Implication

Survey study reveals that functional and environmental values drive photovoltaic adoption in Polish households, highlighting key priorities for regional renewable energy promotion.

Key Points

Identify the core consumption values and behavioral factors that drive consumer decisions to adopt residential photovoltaic panel installations.
Administered a self-administered questionnaire to 250 Polish consumers assessing an extended green consumption values model across functional, social, emotional, conditional, epistemic, and environmental dimensions.
Evaluated the relationships between perceived consumption values and panel adoption behavior using structural equation modeling.
Structural equation modeling revealed that only functional value and environmental value significantly and positively influenced consumers' choice behavior toward photovoltaic panel installations.
An environmentally positive attitude—anchored in environmental concern, knowledge, and perceived personal responsibility—represented the strongest determinant of adoption.
