Residential electricity consumption has an important impact on China’s construction of a low-carbon society. However, at present, little of the literature analyzes the influencing factors of residents’ overall well-being from the perspective of micro investigation. Based on the micro mixed cross section data of the Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS), this paper empirically studies the impact of residential electricity consumption on residents’ subjective well-being. In addition, in the heterogeneity analysis, we found that an increase in residential electricity consumption will improve the overall well-being of females and people with low levels of education, but it has no significant effect on males and people with high levels of education. Moreover, the increase in residential electricity consumption has improved the life satisfaction of young people and middle-aged people. Meanwhile, the increase in residential electricity consumption has a significant, positive impact on both low-income and high-income households. Further analysis shows that no nonlinear relationship exists between the increase in residents’ power consumption and the improvement in life satisfaction. This paper enriches the research on residential energy and provides policy implications for the current Chinese government to save energy, reduce emissions, and improve residents’ quality of life.

Long-term collective saving schemes are widely adopted in many emerging economies to support residents’ housing consumption. This article evaluates the effect of the Housing Provident Fund (HPF), one of the most prominent housing policies in China, on income redistribution beyond its housing support role. Based on micro survey data, our results suggest that the current HPF policy design widens the income gap between HPF participants and nonparticipants and aggravates income inequality across the whole population; further simulation results suggest that expanding HPF coverage has an alleviating effect. However, in the event of housing purchases through HPF loans, lower income participants can leverage more benefits, and the floor-and-ceiling policy design decreases the marginal benefits for higher income participants, resulting in mitigated income inequality among HPF participants. One notable risk of the HPF’s widening of the income gap among participants is the unavailability of HPF loans for low-income participants. Our findings indicate that optimizing the HPF system might be a better option than its abolishment, from the perspective of its income redistribution function. We also provide some valuable recommendations for gradual future reform of the HPF.

This study measures the resilience and efficiency of the real estate industry in 35 large and medium-sized cities in China through the core variable method and the slacks-based measure of super-efficiency. The Haken model identifies the advantages of synergistic evolutionary states between systems and describes the synergistic evolution of resilience and efficiency in the real estate industry. The results show that (1) the evolution of the synergy in the real estate industry can be divided into three major cycles caused by the alternating effects of resilience and efficiency; (2) there are significant spatial and temporal differences in the evolution of the synergy between real estate resilience and efficiency, with the distribution of the synergy values being highly polarized; and (3) policy regulations tend to have short-term direct effects on the resilience of the real estate system, while for efficiency, the effects tend to be long-term and result in cross-cycle adjustments. This study enriches the literature on the robust and sustainable development of the real estate industry.
