ドイツの地域熱計画において、自治体とエネルギー事業者の間で課題認識と成功要因の評価に「逆転効果」があることを、267人の調査に基づき実証。自治体はコミュニケーションや責任明確化を重視する一方、事業者はそれらを困難と捉える傾向が明らかになった。この認識差が合意形成や計画プロセスに及ぼす影響を議論している。
English
Based on a survey of 267 participants, this study reveals an 'inversion effect' in how municipalities and utilities evaluate challenges and success factors in German local heat planning. Municipalities prioritize communication, clear responsibilities, and concrete measures, while utilities perceive these as more challenging. The paper discusses implications for collective decision-making in networked multi-stakeholder governance.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本では地域熱計画の制度は未整備だが、地域エネルギー転換や自治体と事業者の協働は重要度を増している。本論文のステークホルダー認識差の分析手法は、日本の地域脱炭素政策や官民連携の設計に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes to the global literature on multi-stakeholder governance in the energy transition, particularly for local climate policies like heat planning. Its findings on perceptual inversion between public and private actors are relevant for countries implementing decentralized energy and climate strategies under frameworks like the EU Green Deal or national net-zero targets.

📄 Abstract(原文)
The fate of the energy transition hinges not only on having well-crafted policies in place but on their successful implementation as well. In some cases, such as heat planning, the implementation is highly localized and involves both public and private parties without clear hierarchies, as is typical of networked multi-stakeholder governance processes. Such processes are often characterized by difficult collective decision-making due to differing perceptions of challenges and priorities. Accordingly, mapping out the priorities and perceptual differences among stakeholders is an important prerequisite for maintaining effective governance. In this paper, we study the evaluation of challenges and success factors among municipalities and utilities in the context of heat planning in Germany, based on a survey of 267 participants. We identify an “inversion effect” when comparing the ratings of challenges and success factors: While municipalities perceive factors such as effective communication, clearly defined responsibilities and concrete measures and projects as more important than their utility counterparts, utilities see them as more challenging. We discuss the potential complications of such perceptual inversion for collective goal-setting and decision-making, and for the heat planning process more generally.
