Evaluation of consequences. Table 17 shows respondents’ evaluation of various consequences generally associated to hydro- gen vehicles. Seven consequences regarding the potential impacts of FCEVs were briefly intro- duced to study participants. Then, they were asked to evaluate, in a scale from 1 to 5, where 1 means very negative and 5 means very positive, each of the consequences. The data show that the three consequences evaluated in the total sample as the most positive are the fact that “they will reduce the need for petroleum” (86% of participants rated it as a posi- tive or very positive consequence, M= 4.31), it “would produce lower CO2 emissions than con- ventional cars” (86%, M= 4.30) and the “price of hydrogen” (79%, M= 4.06). The “range” and “safety issues” were, on average, as positive to not important consequences (M= 3.53 and 2.89 respectively). The “infrastructure needed” and “price of fuel cell material” were rated as some- how negative consequences (M= 2.53 and 2.24 respectively). In terms of agreement between participants, we find that the three consequences rated as more positive (reduction of the need for petroleum, lower CO2 emissions and price of hydrogen) gen- erate a greater degree of agreement (standard deviations between 0.80 and 0.94). Participants agree less on their evaluation of the two consequences rated as more negative; infrastructure needed and the price of fuel cell material (standard deviations between 1.32 and 1.28).

Evaluation of consequences. Participants were then provided with information regarding some of the potential consequences of the implementation of the specific FCH application. Each of the consequences was related to one potential benefit/cost of the application. This information was carefully designed and reviewed by experts in the consortium. Participants were then asked to rate each of the consequences in a scale from 1 to 5 (from very negative to very positive). The main objective of this exercise was to allow for an informed evaluation of the application by the participants. The exercise was based on the Information Choice Questionnaire (Best- waldhober & Xxxxxx, 2006b).

Evaluation of consequences. Table 8 shows respondents’ evaluation of distinct consequences associated to residential FCHs. Six consequences regarding the potential impacts of installing residential FCHs were introduced to study participants by presenting them a short text for each consequence (see Figure 15). Then, respondents were asked to evaluate, in a scale from 1 to 5, where 1 means very negative and 5 means very positive, each of the consequences. The data show that the three consequences evaluated as the most positive are the fact that “it will reduce the cost of producing energy” (86% of participants rate it as a positive or very posi- tive consequence, M= 4.3), that it “would reduce CO2 emissions” (86%, M= 4.3) and that they would reduce the need to purchase electricity from the power company (85%, M= 4.2). The “house space requirements” and the “potential risks” are, on average, rated as not important- positive consequences (M= 3.8 and 3.2 respectively). The initial capital costs is rated as a nega- tive-neutral consequence (M= 2.6). In terms of agreement between participants, we find that the three consequences rated as more positive (reduction of the need to purchase electricity, CO2 emissions and lower cost of energy production) generate a greater degree of agreement (SD= 0.82 and SD=0.84). Participants agree less on their evaluation of the house space requirements and the risks of the installation (SD= 1.10). The initial capital costs is the consequence generating a lower degree of agreement be- tween participants (SD= 1.26) (Table 8).

Taking into account all the consequences evaluated, there is a more positive general evaluation of the consequences in Germany (M= 3.86) and Slovenia (3.89) and a more negative evaluation in Norway (3.61) and United Kingdom (3.63).
