Photovoltaic poverty alleviation project (PPAP) is one of the "Ten Targeted Poverty Alleviation Strategies" in China announced in 2014. Although it has been confirmed to play a prominent role in poverty alleviation for rural households, its impact on household clean energy choice behaviors has yet to be discovered. Our study analyzes the impact of this
Many studies have been carried out in the field of photovoltaic power generation. Agarwal et al. (2023) and Mukisa et al. (2021) have verified the feasibility of installing solar photovoltaic systems in buildings through mathematical modelling, providing a new solution for low-energy-efficient buildings. PV is extensively used, Liu et al. (2022a) proposed that an
The use of solar panels can address the power dimension of local residents'' energy poverty and lower the threshold for farmers to The construction of household PV panels encourages farmers to enjoy modern energy at a lower price, thereby reducing their energy consumption as a percentage of revenue and improving their household energy
Distributed solar PV contributes one third to total solar power generation in China, but household solar PV (HSPV) currently accounts for only 22% in the distributed solar market.
According to the International Energy Agency, there are some circumstances where solar photovoltaic (PV) is now the cheapest electricity source in history. 4 This is because the price of solar has fallen sharply

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. We identify three community-level
However, that doesn''t mean solar PV doesn''t pay. For this case study, we will be joined by Irish Farmers Journal beef editor Adam Woods, and tillage editor Siobhán Walsh, to consider the economics of solar PV on this

Mossie Zeru & Diriba Guta (2020) examine factors influencing household adoption of solar home system in Baso Liben District; Amhara Regional State of Ethiopia.
Solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal systems, i.e., the technology used to convert solar energy into electricity or heat, are gaining increased attention among farmers. For farmers, it is not only an opportunity to reduce household expenses, but above all a chance to reduce the cost of agricultural production.
Solar PV is now generating enough electricity to supply close to 144,650 homes annually, displacing 202,127 tonnes of carbon. The report outlines that in 2022 and 2023,
The promotion of solar photovoltaics in rural areas is of great importance in rural revitalization and the achievement of double carbon goals in China, but the adoption rate is

After completing the pilot projects in 471 counties [11], China''s National Energy Administration (CNEA) has issued 2 batches of photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects (PV-PAPs) so far, with a total of 12,650 power stations and an installed capacity of 5.86 GW, in an effort to help 18,415 poor villages and 1,012,524 poor households [12, 13]. The property right
In recent years, research on the intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technology has yielded rich results. However, controversy still exists regarding the key antecedents of households'' intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technologies. To clarify the critical factors influencing the intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technology and potential moderating

Findings reveal a positive correlation between solar energy adoption and increased crop farmer income. PSM analysis validates this, emphasizing the need for
Because solar farms generate near zero-carbon electricity, they help address climate change. This means they are helping to improve the UK''s food security. Solar cuts costs, which helps

SolarPower Europe''s report highlights that agrisolar projects can offer dual land use, combining energy production with agriculture, maximising land efficiency. In Spain,
Distributed solar PV contributes one third to total solar power generation in China, but household solar PV (HSPV) currently accounts for only 22% in the distributed solar market. Although researchers have investigated the huge power generation potential of the rooftop system by various estimation techniques and case studies, few has looked deeper into

Cognition process and influencing factors of rural residents'' adoption willingness for solar PV poverty alleviation projects: Evidence from a mixed
Household solar PV (HSPV) has attracted wide attention in rural areas with abundant solar energy resources, cheap land, and clear property rights of houses. With the rural energy system transition, future energy demand will be more driven by electricity, such as electric heating, cooling, and electric transportation, and there is a rising electricity demand [1].

How much funding is available? Grants range from £15,000 to £100,000. The £10,000 minimum funding is equivalent to 25% of a £60,000 system (roughly a 40kW array with some battery storage).
Solar photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects (PPAPs) have flourished with great achievements in China since 2013. However, the degree to which these PPAPs contribute to the sustainable livelihoods and the underlying mechanism remain unclear. By using the partial least squares-structural equation modeling and multi-group comparative analysis, this study has
The solar PV project will involve a greenfield investment of Rs 5,000 crore and span across 192 locations in 10 districts of the state. This project aligns with the Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana 2.0 (MSKVY 2.0), also known as ''Mission 2025'', aimed at transforming the agricultural energy supply with a 30 percent feeder solarisation target by 2025.
In contrast, the barriers to adopting solar PV include uncertainty about household electricity savings [18], lack and misunderstanding of solar PV technology [68,44], trust in the contractors [2
To consolidate and develop these achievements, in 2014, the State Council proposed the Work Plan on the Implementation of the Photovoltaic Poverty Alleviation Project (PPAP), which refers to a method of industrial poverty alleviation in which photovoltaic (PV) power stations are constructed in impoverished areas, the collective economy of poor villages is
The results indicate that: (1) off-farm employment is an important factor influencing household energy choice by reducing the probability of using traditional fossil fuels and increasing the
Growing numbers of farmers are installing solar panels to help cut their electricity bills.
In the view of the whole life cycle of sustainable livelihoods, this paper probes into the internal logic by which rural solar PV projects impact households' livelihood and reveals the heterogeneity in the poverty reduction path of PPAPs for the families with different characteristics and different cognitive dimensions.
Solar energy projects have encroached on farmland across the Northern Hemisphere ( 3 ). In 2017 alone, China deployed photovoltaic panels on about 100 km 2 of farmlands in the North China Plain ( 3 ), one of China’s most important agricultural regions.
However, solar energy investors and developers continue to occupy farmland illegally ( 10 ). Local authorities provide inadequate enforcement, allowing development to proceed at the expense of agriculture. Mitigating solar energy’s land competition will require technological innovation and more sustainable deployment strategies.
The energy crisis enveloping the country is a problem for farming and agricultural businesses as well as domestic consumers. British businesses could see their bills increase by 500% in 2022. [vii] This could be a catastrophe for farmers, who are already facing major economic uncertainty. [viii] Solar farms can address this problem in two key ways.
Solar cuts costs, which helps keep UK farmers in business. Solar provides some of the cheapest electricity in history. Without solar, energy prices would be even higher. This is important, because costs are increasing for agricultural businesses, just like everyone else.
As expected, livelihood capital and livelihood strategies act as part mediators between PPAPs and livelihood outcomes, accounting for 34.8 % and 52.4 % of the total effect, respectively. It can be further argued that the impact of solar PV projects on sustainable livelihoods has multiple indirect effects simultaneously.
