摘要
基于晋西南毋伯村“煤改气”项目的田野调查,本文探讨了天然气下乡后农民在能源使用上的代际分化图景及形成逻辑。研究发现,新生代农民是“煤改气”项目的主要支持者,老一代农民通常拒绝或被动地接入天然气,并且在对天然气的使用上具有“季候性”的特点;而在代际同住的家庭中,两代人则会相互尊重彼此的能源偏好。新老两代农民的能源选择差异是经济收入、技术能力、乡土认知三个维度共同驱动的结果。相比于新生代农民注重享受现代的生活方式,老一代农民的生活方式更多受到传统乡村社会结构的塑造。他们出于为子代发展和家庭绵续而省吃俭用的想法,拒绝使用成本相对较高的天然气。可见,乡村“煤改气”项目不宜被盲目地、孤立地推进,而须因地制宜,在一定时间内允许多种能源使用方式并存,以满足不同代际群体的生活习惯和用能需求。
Based on fieldwork in Wubo Village,southwestern Shanxi,focusing on the"coal-to-gas"project,this study explores the intergenerational differences in energy use among farmers and the underlying logic of these differences after the introduction of natural gas to rural areas.The research finds that the younger generation of farmers predominantly supports the"coal-to-gas"initiative,whereas the older generation typically either refuses or reluctantly adopts natural gas,often using it seasonally.In households where both generations co-reside,they tend to respect each other's energy preferences.The divergence in energy choices between the two generations is influenced by factors such as income,technological ability,and local knowledge.The younger generation tends to value modern lifestyles,while the older generation is more shaped by traditional rural social structures.The latter's reluctance to use the relatively expensive natural gas stems from a desire to save money for their children's future and family continuity.These findings provide valuable insights for the implementation of similar energy transition projects in rural areas.
