在本文中，我们讨论的重要性，制定公众接受的可持续能源转型的价值观和“整体系统”的透镜的问题。这一论断是基于一个重大研究项目的调查结果，该项目采用混合方法（六个审议讲习班，n=68，和一个全国代表性调查，n = 2441），跨学科的方法，研究公众的价值观，态度和可接受性方面的整个能源系统的变化。通过研究，我们确定了一套社会价值观与理想的能源未来在英国，在那里的价值观代表可识别的文化资源，人们借鉴，以指导他们的偏好形成有关的特定方面的能源系统的变化。因此，我们认为公众的观点是由六个价值集群支撑的，这些价值集群与效率和浪费、环境和自然、安全和稳定、社会正义和公平、自主和权力以及过程和变革有关。我们认为，这个“价值体系”提供了一个基础，了解公众接受或拒绝不同的能源系统方面和过程的核心原因。我们的结论是，重点关注的价值观，支持更具体的偏好，能源系统的变化带来的见解，可以提供一个基础，改善对话，更强大的决策，并预测可能的冲突点在能源转型。(C)2015作者爱思唯尔有限公司出版
In this paper we discuss the importance of framing the question of public acceptance of sustainable energy transitions in terms of values and a 'whole-system' lens. This assertion is based on findings arising from a major research project examining public values, attitudes and acceptability with regards to whole energy system change using a mixed-method (six deliberative workshops, n=68, and a nationally representative survey, n = 2441), interdisciplinary approach. Through the research we identify a set of social values associated with desirable energy futures in the UK, where the values represent identifiable cultural resources people draw on to guide their preference formation about particular aspects of energy system change. As such, we characterise public perspectives as being underpinned by six value clusters relating to efficiency and wastefulness, environment and nature, security and stability, social justice and fairness, autonomy and power, and processes and change. We argue that this 'value system' provides a basis for understanding core reasons for public acceptance or rejection of different energy system aspects and processes. We conclude that a focus on values that underpin more specific preferences for energy system change brings insights that could provide a basis for improved dialogue, more robust decision-making, and for anticipating likely points of conflict in energy transitions.
