It also had a bigger impact in the poorest counties. The Chinese government aims to install more than 10 GW of PV capacity under its solar energy for poverty alleviation program (SEPAP), especially in the poorest parts of eastern China, to benefit more than 2 million people by the end of this year.
Photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects (PPAPs) 1. Introduction With the increasing consumption of fossil energy and changes in the ecological environment, it is of increasing significance to meeting the energy demands required for industrial and economic development with clean and efficient power generation .
Solar PV and poverty alleviation Solar energy is considered to be one of the most sustainable and renewable sources of energy. Some scholars have made preliminary explorations on the application of solar PV for poverty reduction in the rest of the world.
China’s photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects (PPAPs) aim to help alleviate poverty by using the new energy power generation. In recent years, the PPAPs have flourished with the strong support of the Chinese government, becoming an integral strategy for the support of rural industries.
The solar energy for poverty alleviation programme (SEPAP), which is positioned as an integral component of China’s political campaign to eradicate poverty by 2020, aims to add over 10 GW capacity and benefit more than 2 million households from around 35,000 villages across the country by 2020.
The impact of photovoltaic poverty alleviation policy (PPAP) on household energy poverty is empirically investigated. The panel data of a tracking survey from 2010 to 2018 is used, and the high-dimensional fixed effect model is employed. PPAP contributed positively to alleviating household energy poverty.
