The Research of the Available and Utilization of Solar Energy in Rural Areas - The Example from the Loess Plateau Area

Abstract

The rural economy is underdeveloped in china, especially in the Loess Plateau, the land is barren and per capita income is not high, prominently they lack the energy. It had been vicious cycle between the biological energy consumption for basic survival and ecological deterioration of the environment. Therefore, it’s a breakthrough in using the new and local energy of exploitation and utilization for solving the shortage of rural energy. This article construct the availability of evaluation index system of Solar with surveying quantitative empirical analysis Anding district in Gansu province of loess plateau areas Northwest China.Conclusion is that the solar level is different in An-Ding district but it has great potential to be developed . The available amount is abundant but the Utilization is inadequate.Due to the poor taste of the local energy, to develop solar energy rational will improve the ecological, address poverty and narrow the economic gap in regions.
