Abstract

To systematically identify constraints on the promotion of renewable energy sources (RES) projects, in this study an improved technology acceptance model (TAM) was proposed, and fifteen constraints were extracted from stakeholders view taking the waste incineration power generation project as an example. The integrated methods of Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) and Interpretive Structural Model (ISM) were jointly employed to analyze coupling effects among constraints and influence hierarchy of constraints, and to classify transfer paths among different constraints and their impact intensity on projects promotion. The targeted hierarchically intervention strategies were proposed from the perspective of controlling the key nodes of transfer paths of delayed payment of fees and public opposition, as well as general projects management. Results show that insufficient resources reserve and weak environmental awareness are the deep-rooted constraints; imperfect legal systems, mismatch between parameter setting and regional planning, over-expenditure of operational cost, and improper site selection are profound constraints; delayed payment of fees and public opposition are direct constraints. The findings suggest adequate intervention in deep-rooted constraints and profound constraints can fundamentally promote waste incineration power generation projects, and controlling the transfer paths can be an effective way to intervene the constraints on projects promotion.
