent in terms of broad acceptance of the energy transition in general, and they may have negative attitudes towards concrete planning in their local environment. First, this article identifies the issue of discrepancies between preferences of a fixed stakeholder group with respect to the question of the integration of renewable energy technology, posed from different perspectives and at different points in time, and considers it as a fundamental problem in the context of robust decision making in sustainable energy system planning. Second, for dealing with that issue, a novel dynamic decision support methodology is presented that includes multiple surveys, statistical analysis of the discrepancies that may arise, and multicriteria decision analysis that specifically incorporates the opinions of citizens. Citizens are considered as stakeholders and participants in smart decision-making processes. A case study applying agent-based simulations underlines the relevance of the methodology proposed for decision making in the context of renewable energies.

Does Proximity to a Power Plant Affect Housing Property Values of a City in South Korea? An Empirical Investigation

The South Korean government plans to switch from a centralized power generation method to a distributed one. However, due to opposition from local residents, construction of distributed power plants is frequently delayed or suspended. This study attempts to investigate whether proximity to a power plant negatively affects housing property values, using the hedonic pricing technique and quantitatively analyzing the level of impact. To this end, 2291 apartment sales data from a specific city in the South Korean Seoul Metropolitan area with a power plant were used. As a result of the analysis, it was found that proximity to a power plant had a negative effect on apartment prices, which was statistically significant at the significance level of 5%. The difference in apartment prices per 1 km direct distance from the power plant to the apartment was derived as KRW 8 million (USD 7.1 thousand). This value is about 0.7% of the average price of apartments in the area (KRW 1102 million = USD 0.98 thousand). The results of this study can be used as a useful reference when the government determines the size of subsidies for local residents near power plants.
