Abstract: 
The aim of this study is to investigate the relation between ecological sensitivity and renewable energy acceptance. A questionnaire known as the NEP scale was used to measure ecological sensitivity, by using a sample of 360 respondents from the area of Evia, Greece. Statistical analysis revealed the existence of a positive relationship between ecological sensitivity and willingness to pay more for renewable energy. Furthermore, a statistical significant relation was found between ecological sensitivity and citizens’ views concerning the contribution of renewable energy sources to environmental improvement.
