本文的目的是分析和比较土地利用政策对风力发电部署在区域一级在德国和瑞典的影响。我们使用2008-2012年期间的数据和计量经济学方法，其中允许通过不同的过程来确定任何风电容量增加的概率和增加容量的实际水平（假设为正）。结果证实了土地使用政策的重要性，例如，优先领域的影响在德国更为深远，而保护区的分配在瑞典则构成了一种更具约束力的政策工具。各种解释变量的相关性的跨国差异与地理模式、风力发电支持计划的设计以及规划过程中决策权的分配等因素有关。
The purpose of this paper is to analyze and compare the impacts of land-use policies on wind power deployment at the regional levels in Germany and Sweden. We use data for the period 2008–2012, and an econometric approach in which the probability of having any wind power capacity additions and the actual level of increased capacity, given that it is positive, are permitted to be determined by different processes. The results confirm the importance of land-use policies, e.g., priority and exclusion areas, and interesting differences across the two countries are found. The impact of priority areas has been more profound in Germany, while the assignment of protected areas instead has constituted a more binding policy tool in Sweden. Cross-country differences in the relevance of various explanatory variables are linked to factors such as geographical patterns, design of wind power support schemes, and the allocation of decision-making power in planning processes.
