Community-based energy revolution: An evaluation of China?s photovoltaic poverty alleviation Program?s economic and social benefits*

Han Xiao et al.

Summary: Using a unique micro dataset from 2014-2021, we analyze the China's Photovoltaic Poverty Alleviation (PVPA) program and find that it effectively reduces poverty by increasing household income, reducing inequality within villages, and promoting off-farm labor supply. The program has a greater impact on households with high dependency ratios and in villages with well-educated officials. The benefit-cost ratio of the community-based PVPA stations is greater than one, indicating its cost-effectiveness.

Impacts of solar photovoltaic projects on sustainable livelihoods: Evidence from rural China

Jing Liu et al.

Summary: Solar photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects (PPAPs) in China have achieved significant results since 2013, but their contribution to sustainable livelihoods and the underlying mechanism are still unclear. This study explores the poverty reduction mechanism of China's PPAPs from the perspective of sustainable livelihood of rural low-income families. Results show that PPAPs are most effective in promoting rural livelihood diversification and have significant effects on livelihood assets, endogenous impetus, and livelihood strategies. The effectiveness of PPAPs in reducing poverty and improving quality of life varies depending on factors such as family type, energy saving habits, education, age, PV knowledge, and project cognition.

Rural photovoltaic projects substantially prompt household energy transition: Evidence from China

Yuan Liu et al.

Summary: The photovoltaic poverty alleviation project (PPAP) in China, announced in 2014, has been found to have a positive impact on rural household clean energy transition, increasing the probability of transition by 3.4%. The project achieves this by raising rural household income and reducing migrant workers, thus improving local employment. Providing public welfare jobs and direct PV subsidies are identified as the most effective ways to promote clean energy transition for rural households.
