Analyzing Causal Factors Constructing the Local Energy Governancedownload
Recently, the government has developed a plan for achieving a fundamentalchange in the paradigm of energy policy. However, the government is merelyone of a variety of actors rather than the leading actors related with the energypolicy. This requires the local energy governance that can be featured by theparticipation and cooperation, including the voluntary practice and interactionwith various actors at the local level. In this study, based on a study of surveyresponse from citizens on the energy policy, we identify the voluntary practice,political participation, and economic cooperation of citizens that are importantelements for energy governance at the local level and analyze the factors thataffect constructing the local energy governance. According to the analysis of thefactors that affect the construction of local energy governance, all variables(knowledge, risk perception, trust, communication skills, energy security, andenvironmental justice) are affecting the local energy governance substantially.
