澳大利亚清洁能源委员会召开峰会发布调查结果显示,澳大利亚民众对家庭电池和屋顶太阳能的支持度最高,这两类技术获得"深度支持"[1]。调查还发现,电动汽车的支持热情在特朗普攻击伊朗事件发生后有所上升[1]。此外,输电线路等主要基础设施项目的支持度也在改善[1]。
然而,可再生能源行业面临严峻挑战。组织性反对风能和太阳能的运动被评为"极其有效",已有效削弱了可再生能源的社区支持[1]。为扭转局面,澳大利亚清洁能源委员会呼吁建立国家、有立法依据的计划,将可再生能源项目收益返还当地议会,以期通过利益分享来赢得地方社区的信任[1]。
Australia's Clean Energy Council has presented survey findings at a summit revealing strong public backing for household battery systems and rooftop solar installations, marking the highest levels of community support among clean energy technologies [1]. Support for electric vehicles has also increased following recent international tensions [1].
However, organized opposition campaigns against wind and solar projects have proven "extremely effective" in undermining renewable energy support at the local level [1]. The Council has called for the establishment of a national legislative framework that would return financial benefits from renewable energy projects to local councils, arguing this approach is essential to rebuilding trust in renewable energy development among regional communities [1]. Support for major infrastructure projects such as transmission lines is also showing signs of improvement [1].
