📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
南アフリカ特有の文脈だが、日本の再生可能エネルギー導入障壁分析にも方法論が応用可能。日本のGX政策（エネルギー基本計画など）への示唆は間接的。
In the global GX context
Focuses on South Africa's renewable energy transition barriers. While not directly applicable to Japan, the hybrid MCDM approach offers a replicable framework for analyzing energy policy challenges in other developing or emerging economies.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:The integrated DEMATEL-CRITIC-TOPSIS methodology provides a robust framework for barrier-strategy analysis in energy transitions.
🏛政策担当者:Highlights critical barriers (Agreement, Market, Knowledge) and effective strategies (community engagement) for South African renewable energy policy.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Renewable energy sources are fast becoming the most cost-effective option for adding new power generation capacity globally. In South Africa (SA), the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy has steadily gained momentum over the years. However, this transition is beset by complex and multidimensional barriers. This research study analyses and prioritises renewable energy barriers and mitigation strategies in South Africa. The DEMATEL multi-criteria decision-making technique was employed to rank the barriers and assess their cause-and-effect relationships. The findings reveal the top three barrier categories as Agreement, Market, and Knowledge. The study further employed an integrated hybrid CRITIC-TOPSIS technique to prioritise the proposed mitigation strategies for each barrier in a defined category. The results indicate that strengthening local community engagement is the most suitable solution to the adoption of renewable energy in SA. A sensitivity analysis model was conducted to validate the robustness of the results. The findings validate the consistency of the methods, with the ranking of the barriers and mitigation strategies remaining stable under various scenarios. This study presents a context-specific causal analysis of barriers and an objective prioritisation of mitigation strategies in South Africa using an integrated hybrid DEMATEL and CRITIC–TOPSIS approach, providing policymakers and decision-makers with valuable insights to develop strategic plans and policies that address the identified barriers.
