“…When the farmer raised their expenditure to cost of input 1000 IDR will increase three percent of WTP mitigation. Gravitiani, Suryanto, & Antriyandari, (2016) explained that higher input costs will affect WTP mitigation because the farmer has a higher risk.…”

This research aims to understand the effect of risk aversion on the farmers’ willingness to pay (WTP) to mitigate on climate change and identify the relationship between climate change and agriculture sectors’ growth at Bengawan Solo Sub-Watershed in Upper Area. We use primary data obtained through interviews with 104 respondents, who are farmers from Sribit Village in Sragen Regency. The sampling techniques are purposive non-probability sampling. The data analysis using contingent valuation methods (CVM) and Multiple Linear Log Regression. Meanwhile, the secondary data obtained from The Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), World Bank, and Germanwatch is collected to identify the effect of climate change on the agricultural sector. This research result shows that risk aversion does not affect farmers’ WTP to do adaptation. The variable of land area, education, and input cost affect significantly (5%), while working experience also affect to WTP at 10% significance level. The implication of low-risk aversion implies farmers not aware of climate change. Risk reduction efforts will not be a priority for farmers because the advantages to adaptation is not worthy. The relationship between production levels and negative climate change scores confirms that climate change can reduce farmer production.

“…In addition, research by Hidayati and Suryanto (2015) concluded that the respondent's last education level has a significant positive effect on climate change. People were indeed willing to pay for climate change mitigation in Central Java (Gravitiani et al, 2016). In another context, education also affects the willingness of cocoa farmers to insure their farms (Okoffo, 2016).…”

Landslide hazard could have severe impacts on public properties including damaged infrastructure, changing land structure, relocation of buildings and roadways, reduction on water quality in streams and irrigation facilities, etc., Household mitigation for landslide hazard is necessary to reduce such hazard intensity and minimize the impacts. This paper has analyzed household's willingness to pay (WTP) for landslide hazard mitigation in a high potential risk for landslide hazard regency in Purworejo, Central Java Indonesia. Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) was employed to capture the household's WTP. Determinants of the household WTP were estimated using the Logistic regression model. 270 households were chosen using a purposive sampling technique as the respondents of this study. Results showed that 76.7 percent of respondents were willing to pay for an average of IDR 4,500 (USD 0.32) for landslide mitigation. Household income, distance to landslide location, frequency of landslide, and educational attainment have significant effects on the WTP. The paper recommends that the local government should pay more attention to the landslide hazard mitigation programs.

“…Very few studies on WTP for renewable energy have targeted the less developed economies in Asia; five studies on China [13][14][15][16][17], eight on India [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25], three on Indonesia [26][27][28], three on Malaysia [29][30][31], and one each on Kazakhstan [32], Laos [33], Pakistan [34], the Philippines [35], Thailand [36], and Myanmar [37]. Their detailed research topics vary widely and include the research and development of solar energy [37], green electricity [14,16,[30][31][32], improved electricity services [19,21,27], rural electrification [22,23], rural electrification with mini-grids [20,28,34,38], off-grid solar [13], electricity [18], eco-tourism [33,35], electric motorcycles [17], solar home systems in grid-connected areas…”

Willingness to Pay for Renewable Energy in Myanmar: Energy Source Preference

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The increased use of renewable energy is imperative as a countermeasure to climate change. As with conventional electricity generation technologies, public acceptance of renewables is an important issue, and willingness to pay (WTP) is a widely used indicator to assess such public attitudes. Unfortunately, the literature to date mostly covers developed countries, with few WTP surveys in developing countries. Tackling climate change is an urgent issue for these developing countries; therefore, understanding of public attitudes toward renewables in developing countries is crucial. This study conducted the first survey on WTP for introducing renewable energy in Myanmar. Although Myanmar boasts abundant renewable energy resources, including solar power and biomass in addition to large-scale hydro plants, its resources are not being properly utilized to generate electricity. This study surveyed WTP for power generation by solar photovoltaics, small hydropower, and biomass facilities. The results showed the highest WTP for solar power (USD 1.92) with 10% share in the energy mix, and lower WTP for biomass and small hydropower electricity generations (USD 1.13 and USD 1.17, respectively). Careful public communication is thus crucial for expanding biomass and small-scale hydro power plants.
