Diffusion of Innovative Energy Services: Consumers’ Acceptance and Willingness to Pay consolidates research in the diffusion, adoption and acceptance of Innovative energy services (IES), including dynamic green electricity tariffs, small-scale energy generators, and smart metering information systems among residential electricity consumers. The book addresses consumer awareness, acceptance and engagement towards smart technologies, focusing on the ‘willingness to pay’ for IES. Chapters address findings from field experiments, pilot programs and simulation methods such as agent-based modeling. Case studies involve various countries and continents, with a focus on modern, pro-environmental and sustainable economies, where IES are offered. Policy recommendations, tools and interventions as well as behavioral strategies conclude the work.
Ecosystem Service Potentials and Their Indicators in Postglacial Landscapes: Assessment and Mapping provides valuable guidance for anyone involved with ecosystem service potential monitoring, use and management-from landscape ecologists and environmental managers, to policymakers and environmental economists. The book highlights effective measurement tools for evaluating the overall potential of ecosystem services from multiple perspectives. Beginning with an introduction to ecosystem services and the theoretical assumptions and objectives associated with their assessment, the book goes on to outline interdisciplinary methods of evaluation and analysis that are fully supported and illustrated throughout using an insightful case study focused on Wigry National Park. A range of different spatial reference units are also discussed, followed by chapters on both analytical and synthetic approaches to identifying service supply potential. In addition, the use of services and the impact of these uses on the assessment of potential is included, along with a discussion of the future shape of ecosystem service assessment.
