Our findings confirm the presence of a NIMBY effect on renewables, with landscape considerations emerging as a key factor. However, targeted communication about climate benefits and local financial gains, as well as implementing smaller-scale projects, significantly reduces. As Europe accelerates its green transition through e-mobility, renewable energy and advanced communication technologies, the demand for critical raw materials (CRM) is set to rise sharply. The extraction of these materials often stirs. A proposed wind farm that could power thousands of homes is defeated by a town council over concerns about scenic views. Do NIMBY. NIMBY is characterized by a group of residents who do not support the development projects proposed by the government of their cities, when they are close to their homes. What Is “NIMBY” and How Does It Impact the Deployment of Renewable Energy Infrastructure? NIMBY stands for "Not In My Back Yard," a phenomenon where residents support.
