The 2014 Report is the fifth in a series of such reports. It is based on the fact that China, as the largest developing country, has been challenged with the more serious and more complicated energy poverty issue. This report reviews and summarizes the tools and methods of evaluating the global energy poverty, then establishes an indicator system of measuring and assessing China’s energy poverty from a temporal and spatial perspective. Besides, many critical issues like the relations between energy poverty and economic growth, climate change and energy accessibility, clean energy and energy poverty, solid fuels and health, policies and acts on energy poverty elimination, are also discussed in this Report.
