Valuing climate protection through willingness to pay for biomass ethanol (2009, background): “Several studies of consumer WTP for “green” electricity, including electricity generated from biomass energy sources, have been conducted since the late 1990s (e.g., Ethier et al., 2000; Zarnikau, 2003; Bergmann et al., 2006; Hansla et al., 2008; Longo et al., 2008).”

Does willingness to pay for green energy differ by source? A contingent choice experiment (2007, background): “These studies elicit WTP for various aspects of green energy, where ‘‘green energy’’ is a generic product (Byrnes et al., 1999; Ethier et al., 2000; Gossling et al., 2005; Zarnikau, 2003) or focus on the environmental attributes associated with green energy (Bergmann et al.”
