Are residential solar photovoltaic systems a good investment in China?

Residential solar photovoltaic (PV) installations have boomed in China over recent years. However, knowledge about the economic performance of residential PV investments is still limited. Therefore, this study attempts to make a complete economic assessment of residential PV systems at the county-level.

Are residential PV systems phasing out quickly in China?

This paper evaluated the economic performance of residential PV systems at the county-level under the background where the subsidies for solar PV generation are phasing out quickly in China, using scenario analysis and sensitivity analysis. It is found that residential PV investments have broken even all over China, even without any incentives.
