How much does a household earn from PV power generation?

For household-level PV power generation, the property right and income belong to households, so the income depends on the actual power generation. According to Guo (2017), the average income of each household is 4853 yuan/year. Only few households’ income is lower than the normal level due to roof repair or equipment failure.

Can a village adopt a solar power system?

Usually, only about 30% of households can adopt PV. To increase that percentage, the village would need to expand transformer capacity. The costs of that expansion get divided up and paid by later adopters. This raises their construction costs and creates an obstacle to adoption. It is another form of injustice.

How does abundance of solar resources affect household income?
