Findings indicate that the purchasing intention can be influenced by lifestyles, demand motives, product features and information sources. In addition, the WTP premium of the consumers in whole samples is NT$915.17; the practical consumers - NT$710.81; the taste consumers - NT$1129.46 and the herding consumers - NT$906.25. The research findings are hoped to provide reference for the manufacturers in making strategies, to improve the market competitiveness and acceptability of the products and to achieve the goal of promoting green consumption and sustainable development.5enA study on willingness to pay of hydrogen energy and fuel cell technologiesjournal article
