Social Acceptance and Development of Renewable Energy in Rural Area: A Critical Analysis

Ms Deepti Pande Rana, Dr. Arun Kumar Rana

Abstract :

 Social acceptance as a part of renewable energy technology implementation has largely been neglected in the eighties when the policy programs started. Most developers, including energy companies, authorities, and private local investors thought that implementation was not a problem, because the first surveys on the public acceptance of renewable, in particular wind power, revealed very high levels of support for the technology. However, the first investigations that looked beyond this simple observation tried to further elaborate the conditions that determine the effective support that applications of wind power would get. At the time, such issues were usually perceived as residual questions simply called ‘non–technical’ factors.
