“…As a result, energy will not be imported, and the current account deficit problem will be minimized [34,35]. According to many studies in the literature, the economic benefits should be highlighted to improve the perception of nuclear energy among the public [36][37][38]. Gupta et al [39] focused on this subject for United States (US).…”

“…After that, normalization procedure is implemented by the equations (35)- (36). Total relation matrix is generated with the equation (37) in the fifth step. Later, the impact and relation directions as well as the weights of criteria are identified for both Spherical and Pythagorean fuzzy sets by the equations (38)- (39).…”

“…Se ha encontrado que estas reticencias están eminentemente provocadas por el riesgo percibido de accidente nuclear. Este riesgo percibido suele estar sobrevalorado respecto a la situación de riesgo objetivo, lo que genera una utilidad negativa para los consumidores de energía y un coste social que puede afectar a las condiciones económicas de las plantas nucleares en el futuro (Huhtala & Remes, 2017). Estas reticencias están significativamente correlacionadas con factores demográficos y geográficos (Balta-Ozkan & Le Gallo, 2018).…”

La energía nuclear es considerada una fuente energética útil y problemática al mismo tiempo. Su utilización ofrece ventajas e inconvenientes que deben ser analizados para comprender el dilema económico, político y social al que se enfrenta una sociedad cuando toma la decisión de configurar su perfil energético. El análisis se plantea desde una perspectiva hispano-sueca, en tanto que España y Suecia son dos ejemplos de las respuestas que una sociedad puede dar ante el mencionado dilema nuclear.

“…On the other hand, the prominent factor driving the negative perception of nuclear energy is the perceived risks (de Groot, Steg, & Poortinga, 2013;Gawande & Jenkins-Smith, 2001;Huhtala & Remes, 2017;Rothman & Lichter, 1987;Sjöberg & Drottz-Sjöberg, 2001).…”

Public acceptance constitutes an important factor in successfully establishing and operating nuclear power plants. This paper explores public attitudes to the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project commissioned in 2013 and situated in Southern India, through assessing the role of socio‐demographic factors, externalities, and social trust in determining the level of public acceptance. An exploratory survey (n = 100) was carried out in two administrative units in the vicinity of the plant. The study reveals that acceptance of the plant is positively correlated with positive externalities and trust in governmental entities, whereas negative externalities and trust in antinuclear nongovernmental organizations and media are associated with negative public perception. The results show that governmental policies on nuclear power must support the effects of positive externalities and reduce the effects of negative externalities.
