Strategy for renewable energy development in rural areas of Beijing

摘要

Beijing has long attached great importance to the development of renewable energy in its rural areas. On the basis of an analysis of resources, history, and status, this study presents a strategy for developing renewable energy in rural Beijing. Namely, for Beijing to become a high-level demonstration zone for renewable energy use, it must grasp two key development links (renewable energy and energy saving), focus on three strategic emphases (solar energy heat utilization, biomass gas, and energy-saving housing renovation), and enforce six construction elements (e.g., product research and development, technology upgrades, demonstration zones, and service systems). We also introduce concrete measures for promoting the development of rural renewable energy in Beijing in terms of funds, markets, policies, technologies, and services.
