Do residents want to install photovoltaic systems in China?
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.
Should China's residential PV installation policies increase users' trust?
China's residential PV installation policies should increase users' trust. Future policies should aim at decreasing the reliance on subsidy policy. Abstract Residential photovoltaics (PV) presents an effective means of achieving low-carbon development, owing to its installation flexibility and resource-saving properties.
How Chinese government aims to increase residential solar PV generation?
Chinese government has implemented a range of initiatives which aim at increasing the share of residential solar PV generation in the energy mix. Following policy incentives are listed from 2009 to 2018, and mainly pivoted on financial incentives.
How to promote sustainable adoption of residential Distributed photovoltaic generation in China?
An employment of incentive and punitive policies The development of residential solar photovoltaic has not achieved the desired target albeit with numerous incentive policies from Chinese government.
How does subsidy policy affect residential PV installation 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. Future policies should aim at decreasing the reliance on subsidy policy. Abstract
Does China have a potential for solar energy development?
Given the low-density layout and high-intensity development of China's residential blocks, China's residential communities have great potential for solar energy development. However, while BIPV and SWH technologies have been applied on a large scale, related theoretical studies are relatively insufficient.
