_Energy Poverty in China: Evaluation and Alleviation_ offers a
thorough, methodological approach to energy poverty, which is a major
obstacle in terms of the green or low-carbon transition of energy
systems in China. The authors follow the framework of measurement,
potential impact, and alleviation paths, supporting the design of
effective energy and environmental policies for a globalized nation,
especially considering the low-carbon transition of energy structures
and energy poverty alleviation in the context of carbon neutrality.
The book begins by providing an overview of energy poverty, explaining
the concept, summarizing the current situation globally and in China,
and introducing the approach of the authors. The second chapter looks
to build a comprehensive index system for the calculation of energy
poverty in China. This is followed by three chapters that apply a
range of methods to empirically assess the economic, environmental,
and social effects of energy poverty. Individual chapters then explore
specific alleviation paths, including digital economy, technological
innovation, low-carbon energy transition, inclusive finance, and
coal-to-gas/electricity policy.
This book is of interest to all those with an interest in energy
poverty, energy and environmental policy, energy economics, carbon
emission reduction, green growth, energy transition and renewable
energy, including researchers, scientists, advanced students,
engineers, R&D professionals, and policy makers or other experts at
governmental or non-governmental organizations.
