Abstract

We study the preferences in the city of Santiago of Chile about local Solar PV energy. We use an online survey (distributed during August and October 2018, with 99 valid responses) to identify prevalent perceptions, barriers, and opportunities related to local solar PV projects in the Santiago Metropolitan Region of Chile. We analyze survey results to explore heterogeneity in willingness to pay for energy from a local solar project and willingness to devote time to community led solar developments. Results can provide a better understanding of who is and is not interested in local solar energy options, informing public policy makers.
