In the green? Perceptions of hydrogen production methods among the Norwegian public

Reconfiguring European industry for net-zero: a qualitative review of hydrogen and carbon capture utilization and storage benefits and implementation challenges

“…”. Bensten and colleagues 8 similarly highlight that unclear communications about new hydrogen technologies could lead to public distrust in companies and politicians. Other studies have furthermore accentuated the increasing lack of public trust in the oil and gas industries, 152–154 at times leading to fierce face local opposition.…”

“…At present there is a wealth of emergent research looking at the social acceptability of individual technology options ( e.g. renewable energy, 7 hydrogen 8 and CCS 9 ), on community responses to local siting proposals ( e.g. longstanding risk perceptions work on radioactive waste siting, 10 not-in-my-backyard (NIMBY) attitudes for wind energy, 11 distrust over shale gas 12 ), and on community perceptions of local environmental risks ( e.g.…”

Heterogeneous preferences for living in a hydrogen home: an advanced multigroup analysis

“…Overall, the international literature (see Table 5) suggests public support for green hydrogen production will likely trump other pathways, 58,296,303,307 and may be coupled to perceptions of synergistic benets for cross-sectoral decarbonisation. 308,309 Against this rich background, two additional hypotheses are examined to extend the scope of inquiry: H5a: Production perceptions will have a positive inuence on the perceived adoption potential of hydrogen homes across consumer sub-groups of the UK population.…”

“…Reviewing international evidence on public perceptions of energy transition pathways, 300 alongside emerging evidence on hydrogen production technologies 302,303 and perceived environmental benefits, 47 is instructive to the case at hand. Specifically, the UK government is targeting a ‘twin-track’ production approach, which aims to leverage benefits from a blue pathway, alongside a renewable-based ( i.e.…”
