Knowledge And Acceptability of the Public on Off-The-Grid Living at the City in Central Philippines

This research was about the Knowledge and Acceptability of the Public on Off-The-Grid Living at the City in Central Philippines. Living Off-the-Grid not only means disconnecting to the public electric and water utility system as a result of saving money, but it is a way of life, sustainability, resiliency, preparedness, and a behavior geared for survival. This study aimed to identify the level of knowledge and acceptability of the public about living Off-the-Grid within the city, as well as, the significant relationship between the level of knowledge and acceptability. The study anchored to different theories, self-sufficiency, sustainability, and disaster preparedness. This study was descriptive correlational research. A validated and reliable self-made survey questionnaire utilized to gather the needed data. A total of 400 respondents asked to answer the questionnaires. The result of this study shows that the level of knowledge of the public about Off-the-Grid living in terms of its benefits was knowledgeable, and the level of acceptability of living Off-the-Grid within the city was acceptable. Also, there was a significant relationship between the level of knowledge and the level of acceptability. Therefore, the higher the level of knowledge increases the level of acceptability.
