Abstract
Our results show that price and equipment issues (operation, maintenance) were often seen as barriers to buying green energy. Energy savings and energy security were most often chosen as motivations for buying green energy and environmental reasons were less frequently chosen. Yet, buying green energy would have a strong environmental meaning for many respondents. Several respondents mentioned that lower prices and government subsidies could motivate them to buy green energy, and that more information and advertisement campaigns are needed.
