Factors Influencing the Threats for Urban Energy Networks: The Inhabitants’ Point of View

Original language description

Our paper focuses on eliciting the factors that constitute threats and dangers for urban energy networks, information networks, and energy grids in the cities. Moreover, we attempt to determine how these threats are perceived by the inhabitants of those cities. Urban energy networks tend to play an increasing role in achieving energy efficiency and environmental sustainability in large urban centers. Even though they do not necessarily correspond to reality, public opinions can substantially influence the adoption of relevant technologies in populous urban locations. We use the public opinion representative survey data from the Czech Republic (a sample of 1023 respondents) in order to show how people perceive the dangers and threats for urban energy networks from such events as: Extensive and long-term power outage, service disruption of the Internet, mobile networks or telephone landlines, cyber-attacks, and the technological dependence of the state on multinational technological companies.
