The reform of heat pricing and billing is a crucial part of overall heat reform, since it will commodity heat and thus create economic incentives to provide and use heat much more efficiently. Heat pricing and billing reform requires substantial changes in four interrelated areas: (i) transfer of heat payment responsibility from work units to consumers, a change from invisible to visible heat subsidies and an improved targeted subsidy system; (ii) determination of an economically efficient and equitable heat pricing system; (iii) promotion of heat metering, consumer control of heat consumption and consumption based billing; and (iv) improvement of the system of heat price administration. 2014-04-17T20:54:06Z 2014-04-17T20:54:06Z 2008-03 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2008/03/9758464/china-development-national-heat-pricing-billing-policy http://hdl.handle.net/10986/17908 English en_US Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP) formal report;no. 330/08 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: ESMAP Paper Publications & Research East Asia and Pacific China
