The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the factors influencing the public's attitude toward policy support and intention to pay for energy transition from nuclear to renewable energy. We focus on inconsistency issues between attitude and intention. To this end, we set the attitude toward policy support and behavioral intention to pay as dependent variables, and value factors (i.e., ideology, political support for the current Moon Jae-in government, environmentalism, and science-technology optimism) and perception factors (i.e., perceived risk, benefit, knowledge, and trust) as the independent variables. Based on a survey, the analysis showed that at the variable level, the perceived benefits and trust in renewable energy and perceived risks and benefits in nuclear energy influenced the attitude toward policy support and the intention to pay for energy transition. Second, when evaluating the explanatory power of independent variables, the attitude toward the energy transition was affected in the following order: (1) perceived benefit in nuclear power (β = 0.259) > (2) perceived benefit in renewable energy (β = -0.219) > (3) perceived risk in nuclear energy (β = 0.202) > (4) Moon Jae-in government support (β = 0.146). On the other hand, behavioral intention to pay for energy transition was influenced in the following order: (1) trust in renewable energy (β = 0.252) > (2) Moon Jae-in government support (β = 0.154) > (3) perceived risk in nuclear energy (β = 0.139) > (4) perceived benefit in renewable energy (β = 0.099). Third, variables such as environmentalism, perceived benefit/risk/trust in renewable energy, and perceived benefit/risk in nuclear energy affected inconsistency between attitude toward policy support and intention to pay for energy transition.
本研究旨在比较和分析影响公众对能源转型政策支持态度和支付意愿的因素。我们关注态度和意愿之间的不一致性问题。为此，我们将政策支持态度和支付意愿作为因变量，将价值因素（即意识形态、对当前文在寅政府的政治支持、环保主义和科技乐观主义）和感知因素（即感知风险、收益、知识和信任）作为自变量。基于调查分析表明，在变量层面上，可再生能源的感知收益和信任以及核能的感知风险和收益影响了政策支持态度和能源转型支付意愿。其次，在评估自变量的解释力时，能源转型的态度受到以下因素的影响：（1）核能的感知收益（β=0.259）＞（2）可再生能源的感知收益（β=-0.219）＞（3）核能的感知风险（β=0.202）＞（4）文在寅政府的支持（β=0.146）。另一方面，能源转型的支付意愿受到以下因素的影响：（1）对可再生能源的信任（β=0.252）＞（2）文在寅政府的支持（β=0.154）＞（3）核能的感知风险（β=0.139）＞（4）可再生能源的感知收益（β=0.099）。第三，环保主义、对可再生能源的感知收益/风险/信任以及对核能的感知收益/风险等变量影响了政策支持态度和能源转型支付意愿之间的不一致性。
