“…Based on the length of development and application of biogas technology around the world, this technology is well established and proven to produce non-fuel energy that is also environmentally friendly. For the community and businesses, especially micro and small businesses, biogas production is very profitable (Ahmad & Jabeen, 2023;Fekete et al, 2021).…”

The livestock sector has significant potential to contribute to methane emissions, which are the second largest after CO2, accounting for 13% of total emissions. One solution to control methane emissions is the use of biogas reactors. This study aims to assess the financial aspects of biogas production from livestock waste to meet household energy needs and to determine its financial feasibility. The research employs a qualitative approach that emphasizes flexibility, direct interaction with research subjects, and sensitive interpretation of data context. Data collection was conducted through a literature review by examining and analyzing literature related to the research topic. The literature study results indicate that constructing biogas reactors using cow dung has viable potential for development, especially as a replacement for LPG. However, replacing wood fuel depends highly on the local price of firewood. This study recommends that, for the development of biogas from cattle farm waste to replace firewood, interest subsidies or other assistance are needed to make the development feasible. Additionally, to encourage public interest in developing biogas reactors for cattle farm waste, financial incentives in the form of interest subsidies through program loans are necessary. Developing biogas reactors from cattle farm waste for household energy needs is economically viable, especially as a substitute for LPG, but requires additional support such as interest subsidies to replace firewood. Financial incentives are essential to attract public interest in developing these biogas reactors.

“…Wu et al [15] point out that risk, ambiguity, and time preferences significantly and positively influence the possibility of the adoption of rooftop photovoltaic technology in rural households, where time preference plays an essential favorable moderating role in the adoption of technology. Ahmad and Jabeen [16] highlight that there is a favorable impact to formal and informal credit borrowing which could increase the likelihood of biogas production technology adoption in agricultural households. Milovantseva [17] underlines that respondents with higher scores on greater engagement in pro-environmental behavior, general environmental beliefs, and positive attitudes toward recycling small electronics are more inclined to pay a premium to buy green cell phones.…”

China has made a commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060, and promoting a green lifestyle is an essential means to this end. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the asymmetric impact of green household technology on environmental sustainability in China. To that end, we have employed linear and non-linear auto-regressive distributed lag models to identify this complicated effect. The empirical results suggest that green household technology’s positive change exerts significant and negative effect on carbon emission in the short and long terms. And the impacts of green household technology’s negative change on carbon emission are significantly negative but smaller than its positive change in the long run, while insignificant in the short term. The estimates endorse the asymmetric impact of green household technology on carbon emissions both in the short and long term. This finding suggests that the improvement of green household technology can reduce carbon emissions, while a decline in it causes carbon emissions to rise, and technological retrogression plays a less influential role than its development. This research is a groundbreaking point in discussing the way towards environmental sustainability from a green household technology perspective, which considers the asymmetric effect and provides meaningful insights for China to achieve sustainable development.
