Public Preferences For Five Electricity Grid Decarbonization Policies In California(Sic)(Sic)(Sic)Palabras Clave
REVIEW OF POLICY RESEARCH(2021)
摘要
The climate crisis and associated push for distributed, renewable electricity generation necessitate policy changes to decarbonize and modernize the electricity grid. Some of these changes-e.g., smart meter rollouts and tax credits for solar panel adoption-have received attention in the media and from social scientists to understand public perceptions and responses. Others-e.g., allowing peer-to-peer electricity sales, promoting residential electrification, requiring solar panels on new development, funding microgrids, and paying customers to allow for utility control of electricity use-have received less attention. Here, we explore public perceptions of these understudied policies among California residents (n = 804), a state recognized for innovative energy policy. A majority of respondents supported only one of the policies-requiring solar panels on new development. Others elicited more indecision; few were strongly opposed. In general, male respondents and those with college degrees were more supportive of such policies, as were those more concerned about climate change and with a more open orientation to smart home technologies.
