摘   要:自从饲料关税(FIT:一项促进可再生能源推广的补贴政策)的实施以来,通过安装过多的太阳能电池板来从光伏发电的电力销售中赚取收入的外部不经济现象已经变得很明显。因此,本研究的目的是确定安装光伏发电设施对居民生活空间的影响。

本研究以日本东北部关东地区5个县的居民为对象,利用网络调查数据,进行空间自相关分析,以确定光伏发电设施引起的不适的空间分布。结果清楚地表明,结果清楚地表明,随着太阳能电池板在居住空间的安装,居住在这些集群中的居民的空间不适性增加。部分居民打算提出激进的要求,要求公司采取行动,以缓解他们的不适;这种行为可能导致环境冲突。

研究结果表明,为了减少这种不适的蔓延,有必要采取激进的解决方案。通过进一步利用本研究获得的数据,将有可能更客观地估计与太阳能电池板相关冲突的风险地区。

 

 

 

Abstract:Since the implementation of feed in tariffs (FIT: a subsidy policy to promote the spread of renewable energy), the external diseconomies of solar panels installed in excess, to earn income from the sale of electricity from photovoltaic power generation, have become apparent. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to identify the impact of the installation of photovoltaic power generation facilities on the living space of citizens. Using data collected through a web survey of residents living in five prefectures in the north-eastern Kanto region of Japan, a spatial autocorrelation analysis was conducted to identify the spatial distribution of discomfort caused by photovoltaic power generation facilities. The results clearly indicated that the spatial discomfort of these residents living in clusters, increased with the installation of the solar panels in their living space. Some of the residents intend making radical demands for corporate action to alleviate their discomfort; such actions can lead to environmental conflict. The results demonstrate that radical solutions are necessary to reduce the spread of this discomfort. By further utilizing the data obtained in this study, it will be possible to estimate the regions at risk of solar panel-related conflict more objectively.
