Residential heating emissions (can) exceed paddy-residue burning emissions in rural northwest India

Harshita Pawar et al.

Summary: This study reports the particulate matter concentration in Nadampur village, Sangrur district, using low-cost PM sensors, and finds that burning of paddy residue and residential heating emissions are the main contributors to poor air quality. The impact of paddy residue burning on air quality is higher than harvesting activities but lower than residential heating emissions. Heating-related emissions have a longer-lasting impact on air quality.

Development of energy balance table for rural and urban households and evaluation of energy consumption in Indian states

Satish Kumar Yawale et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the historical characteristics of energy transition and consumption patterns in rural and urban households in India, revealing faster energy transition in higher income households and higher consumption of LPG and electricity in urban high-income households compared to low-income households. Key drivers of energy demand include per-capita income and urbanization.

The hedonic treadmill: Electricity access in India has increased, but so have expectations

Michael Aklin et al.

Summary: The survey shows significant improvements in electricity access and service quality in rural Indian households over the past few years, but about one-fifth of the population remains unsatisfied with their electricity access. People's satisfaction levels are more sensitive to the quality of supply, which may be related to evolving expectations of electricity services.

Health and economic impact of air pollution in the states of India: the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019

Anamika Pandey et al.

Summary: The study estimated the impact of air pollution on human health and the economy in India. In 2019, air pollution led to 1.67 million deaths and an economic loss of $36.8 billion, accounting for 1.36% of India's GDP. The economic impact varied significantly among states, with low per-capita GDP states like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar experiencing the highest losses.
