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
appliances in households. They found that the use of solar rooftop energy in households according to the case study in Columbia could save costs on the electricity bill and reduce pollution. Similarly, Kim et al. undertook research on an integrated adoption model of solar energy technologies
The global installed solar capacity over the past ten years and the contributions of the top fourteen countries are depicted in Table 1, Table 2 (IRENA, 2023). Table 1 shows a tremendous increase of approximately 22% in solar energy installed capacity between 2021 and 2022. While China, the US, and Japan are the top three installers, China''s relative contribution

As in most developing countries, biomass fuels (such as straw and fuel wood) have been the main source of heat for rural households in China , , and long-term exposure to smoke from cooking using biomass fuels kills up to 3.8 million people worldwide each year spite the spread of rural electrification, as of 2019, approximately 500 million people in
Of all households installed domestic water heating in China in 2021, only 4% use solar energy (i.e., the installation ratio of SWHs is 4%), while 58.1% use electricity, 32.6% use natural gas and 5.4% use air energy. 3 As a result, a satisfactory answer to this question is not only useful for policymakers, but also can be employed by the investors who are interested at

For residential users with limited solar panel area, there are two options to achieve economic use of solar energy. One is to install both PV and solar water heater (SWH) systems, called PV-SWH
Moreover, subsidies for household PV systems in China often include various policy support programs, such as capital investment subsidies provided at the time of installation, and production subsidies, including PV generation subsidies and feed-in tariffs, which are paid to consumers for generating solar electricity in the future (Murray et al., 2014; Jia et al., 2020). In

While in the blueprint drawn by China Renewable Energy Outlook , more detailed action plans were made towards the below 2℃ climate target, for which the installation of solar PV should increase at an average rate of 70–85 GW/yr during this period. Besides predictions on the scale of development, many scholars looked deeper into the more efficient
Highly carbonized energy use in ecologically fragile areas of Northwest China seriously endangers the health of residents and the ecological environment. However, poor energy affordability remains a major obstacle to
The levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for DPV systems under the full investment model is 0.17, 0.20, 0.26, and 0.31 Yuan/kWh at 1800, 1500, 1200, and 1000 equivalent utilization hours, respectively 52 .
China''s social system influences household solar adop-tion, intertwining inequality and injustice with lower-level government bureaucracy behaviors. The background of Chi-nese households

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.
China's social system influences household solar adoption, intertwining inequality and injustice with lower-level government bureaucracy behaviors. The background of Chinese households adopting solar energy is unique and rarely discussed in previous studies.
China subsidized distributed PV from 2013 until canceling subsidies in 2022 (Fig. 1). Under the policies, PV stations commissioned in different years received varying subsidy rates, fixed for 20 years. Trends in government subsidies for photovoltaic power generation.
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 adoption modes: welfare distribution, collective leasing, and household autonomy.
To promote distributed PV, China's National Energy Administration launched a “county-level promotion” strategy in 2021. This strategy sets a target for at least 20% of rural households in 676 pilot counties and districts to adopt rooftop solar panels. The concept of “energy justice” originates from John Rawls' theory of justice.
The opportunity for rural families to adopt solar energy relates not just to their own housing, economic status, social capital, and information capacity.
