TL;DR: It is found that dramatic improvements in air quality in Beijing would benefit substantially from reductions in residential emissions from regional controls in Tianjin and Hebei, indicating the value of policies at the regional level.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the relative importance of the key factors accounting for the unsatisfactory performance of Chinese wind farms and provide policy recommendations to limit the wind power output in China.

TL;DR: PV system performance in northern and eastern China will benefit from improvements in air quality and will facilitate that improvement by providing emission-free electricity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the air quality, health and climate co-benefits of various end-use electrification scenarios for the vehicle and residential sectors relative to a non-electrified coal-intensive business-as-usual scenario (BAU), and find that coal intensive electrification does not reduce carbon emissions, but can bring significant air quality and health benefits (41,000-57,000 avoided deaths in China annually).

TL;DR: It is found that allocating currently available SNG to the residential sector provides the largest air quality and health benefits and smallest climate penalties compared with allocation to the power or industrial sectors.
