dc.description.abstractThis dissertation explores the potential for energy self-sufficiency of farms in Kosovo, positioning it within the context of sustainable energy practices. It begins with a systematic review of energy self-sufficiency worldwide, highlighting its role in achieving both environmental and economic sustainability. To assess local perspectives, surveys were conducted among internet-oriented participants and farmers. Results show a high level of awareness of renewable energy sources (RES), with 80–100% of respondents familiar with solar, wind, and hydro power. Farmers demonstrated stronger recognition of solar and wind energy, but comparatively less awareness of hydro. Importantly, most respondents (74.1% of farmers and 76.7% of internet-oriented population) expressed strong intentions to adopt RES in the future, particularly solar panels. Using a Best–Worst Scaling (BWS) approach, findings reveal that reduced energy costs are the strongest driver of adoption, followed by environmental concerns. Overall, economic calculations further suggest that utilizing straw biomass offers a cost-effective heating solution for agricultural needs.
