Decomposing public support for energy policy: What drives acceptance of and intentions to protest against renewable energy expansion in Germany? (2019, background): “Wolsink (2007a, 2007b) emphasizes fairness/justice concerns, particularly with respect to distributive and procedural justice.”
A Turbine is not only a Turbine: The Role of Social Context and Fairness Characteristics for the Local Acceptance of Wind Power (2017, background): “Solely pointing out the advantages of turbines such as a CO2-free generation of electricity are probably not sufficient (Wolsink 2007a, b).”
The predominance of economic development in the support for large-scale wind farms in the U.S. Great Plains (2012, background): “Studies seeking to explain or describe support and opposition regarding wind-power development should focus on the “complex, multidimensional nature of public perceptions of wind farms” [44] rather than simplistic “Not-In-My-Backyard” (NIMBY) or Please-In-My-Backyard (PIMBY) descriptions [18,28,31,5”
Public acceptance and preferences related to renewable energy and grid expansion policy: Empirical insights for Germany (2016, positive): “Similar results are reported by Van der Horst [4] for wind and biomass projects in the UK as well as Wolsink [22] for wind projects in The Netherlands.”
The influence of values on evaluations of energy alternatives (2015, background): “A number of consequences were chosen that often occur in public debates on renewable energy sources [11,12,37,42].”
Contested environmental policy infrastructure: socio-political acceptance of renewable energy, water, and waste facilities (2010, background): “IC building refers to the capacity to facilitate open policy and decision-making processes that provide access to relevant stakeholders and room for various types of knowledge resources (Healey 1998; Breukers and Wolsink, 2007).”
The co-evolution of policy mixes and socio-technical systems: Towards a conceptual framework of policy mix feedback in sustainability transitions (2019, background): “This could occur, for example, through highly visible effects such as wind farms altering landscapes and triggering local opposition (Wolsink, 2007).”
