Examining energy inequality under the rapid residential energy transition in China through household surveys

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: Since 2013, China has made remarkable progress in transitioning from traditional solid fuels to clean energy. However, this transition has disproportionately affected poor households, leading to concerns about the increasing energy burden. Although there has been a decrease in energy cost inequality, there is a growing disparity in energy burden between rural and urban households.

Multinational prediction of household and personal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the PURE cohort study

Matthew Shupler et al.

Summary: A multinational measurement campaign was conducted to develop household and personal PM2.5 exposure models, which can be used to quantify levels of household air pollution (HAP). The models found that primary cooking fuel type, heating fuel type, country, and season were highly predictive of PM2.5 concentrations.

Indoor sources strongly contribute to exposure of Chinese urban residents to PM2.5 and NO2

Ying Hu et al.

Summary: Ambient PM2.5 and NO2 pollution in China contribute to a significant health burden and indoor smoking and cooking are major sources of PM2.5 and NO2 pollution. Indoor sources contribute strongly to total PM2.5 and NO2 exposure in urban China and are comparable to outdoor sources.

Deaths Attributable to Indoor PM2.5 in Urban China When Outdoor Air Meets 2021 WHO Air Quality Guidelines

Ying Hu et al.

Summary: This study aims to estimate the mortality and economic losses attributable to indoor PM2.5 in urban areas in China. The results showed that indoor sources remain the main cause of deaths and economic losses, even when outdoor PM2.5 concentrations are reduced to 5 μg/m3.

Reduced inequality in ambient and household PM2.5 exposure in China

Zhihan Luo et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of considering both indoor and outdoor exposure in assessing air pollution inequality. It reveals that low-income groups are exposed to lower ambient PM2.5, but higher indoor PM2.5 due to residential emissions. The transition to clean household energy sources has significantly improved indoor air quality and reduced overall PM2.5 exposure, benefiting low-income groups. The study also shows a decreasing trend in PM2.5 exposure inequality over time.

Individual and population level protection from particulate matter exposure by wearing facemasks

Huizhong Shen et al.

Summary: The popularity of facemasks has increased in northern China due to severe air pollution. While wearing facemasks can reduce exposure to particulate matter, the protection is limited as people spend most of their time indoors. Installing indoor air purifiers is a more effective strategy for long-term protection against particulate matter exposure.

Synergistic Health Benefits of Household Stove Upgrading and Energy Switching in Rural China

Wenjun Meng et al.

Summary: The transition from solid fuels to electricity and natural gas in rural residential areas in China has led to significant health benefits. Government intervention, technological progress, and socioeconomic development have facilitated the upgrading of domestic stoves to cleaner and more energy-efficient models, resulting in reductions in PM2.5 emissions, premature deaths, and population exposure. The interaction of stove upgrading and energy switching further contributes to reducing premature deaths.

Examining the attitude-behavior gap in residential energy use: Empirical evidence from a large-scale survey in Beijing, China

Yan Zhang et al.

Summary: The study on residential buildings in Beijing reveals inconsistencies between energy-related attitudes and behaviors among occupants, highlighting the need for more comprehensive and flexible energy policy strategies. Factors such as perceived building thermal insulation performance and past experiences of behavior change play significant roles in influencing attitudes and behaviors, emphasizing the effectiveness and importance of building thermal retrofits and targeted awareness campaigns. There is also a potential self-reinforcing feedback loop between attitudes and behaviors, showcasing the substantial impact of social interactions and peer influence on behavioral change.

Correlation between PM2.5 pollution and its public concern in China: Evidence from Baidu Index

Wenli Li et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the correlation between haze and public concern, finding that public concern influences government decision-making and most observation keywords show a strong positive correlation with PM2.5 concentration. Additionally, the public is more concerned about real-time PM2.5 index than pollution prevention.

Tracking Air Pollution in China: Near Real-Time PM2.5 Retrievals from Multisource Data Fusion

Guannan Geng et al.

Summary: The study introduces a near real-time air pollutant database named Tracking Air Pollution in China (TAP), which combines ground observations, satellite AOD, and other data sources to provide daily 10 km resolution PM2.5 data. The database utilizes a two-stage machine learning model to estimate PM2.5 concentrations, improving performance at high pollution levels and filling gaps in AOD data. The availability of daily PM2.5 data for tracking changes over time and long-term records since 2000 will support policy assessments and health impact studies.

Health benefits and cost of using air purifiers to reduce exposure to ambient fine particulate pollution in China

Yumeng Liu et al.

Summary: The study shows that maintaining indoor PM2.5 concentrations at around 25 µg/m³ in mainland China using air purifiers can effectively reduce PM2.5-related deaths and have a positive net monetary benefit in most cities, making it a cost-effective intervention strategy.

Drivers of PM2.5 air pollution deaths in China 2002-2017

Guannan Geng et al.

Summary: The study found that emission controls avoided approximately 870,000 deaths in China between 2002 and 2017, but further improvements in air quality require energy-climate policies and changes in economic structure. Analysis showed that end-of-pipe control policies significantly reduced PM2.5-related deaths in China, with mandated emission control technologies avoiding nearly three-quarters of the deaths that would have occurred due to increased economic activity.
