Perceptions of clean energy technologies in Europe
Clean Air Task Force, together with the policy and advocacy consultancy Stonehaven, conducted public polling on awareness and perception of clean energy technologies (including advanced nuclear energy, carbon capture and storage (CCS), low-carbon hydrogen, and superhot rock (SHR) geothermal energy) across six different European countries: Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Spain, and the United Kingdom (UK). This presentation explores the results…
