Abstract
As of 2018, the Netherlands generate 6.9 Terawatt hour (TWh) from on-shore wind farms, in sharp contrast with the intended goal of 35 TWh in 2030. Although spatially possible, there has been growing resistance from local communities. This research explores whether community ownership schemes could be able to improve public acceptance in large-scale wind farm developments, by reviewing five cases in the Netherlands. Results indicate that these schemes can indeed improve the public acceptance, though the opinions on which scheme is most suitable still differ among interviewed locals.
