Abstract:
Stakeholder engagement has been acknowledged as being a vital approach in
delivering successful project outcomes. However, there is a limitation of
studies on how the stakeholder engagement can indicate the successful
implementation of renewable energy projects. The purpose of this study is
to fill the gap by investigating the influence of stakeholder engagement
indicators towards renewable energy project success. This study suggests
second-order model by extending stakeholder engagement indicators as
hierarchical and integrating ten associated components. Data was collected
through survey questionnaires applied to the Renewable Energy Power
Providers (REPPs) in Malaysia, using stratified random sampling. SPSS
ver.23 and Smart PLS 3.0 software was applied to test measurement and
structural models of this study. The findings revealed that stakeholder
relations, stakeholders’ communication, stakeholders’
learning and stakeholder integration were positively significant towards
the renewable energy project success. It is apparent that this study
allows contribution to the body of knowledge of project management and
offers some important insights into limited literature on stakeholder
engagement.This study also sheds light on the key stakeholders’
groups in developing successful renewable energy projects.
