https://doi.org/10.31595/inf.v11i1.3388Keywords:
Collaborative Strategy, Economic Barriers, Green Energy Implementation, Multiactor, Social Barriers,Abstract
This study examines Multi-Stakeholder Collaborative Strategies to Overcome Social and Economic Barriers in Green Energy Implementation in North Konawe with a case-study-based qualitative approach, combining in-depth interviews, participatory observation, document review, stakeholder mapping, and process tracing to analyze synergies between the government, private sector, academia, NGOs, and local communities. The results show that cross-actor collaboration, through adaptive regulation, inclusive investment, technology transfer, and local economic empowerment, creates a green energy ecosystem that is sustainable, inclusive, and responsive to local needs. This research provides theoretical contributions in the form of integrative models of multi-stakeholder collaboration in the clean energy transition, as well as practical contributions with recommendations for participatory dialogue mechanisms, innovative financing strategies, and empowerment programs that strengthen local capacity and ensure equitable access to the socio-economic benefits of green energy.
