“…We have not sought to regress against R&D indicators, though -as with many of the findings, this merits further investigation. We can more confidently say that support and opposition is associated with specific characteristics that span countries (gender, education, urban and affluence, prior attitudes towards energy issues and towards specific alternative energy technologies (Pietzner et al 2011)), though again further work would be needed to characterise any further associations.…”

There is increasing realisation amongst policy makers and industry that 'social acceptance' is a key issue in the deployment of low carbon energy technologies and infrastructures in Europe. The development of hydrogen fuel cell technologies (HFCs) involves small-scale residential and transport applications, as well as large-scale infrastructures, the socio-technical embedment of which will be influenced by the public and stakeholders in various roles. Previous research on public acceptance has investigated public perceptions of HFCs in specific countries. resumenCada vez hay más conciencia entre los responsables políticos y la industria de que la "aceptación social" es un tema clave en el despliegue de tecnologías e infraestructuras energéticas de baja emisión de carbono en Europa. El desarrollo de las tecnologías de pilas de combustible de hidrógeno (HFC) implica aplicaciones a pequeña escala en el sector residencial y del transporte, así como infraestructuras de gran escala, cuya incorporación sociotécnica estará influenciada por el público y las partes interesadas.

“…Here, the reactions of local publics to storage projects have been under great scrutiny [11,12]. Not-in-my-backyard (NIMBY), or more accurately, not-under-my-backyard, effects have been differentiated from general reactions by measuring the reactions of offsite and onsite publics [13].…”

In this research, the highly controversial Carbon Capture and Storage technology is scrutinized from the cultural structures perspective. We argue that it is crucial to have a richer understanding of where public opinion on the technology comes from, and we develop a model that helps to understanding this. We use survey data provided by the Eurobarometer. Also, six cross-cultural dimensions developed by Hofstede are used. Lastly, two indices, Risk Acceptance and Self-Benefit, are used to design a regression model to argue that public acceptance and risk perception of the novel technology is not a simple case of information transfer and knowledge dissemination. We provide a framework for analysts and policy makers who wish to understand why and how societies and social actors challenge and contest the technology.

“…Pro-active risk communication and early involvement of stakeholders will also help to address concerns about procedural fairness (Bradbury et al, 2009). We discovered that another reason for communicating now is that, while CCS remains relatively unfamiliar in most countries (Pietzner et al, 2011), people will likely be open to receiving information and approach it with an open mind. That may change after people form their first impressions about CCS, perhaps based on limited facts.…”

“…As a result, first impressions about CCS can linger and solidify, even if they are initially feeble and easy to influence (de Best-Waldhober, Daamen, & Faaij, 2009;Pietzner et al, 2011).…”
