Consequently, the community acceptance of renewables, such as wind energy, has become a crux for Europe in both achieving and going beyond its renewable energy targets. Significant academic literature has already been devoted to conceptualising the community acceptance of wind energy. This article builds on the existing research by showcasing how regions and municipalities across Europe have successfully and effectively been able to overcome barriers to community acceptance. In doing so, 10 best practice case studies across six European countries have been carefully identified and investigated. The results of individual assessment of these different cases, each of which employ different types of measures/approaches, are comparatively analysed in order to identify the key success factors (drivers) for achieving community acceptance of wind energy in Europe. The identification of the success factors serves to start paving the way for the transfer of these measures/approaches to other municipalities and regions across Europe, particularly those who may encounter similar barriers of community acceptance of wind energy. Thus, our findings deliver to policy makers and developers a number of lessons learnt on how to organise future actions by proposing ways their activities can enhance community acceptance.","21 Seiten","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/27281||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-27037","eng","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","300 Sozialwissenschaften::320 Politikwissenschaft::320 Politikwissenschaft","wind energy||social acceptance||best practices||knowledge transfer||lessons for policy","Overcoming Barriers to the Community Acceptance of Wind Energy: Lessons Learnt from a Comparative Analysis of Best Practice Cases across Europe","Wissenschaftlicher Artikel","open access","3562","10.3390/su12093562","Sustainability","9","MDPI","https://doi.org/10.3390/su12093562","12","2071-1050","Politik- und Sozialwissenschaften","Otto-Suhr-Institut für Politikwissenschaft / Forschungszentrum für Umweltpolitik (FFU):::5e9c66fc-04c5-475c-8aa1-1ff26e84d936:::600","no"
