本研究提出了一种应用条件价值法（CVM）的评估景观外部性与大规模开发风力发电在地方一级。该调查在希腊南埃维亚进行，该地区风能潜力丰富，在研究期间有相当数量的风电场在运营。结果显示，57%的家庭不愿意为实施干预措施以减轻风力发电场的视觉影响而提供资金。考虑到样本中的所有家庭，每个家庭为避免在该地区安装新风力发电场造成的视觉影响而支付的平均意愿估计为41.6欧元/年。与其他相关研究的结果相比，这一估计数相对较低。根据这些研究进行的元分析表明，这主要是由于希腊的大衰退和家庭可用收入减少。
This study presents an application of the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) for valuing the landscape externalities associated with the large-scale exploitation of wind power at the local level. The survey was undertaken in South Evia, Greece, which is a region with rich wind energy potential and a considerable number of wind farms in operation during the period of the study. The results showed that 57% of the households are not willing to contribute financially in order to implement interventions to mitigate the visual impact of wind farms. Τhe mean willingness to pay per household to avoid the visual impact attributed to the installation of new wind farms in the area in question was estimated at €41.6/year taking into account all households of the sample. This estimate is relatively lower compared to the results of other relevant studies. As shown by a meta-analysis developed based on these studies, this is mainly attributed to the great recession in Greece and the reduced available income of households.
