Transitioning to affordable clean energy sources for all presents opportunities for substantial well-being, health, and equity co-benefits  . Residential solid fuel use affects health and degrades indoor air quality for up to 3.1 billion people in low- and middle-income countries . Adherence to planned emission reductions from the Paris Agreement related to renewables could subsequently improve air quality and prevent 71,000-99,000 premature deaths annually by 2030 . This effect increases with a 2℃ pathway, with 0.7-1.5 million premature deaths avoided annually by 2050 . Co-benefits are also observed at national and regional levels. For instance, China could expect 55,000-69,000 averted deaths in 2030 if it transitioned to a half-decarbonised power supply for its residential and vehicle sectors .
