Driven by the global energy transition and China’s dual-carbon strategy, home distributed photovoltaic system are revitalizing underutilized resources and restructuring rural energy networks, helping households turn their rooftops into a source of income. This article explores how residential PV systems can leverage "small photovoltaics" to spur "large-scale development" from two perspectives: increasing household income and empowering rural development. 

From the Household Perspective: Monetizing Rooftop Resources, Upgrading Family Wealth

• Utilizing Idle Resources:

Installing residential PV systems transforms rural rooftops from simple shelter structures into dual-purpose assets that serve both energy and architectural functions. PV modules also provide insulation, lowering indoor temperatures by 3–5°C in summer and cutting air-conditioning costs. Moreover, professional mounting systems reinforce the roof’s structure and upgrade waterproofing layers, reducing aging and extending the rooftop’s lifespan.

• Significant Economic Returns:

Farmers can choose between two grid-connection modes—“self-consumption with surplus electricity fed into the grid” or “full grid feed-in”—to earn power generation revenue. Under the rooftop leasing model, farmers can earn rental income without upfront investment. Once the lease period ends, ownership of the power plant is transferred to the household, creating a “zero cost + long-term return” income stream.

From the Rural Perspective: Responding to National Policies, Enabling Energy Transition

• Outstanding Ecological Benefits:

• Stimulating the Rural Economy:

With low installation barriers, entire villages can utilize existing rooftops to build PV power plants that not only meet local electricity demands but also generate surplus energy for grid feed-in, increasing collective village income. The proceeds can be reinvested in infrastructure and public services. During typhoons or other extreme weather events, residential PV systems can also support temporary power supply needs.

Installing home solar systems provides both economic security for households and enhances rural energy self-sufficiency. In line with the “Sunlight for Thousands of Households” campaign, Huge Energy leverages over a decade of experience in PV power plant development to offer rural users a comprehensive “high-yield, fast, quality, and worry-free” solution:

High Yield: Optimized component layout through site assessment, combined with wind-resistant structures certified by CPP wind tunnel tests, significantly boosts power generation.

Fast Delivery: Digitally managed processes ensure grid connection and power generation within an average of 28 working days.

High Quality: Adhering to strict construction standards, support structures are TÜV and CE certified, ensuring safe and reliable power plant operation.

Worry-Free Service: With a focus on customer value, Huge Energy promises 24/7 online support and full lifecycle maintenance of the power plant.

Energy ensures that every inch of rooftop can become a “sunshine revenue plant” and every household a “carbon reduction pioneer.”
