Abstract
Currently, there are three ongoing developments: an energy transition towards the use of renewable energy sources, an increase in the amount of local (renewable energy) initiatives, and an integrated planning approach in the transport infrastructure sector. Combining these three devlopments could result in a situation in which Dutch transport infrastructure is surrounded by solar PV-installations with the involvement of a local renewable energy initiative. Despite the recognized potential, situations like these are hardly realized. By using the IAD-framework of Ostrom, this research investigated eight institutional barriers that currently obstruct the realization of such a situation. Additionally, this research identified several possibilities to tackle these institutional barriers. Currently, the possibilities to realize a cooperative solar PV-installation on lands surrounding transport infrastructure are limited. Stakeholders such as Rijkswaterstaat and municipalities could play an important role in increasing these possibilities. This research concludes with explicit recommendations applicable to planning practice.
