Abstract
The utilization of renewable energy sources (res) is crucial regarding to sustainable reconstruction of energy systems. The target is a balanced, sustainable development of Hungarian energy management considering equally the ecological, social and economic aspects. There are many different technologies of utilization of res varied by sources, conversion processes, size and products. The comparison of each technology and their sustainability assessment are required by the importance of efficient remodeling of energy infrastructure. The group of attributes was composed by numerous important parameters in the course of our analysis with the choice experiment (ce) methodology. The estimation of each attributes’ influence on the individual’s preferences and choices was possible by this method and the preferences of the statistical population was concluded. So thus the utility derived from each attribute was estimated. The result of the ce analysis for the population of experts is demonstrated in the current phase of our research.
Highlights
The long-term existence of the human civilization is possible only by the harmonization of environmental, social and economic impacts of humanity and the opportunities secured by the bio-geosphere so the sustainable development
The attributes used were the same as in (Bergmann et al 2006) but the results show somewhat higher preferences in the employment attribute
The survey results regarding to warm-up questions and the experts’ attitude are obvious. 97.4% of respondents heard about sustainable development yet and according to 95% of them would be important a higher portion of renewable energy sources (RES)
Summary
The long-term existence of the human civilization is possible only by the harmonization of environmental, social and economic impacts of humanity and the opportunities secured by the bio-geosphere so the sustainable development. In this process the remodeling of current energy system is absolute necessary. The system is not sustainable because of irrational energy requirements and economic growth based energy demand, the population growth as well as the short- and long-run insecurity of the resources. The requirements of sustainability at the actual level of knowledge are fulfilled only by the renewable energy sources (RES) the role of these sources in the energy system has to be increased significantly. The complex comparison of the technologies according to the ecological, social and economic impacts is allowed by the sustainability assessment which is a useful tool to support the orientation of these policies
