Support in photovoltaic projects

What is the purpose of photovoltaic project?

Second, as the fundamental purpose of the photovoltaic project is poverty alleviation, only when the poor households participate in the project, they have the possibility to alleviate their poverty status.

Why is photovoltaic construction important?

As a significant source of clean and renewable energy, solar energy helps mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. It avoids releasing greenhouse gases and other pollutants from fossil fuel combustion. Since 2009, the implementation of photovoltaic construction projects has promoted the rapid development of photovoltaics.

Which strategy should a photovoltaic enterprise choose?

Conversely, if the payoffs brought by photovoltaic projects are large enough, then PV enterprises will choose the strategy of “initiative support”. According to the assumptions presented in Section 2.3, poor households will always choose the strategy of “participation”, while the government does not need to supervise.

Do community-level support and household resources affect photovoltaic adoption?

We find that structural opportunities provided by communities and households’ own resource endowments have an additive effect on adoption. This highlights the need to consider both community-level support and household resources when evaluating photovoltaic adoption and energy justice.

Does community management influence household adoption of rooftop solar photovoltaics in rural China?

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.

How can PV contribute to energy security?

EPIA (European Photovoltaic Industry Association) and Greenpeace proved that PV can contribute to energy security in all countries without producing any harmful emissions in the operational phase. Moreover, PVPA projects would also contribute to absorbing the surplus manufacturing capacity of PV panels.
