“…People can choose green power products voluntarily according to their preference for new energy. They can not only guide people to pay more attention to green consumption demand but also positively impact the promotion of new energy as one of the supplements of government energy policies (Chen and Zhang, 2021;Zhang et al, 2022). The present study found that the number of studies focusing on new energy policy increases over time.…”

Literature reviews and interviews with experts showed that new energy would be the future way of life instead of traditional energy. In this study, a questionnaire survey and SPSS model are used to examine the impacts on people’s new energy usage behavior (NEUB) by its cognitions of energy-related environmental accidents (CEREA) and new energy policies (CNEP), as well as other important factors affecting this behavior. The new energy usage behavior examines people’s new energy usage behavior of product usage (NEUBPU) and forecasted payment (NEUBFP). Among the influencing factors, people’s cognitions of energy-related environmental accidents (CEREA), people’s cognitions of new energy policies (CNEP), new energy characteristics (CNEC), new energy advantages (CNEA), and new energy disadvantages (CNED) are examined, and the influence of personal factors on NEUB is also examined. People’s new energy usage behavior of new energy stove (NEUBNES), new energy car (NEUBNEC), and NEUBFP are significantly positively correlated with CNEP; NEUBNEC is significantly positively correlated with CNEA, and NEUBFP is significantly positively correlated with CNEP and CNED. CNEC and CNEP significantly influence people’s new energy usage behavior of household photovoltaic system (NEUBHPS); CNEP significantly influences NEUBNES; age, monthly income, CNEA, and CNEP significantly influence NEUBNEC; age, monthly income, and CNEP significantly influence NEUBFP.

Given the importance of data safety for psychology, the present study investigated the influence of data leaking scandal on campus customers’ financial consumption behaviors at intelligent tourism platforms in China, and explored the roles that individual characteristics play in this process by focusing on a set of participants from colleges. Data were collected through sending out an online questionnaire, where respondents were asked to finish a series of questions about their background information, their trust, future consuming intention, and defensive behaviors toward intelligent platforms. After they finished these questions, a short description about an online tourism platform leaking customers’ personal information was presented to the respondents, following which they were asked to report about their future consuming intentions and defensive behaviors again. In total, 236 participants of college students and teachers were recruited. Paired samples mean comparison showed that after the stimulus was presented, the respondents had a significant decrease in future financial consumption intention, and a significant increase in defensive behaviors toward online tourism platforms due to risks perceived. Multiple regression analysis was conducted subsequently to investigate individual characteristics that may account for part of the decrease (increase) in consuming intention (defensive behaviors). Results showed that, customers with higher level of trust and monthly income, as well as older customers, tend to experience higher level of decrease in consuming intention, and increase in defensive behaviors. These findings highlighted the importance of online tourism platforms guaranteeing data security of their customers.

“…For example, Zongxian et al [9] believe that the rapid development of China's solar photothermal industry is mainly attributed to the fact that the price of solar photothermal, a new energy source, is lower than that of traditional energy sources such as electricity and natural gas, which can fully meet the needs of residents. It is further found that the rising price of traditional energy sources, the improvement of residents' living conditions and behavior, large-scale housing construction, and Chinese society's emphasizing on environmental protection will further promote the growth of the solar thermal industry [10,11]. As for investment costs, like all emerging industries, the investment cost of photothermal technology is relatively high due to the lack of large-scale production in the early stage of development.…”

The carbon emission reduction potential of photothermal utilization of solar energy is outstanding, but the breakthrough of technology is closely related to the management of innovation and research in higher educational institutions. What factors affect such relationship is discussed in this paper. Based on the photothermal technology project data released by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and China education yearbook, this paper analyzes the variable relationship between the output of solar thermal technology innovation and industrial demand. Specifically, the negative binomial regression was constructed based on the technological project approval data. The results show that the input of scientific research resources has a key influence on the development of solar thermal technology, the establishment of technological projects or the subsequent patent application derived from technological projects. The results also show that the demand for photothermal technology and green innovation complement each other.
