Natural Advantages for PV Poverty Alleviation in China

82 million people living under poverty line, accounting for 13% of rural population (mainly in the Western China)

Most of poverty-stricken counties has rich light resource except Sichuan and Guizhou. They are suitable to carry out PV projects .

On October 11, 2014, National Energy Administration and the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office of China jointly issued the notice about the implementation of PV poverty alleviation work plan, the main content includes:

From 2014 to 2020, two modes of PV poverty alleviation project will be carried out:

1. Distributed PV poverty alleviation: increasing distributed photovoltaic installation in the poor districts and counties

2. PV agricultural poverty alleviation: make full use of barren hills and slopes in the less developed regions, agricultural greenhouse or facility, building photovoltaic power station

•Integrated poverty alleviation policy and distributed PV policy

•Supporting PV poverty alleviation with a variety of ways, such as government subsidies, farmers investment, bank preferential treatment, renewable energy fund, grid service support, etc.

•Social capital may also be introduced to develop a variety of business models.

The first batch of pilot projects will be carried out in the 30 counties of the 6 provinces: Ningxia, Anhui, Shanxi, Hebei, Gansu and Qinghai. Those motivated enterprises will be chosen to participate in the pilot project. PV poverty alleviation work plan and implementation plan should be proposed at a provincial scale.

FIT of China PV Power Station unit: RMB/KWh （ VAT inclusive）

(1) Rooftop Household PV Power Station

Suitable for single-family house in rural area

Factors to be considered in installation of PV power station:

Long-term planning buildingroof bearing (> 15 kg/sqm)building head (toward the south is the best)floor space (approximately 30 sqm, 3KW power plant could be installed)unscreenedNet meteringConvenient cleaning maintenance

2. Main Path of PV Poverty Alleviation for China’s Private Sector Participation

(2) Small-scale Distributed PV Power Station

A village will take the collective ownership of the profits that a 100 KW of small-scale distributed PV power station produced. Factors will be considerd:

available collective land or rooftopconvenient access to the gridcleaning PV power station and management of power plant assetsvillage collective control of revenue generated

Suitable for vast and sparsely populated area, such as Ningxia, Gansu, Qinghai, and other Northwest regions

2. Main Path of PV Poverty Alleviation for China’s Private Sector Participation

(3) Agriculture + PV Integration Project The following factors will be mainly considered:

adaptability to local agricultural infrastructuretypes of commercial crops (organic vegetables, edible fungus, herbs)return on primary investmentplant production and processingcooperation between agricultural companies and PV system operators

Installing PV modules above its steel framework, the traditional greenhouse becomes a system of  PV power generation, smart temperature control, and high efficient plant growing technology utilization.It provides energy support for irritation and heating problem in winter, and it meets the lighting requirements of crops . It is suitable for Middle and Eastern China that lack of land.

China New Energy Chamber of Commerce

Initiated by China new energy sectors, China New Energy Chamber of Commerce (CNECC) was established in January 2006 as a not-for-profit industrial organization. Approved by the State Council and registered in Ministry of Civil Affairs, CNECC has more than 1,000 members covering the whole spectrum of technologies and renewable energy applications solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, hydro, energy storage, distributed energy, energy saving and efficiency. etc. The core members of CNECC includes Hanergy Holding Group, Solareast Corporation, Hi-Tech Wealth,  Dongyue Federation, Trina Solar, Tongwei Group, SunCan, Rayspower, Xi’an LONGi Silicion, Zhejiang Jinggong Technology, Yingli Group, etc.  

3. Case Studies of CNECC PV Poverty Alleviation

(1) 100 KW PV poverty alleviation projects in a Linfen, Shanxi Province by Hanergy Holding Group, the chairman unit of CNECC

Annual electricity output: 130-150 thousand KWh ， which meets the electricity needs of 200 households in the village.

(2) Malanqixin school: a 40MW thin-film project by Hanergy Holding Group, finished by May 29th, 2015.

It is estimated that the project has a daily generating output of 160KWh, and annual elctricity output of 60,000KWh.

(4) The first PV power generation project for poverty alleviation in Guizhou Province, which is designed and constructed by CSUN

It supports 102 households with 325 persons. 77 households distributed PV generating system is built with 3 KW capacity for each system.

annual output of 4,500 KWh for each system. If each household’s electricity consumption is 4 KWh annually, each household could increase  annual income by 3,700 RMB.
