Designing a model for enhancing intention to accept renewable energy technologies in rural communities of Ilam province, Iran
Summary. Rural households in Iran's Ilam province show stronger intention to adopt renewable energy when they perceive it as useful, feel capable of using it, hold positive attitudes toward it, and experience social pressure to do so. The study surveyed 384 rural households and found these five factors—perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control—significantly predict willingness to switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources.
