mey_2024_regional_electricity

65,648 rated or chosen profiles from 4,103 respondents, in up to 8 tasks of 2 profiles varying on 6 attributes.

About this table

DescriptionOnline panel respondents in Denmark, Germany, Poland and Portugal (Jan-Feb 2022; n = 4,103) each made 8 forced choices between two designs of a future renewable regional electricity supply varying technology, transmission expansion, land use, import share, price change and ownership.

Randomization restrictionsobserved in the data (not documented by the source): the two profiles of a task share a level far less often than independent draws would give (technology 7% vs 33%; 5-level attributes 6-10% vs 20%): overlap between the two options was limited; no cross-attribute combination is missing
Task orderrecorded in the deposit
Profile positionrecorded in the deposit

Because the attribute levels were not randomized independently, an estimator has to account for the restriction; a plain difference in means across levels can mislead.
