Anchoring on visual cues in a stated preference survey: The case of siting offshore wind power projects

Do People Prefer Offshore to Onshore Wind Energy? The Role of Ownership and Intended Use

“…Admittedly, there is a growing research literature on social acceptance for offshore wind energy, and most of these studies address the various impacts of siting decisions. This research supports the contention that offshore wind energy facilities are often (but not always [6]) preferred over nearshore and onshore production facilities [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14], and that locations farther off the coast are often (but not always [15]) preferred to locations closer to the coast for offshore production facilities [9,10,[16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…A set of other DCEs have established the visual or environmental disamenity effect of offshore wind energy at different distances from the shore, all else equal. These studies revealed a preference for moving wind energy projects from nearshore to offshore locations [9,10,[17][18][19][20], although the preferences are context specific and may be insignificant and/or vary across individuals [15]. For example, Ladenburg and Dubgaard [19,20] conducted a DCE on Danish residents.…”

“…For which, this study considered 2 holdouts for the respondents to answer. The results showed a high level of internal validity and consistency [ 28 , 57 ].…”

“…This is consistent with the first attribute considered about the efficacy. Among the brands, Pfizer and Moderna had the highest efficacy rates of 95% and 94.7%, respectively [ 57 , 58 ]. In addition, Terry [ 59 ] showed that AstraZeneca had an efficacy rate of 70%, Johnsons and Johnsons with 72%, and Sinovac having 50.38%–91.25% on different clinical trials.…”
