Residents’ “coal to electricity” is an important part of boosting air pollution prevention and achieving clean heating in winter. It is an important part of the rural energy revolution and a livelihood project to improve the living conditions of the people. Considering the economic development level of different regions and the type and characteristics of coal reforming，this paper selects two centralized，one heat storage and decentralized type，one air source heat pump distributed coal-to-electricity village and 543 villages for “coal-to-electricity” analysis of operational conditions. Based on the operational data，from the aspects of project implementation，implementation of subsidy policies，characteristics of electricity load，heating effect and affordability of residents，the implementation and operation of the “coal to electricity” project were investigated and analyzed. In the implementation of the quasi-“coal to electricity” process，it puts forward some countermeasures and suggestions to promote the “coal to electricity” clean heating.
