Empirical study on sustainable energy development goals:
In China, about 62.13% of the total territory is rural area. Compared to urban residents, the power users in rural areas are more dispersed and have relatively low electricity loads (MNR et al., 2021). Therefore, distributed PV energy has superior economic efficiency in the direction of community energy development (Kojonsaari and Palm, 2021).
