We analyze residents' intentions to install photovoltaic (PV) systems in China. The adoption of residential PV is influenced by the government's subsidy policy. Property rights for buildings and bungalows also affect PV systems' installation. China's residential PV installation policies should increase users' trust.
This paper examines inequality in household adoption of rooftop solar photovoltaics in rural China through a qualitative study of three villages. The Chinese government promotes distributed solar to drive low-carbon development. However, community management and China’s institutional system influence unequal access.
Initially, we acquired electricity production and consumption data encompassing 3620 Chinese households with PV systems from 2014 to 2019, along with recorded technical indicators of the PV systems and installation locations. Subsequently, we conducted a dynamic field survey to explore potential explanations for the empirical findings.
Since 2018, households that choose to adopt solar panels receive a subsidy of only 0.37 RMB/kWh for each kilowatt-hour of PV power generated. The electricity price for residents in Tianjin is 0.49 RMB/kWh. The reduced subsidy of 0.05 RMB/kWh accounts for nearly 10% of the electricity price, indicating a substantial reduction in the subsidy.
In particular, the household photovoltaic industry has witnessed a significant increase in the production capacity of photovoltaic electricity in China, driven by PV generation subsidies (Lu et al., 2019).
This study has several limitations. First, it only uses data from Hebei, Shandong, and Henan provinces in China. Although the penetration rate of residential PV is the highest in these three provinces, the technical and economic benefits of installing residential PV in these three provinces are also the highest .
