| Abstract | Renewable energy technologies (RET) have the potential to satisfy a significant share of the global energy supply, thus contributing to achieve climate mitigation goals. RET can also accelerate the recovery from the current economic crisis thanks to the many environmental, economic and societal benefits that such technologies incorporate. However, traditional accounting methods largely overlook the positive externalities generated by RET and therefore tend to favor conventional energy sources over capital-intensive, alternative energy technologies. Even worse, RET still suffer from a series of biased perceptions and preconceptions that favor status quo energy production models over innovative alternatives. This perspective can help explain why investments in RET, although appealing, still remain below expectations. In order to better understand this phenomenon, we focus on the investment decision making process of a sample of investors with the objective to identify the main determinants of their choices. We propose and test a conceptual model which investigates the role of institutional and behavioural factors in determining the share of renewable energy technologies in the investment portfolios, as well as the degree of technological diversification of these portfolios. Based on the results of our analysis, we derive and discuss implications for scholars, investors, and policy makers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
