Marine Renewable Energy: Public perception and acceptability

海洋可再生能源是当前和未来全球可再生能源和碳减排目标的关键要素。随着海洋可再生能源部署的数量和规模的增加，与沿海社区的互动也将增加。陆上可再生能源的研究表明，可再生能源设施的社会可接受性对其成功至关重要。该项目将：确定最有可能受到海洋可再生能源影响的社区；探索不同技术选择的可接受性；以及分析公众对现有项目的看法。

Marine renewable energy is a key element of current and future global renewable energy and carbon emissions reduction targets. As the number and size of marine renewable energy deployments increases, so too will interactions with coastal communities. Research from onshore renewable energy has demonstrated that the social acceptability of renewable energy installations is crucial to their success. This project will: identify the communities most likely to be impacted by marine renewable energy; explore the acceptability of different technological options; and analyse public perception around existing projects.
