Analysis on the environmental effect of renewable energy consumption by rural residents in daily life in China-from the perspectives of carbon emissions

Yan Chen, Zhu Yanli · 2011 · Energy Procedia

Summary. This paper analyzes carbon emissions from rural residents' energy consumption in China between 1998 and 2007, focusing on renewable energy use in daily life. The research finds that traditional biomass energy sources—straw, firewood, and similar materials—generate the largest share of carbon emissions in rural energy consumption. The authors provide policy recommendations based on these environmental findings.
