However, the large-scale application of solar PV in poverty alleviation is affected by resource conditions, market environment, equipment cost, infrastructure, on-grid electricity
By the end of 2019, the task of PV poverty alleviation construction was fully completed. 15 The cumulative scale of the PV poverty alleviation power stations that were built was 26.36 million
Abstract. China implemented a solar photovoltaic (PV) poverty alleviation (PVPA) policy of building nearly 0.24 million PVPA power plants in 2014–2020 to fight poverty. However, our current knowledge of its effects,

To synergize climate mitigation with poverty alleviation, China has implemented photovoltaic poverty alleviation (PVPA) projects since 2014, with Anhui Province being among
Specifically, the government built small PV plants on the roofs of or the ground near the poor households. The poor households can obtain incomes by selling solar electricity
Researchers from the University of Zurich and Wuhan University have assessed how solar energy resources affect social and economic development to reduce poverty in China, using empirical data
At present, the per unit benchmark prices for a photovoltaic poverty alleviation power station (0.50 MW and below) and the per unit subsidy for household distributed photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects remain unchanged, conferring on these projects a great advantage.
In the next few years, the development of village-level poverty alleviation power stations will constitute the main direction for China's photovoltaic poverty alleviation programme. The village power stations overcome several bottlenecks that have long troubled photovoltaic projects and greatly reduce project development difficulties.
In total, the photovoltaic poverty alleviation projects were implemented in Hebei, Shanxi, Anhui, Gansu, Qinghai and Ningxia with a total amount of 6524.33 million kWh, and it was estimated that over 882,883 poor households will receive a stable income for 20 years.
Through this strategy, solar installation was estimated to be employed, which not only increases the electricity accesses by supplying affordable and reliable energy but also provides employment and income generation opportunities which can also contribute to poverty alleviation (He, 2017; Shan and Yang, 2019).
In the 1990s, the National Poverty Alleviation Programme was also conducted, involving the distribution of household photovoltaic systems to meet the needs in southwestern China (Dunford et al., 2013).
The advantages of this type poverty-relief power station are as follows: 1) It is convenient for the dynamic adjustment of poverty alleviation income and the operation and maintenance management of the power station; 2) no debt risk is involved; and 3) all income from the power generation is used in poverty reduction [70, 73].
