Does the presence of wind turbines have negative externalities for people in their surroundings? Evidence from well-being data (2017, result): “Concerning habituation, evidence is more mixed: while some papers detect decreasing acceptance (Ladenburg, 2010; Ladenburg et al., 2013), others find unchanged attitudes (Eltham et al., 2008) or adaptation (Warren et al., 2005; Wolsink, 2007) over time.”
The predominance of economic development in the support for large-scale wind farms in the U.S. Great Plains (2012, methodology): “A sizable literature has developed on the topic, with studies examining attitudes toward wind energy now coming from many areas of the world including Australia [20], Greece [21–24], the Netherlands [25], Scotland [7,26–28], Sweden [13,29,30], the United Kingdom [31–33], and the United States [9,17,”
Local acceptance of renewable energy - A case study from southeast Germany (2011, background): “closest to wind farms are the most supportive (Krohn and Dambourg, 1999; Warren et al., 2005).”
Exploring the landscape of wind farm developments; local area characteristics and planning process outcomes in rural England (2010, background): “Locally anticipated landscape impacts of planned windfarms and locally experienced landscape impacts of operational windfarms have been found to differ, with the former being more disliked than the latter (Krohn and Damborg, 1999; Wolsink, 2007; Warren et al., 2005).”
