Economists have neglected place attachment as a potential explanation for people's preferences for environmental goods. We conducted the first discrete choice experiment to assess the place attachment concept in the valuation of and response to the place-specific environmental impact from a...

Despite a large stated-preference literature on wind power externalities, few SP studies employ a case-control approach to examine whether people's acceptance of new wind power developments increases or decreases with exposure to and familiarity with wind turbines. Furthermore, the existing...

Negative environmental externalities associated with wind power plants depend on the physical characteristics of turbine installations and associated power lines and the geographical siting. We derive analytically an environmental taxation scheme for achieving the efficient spatial distribution...

Energy generated from land-based wind power is expected to play a crucial role in the decarbonisation of the economy. With the looming biodiversity and nature crises, spatial allocation of wind power cannot, however, any longer be considered solely a trade-off against local disamenity costs....
