Abstract Using a case study of the Búrfell wind farm project, a large wind farm proposed in the Central Highlands of Iceland, the authors attempt to provide new insights into the factors shaping subjective landscape perceptions and attitudes to renewable energy developments, and into alternative methods that may be used for their assessment. The research was based on an on-site visit and actual experience of the place, investigated using a combination of mental mapping, the technique of the semantic differential and a questionnaire survey. The results show that participants visiting a landscape and using all sensory organs in combination with mental mapping, can reveal more important information than using only ‘laboratory’ methods with static photographs. The results suggest that the perception of landscape is highly subjective. Those perceiving the landscape as more open, homogenous, industrial, unfamiliar and resilient also consider it more compatible with wind turbines. The perception of the landscape’s compatibility with wind turbines proved to be a dominant factor shaping attitudes towards the project. The acceptance of wind turbines is not, however, inconsistent with the perception of landscape as beautiful, wild and unique. Participants from more densely populated countries and countries with a developed wind energy industry were more tolerant of wind turbines in the Icelandic landscape.

现场评估在景观中放置可再生能源的重要性：以布费尔风电场（冰岛）为例

摘要作者以冰岛中部高地提议的大型风电场Búrfell风电场项目为例，试图为塑造主观景观感知因素和对可再生能源发展态度的因素提供新见解，并为替代方法提供新见解。可用于他们的评估。该研究基于现场访问和该地点的实际经验，结合了心理测绘，语义差异技术和问卷调查进行了调查。结果表明，与仅使用静态照片的“实验室”方法相比，参观风景并使用所有感觉器官与心理测绘相结合的参与者可以揭示更重要的信息。结果表明，对景观的感知是高度主观的。那些认为景观更加开放，同质，工业，陌生和弹性的人也认为它与风力涡轮机更加兼容。对景观与风力涡轮机的兼容性的感知被证明是塑造对该项目态度的主要因素。然而，风力涡轮机的接受与对景观的美丽，野性和独特感并不矛盾。来自人口稠密国家和风能产业发达的国家的参与者对冰岛景观中的风力涡轮机更加宽容。然而，风力涡轮机的接受与对景观的美丽，野性和独特感并不矛盾。来自人口稠密国家和风能产业发达的国家的参与者对冰岛景观中的风力涡轮机更加宽容。然而，风力涡轮机的接受与对景观的美丽，野性和独特感并不矛盾。来自人口稠密国家和风能产业发达的国家的参与者对冰岛景观中的风力涡轮机更加宽容。
