Abstract
This paper investigates what can promote green energy projects on land which consist of solar and wind power. The research is done with an economic geographic framework of path-development. A paradigmatic case study is conducted with scientific semi-structured interviews and short “pop-up interviews” which validated the in-depth interviews. These pop-up interviews also highlight further points and nuances to the findings that is aimed to contribute to the knowledge to the field of what facilitates the location of green energy. In the context of green energy projects, it is found that actors and their approach to exercise their agency is vital to the success and/or failure of green energy projects. Both for individual actors and in groups... (More)
This paper investigates what can promote green energy projects on land which consist of solar and wind power. The research is done with an economic geographic framework of path-development. A paradigmatic case study is conducted with scientific semi-structured interviews and short “pop-up interviews” which validated the in-depth interviews. These pop-up interviews also highlight further points and nuances to the findings that is aimed to contribute to the knowledge to the field of what facilitates the location of green energy. In the context of green energy projects, it is found that actors and their approach to exercise their agency is vital to the success and/or failure of green energy projects. Both for individual actors and in groups it is important that agency is applied in respect to wishes and concerns between the different actors in question. Different actors have a significant importance during different phases of establishing green energy projects as path developments. (Less)
