Abstract:
Bio-fuels are – not least due to the debate on E10 – a widely discussed topic in Germany. The amendment and implementation of Germany s biomass strategy raises the question of how sustainable biomass production and use can be realized. Following a systemic approach and the assumption of interdependency between stakeholders’ and users’ systems, knowledge about stakeholders’ networks is crucial for the sustainable integration of bio-fuels market access. In the research project -Acceptance of Bio-fuels- the Research Group Environmental Psychology investigated the variety of perspectives and acceptance positions in the most varying bio-fuels stakeholder systems to analyse relationships and constellations and to derive room for improvement. In a workshop, designed to assess these potentials via solution-focused intervention methods and mediational elements, several insights and concrete activity suggestions were produced.
