Understanding the antecedents of biomass heating adoption by domestic users is important for both public authorities and businesses because of the impact of this technology on energy consumption. The purpose of this study offers an overview of the predictors of biomass adoption based on the most relevant theories, gleaned from pro-environmental decision-making research.,The proposed model was tested using the partial least squares technique. The study was conducted with a sample of 528 owners of detached houses who did not use biomass technology.,The results showed that intention to adopt this type of heating system is determined by individual values, environmental concerns, attitudes, perceived control, personal and social norms, perceptions of the technology’s attributes, of the benefits of biomass and access to economic aid.,Companies in the biomass heating sector (manufacturers, installers, biomass producers and distributors) and public bodies should take a proactive approach toward the economic and environmental situations they currently face.,Economic aid or subsidies should be made available to influence the adoption intention of potential owners; and the availability of the aid and the requirements that must be met to access, it should be publicized through advertisement campaigns.,This study includes comprehensive academic and managerial implications crucial for the introduction of domestic biomass heating systems.

采用国产生物质供暖系统的主要决定因素

由于这项技术对能源消耗的影响,了解家庭用户采用生物质供暖的前因对公共当局和企业都很重要。本研究的目的是根据从亲环境决策研究中收集的最相关的理论,对生物量采用的预测因素进行概述。使用偏最小二乘法对所提出的模型进行了测试。该研究对 528 名未使用生物质技术的独立屋业主进行了抽样调查。结果表明,采用这种供暖系统的意愿取决于个人价值观、环境问题、态度、感知控制、个人和社会规范,对技术属性的看法,对生物质的好处和获得经济援助的机会。生物质供暖行业的公司(制造商、安装商、生物质生产商和分销商)和公共机构应对他们目前面临的经济和环境状况采取积极主动的态度。应提供经济援助或补贴来影响潜在客户的采用意愿。拥有者; 以及援助的可用性和必须满足的要求,应通过广告活动进行宣传。本研究包括对引入国内生物质供暖系统至关重要的综合学术和管理影响。应提供经济援助或补贴,以影响潜在所有者的收养意图;以及援助的可用性和必须满足的要求,应通过广告活动进行宣传。本研究包括对引入国内生物质供暖系统至关重要的综合学术和管理影响。应提供经济援助或补贴,以影响潜在所有者的收养意图;以及援助的可用性和必须满足的要求,应通过广告活动进行宣传。本研究包括对引入国内生物质供暖系统至关重要的综合学术和管理影响。
