The proposed project is located in ChaganHot Tourism and Economy Development Area, Baicheng City,
Jilin Province, People’s Republic of China. It will construct a wind farm with total capacity of 30MW,
and a 66kV substation. The project is designed to produce 50.635GWh of electricity per year from wind
energy with the proposed total installation capacity, replacing fossil fuel consumption, and thus reducing
GHG emissions. Economic growth, social benefits and environmental improvement will be achieved in
the region by conducting of the project. Furthermore, the proposed project plans to utilize domestic made
state-of-the-art wind turbines to promote Chinese wind turbine manufacturing industry by increasing its
market share and the employment opportunities.

ChaganHot
Wind resource in the region is good, with an average wind speed about 5.1m/s at a height of 10m and
6.6m/s at a height of 48m. The situation of the disastrous wind speed that is over 20m/s is rare according
to the data collected during the on-site wind resource assessment.
The capacity factor is estimated to be 20.29% based on extensive monitoring of the available local wind
resource. The proposed project is therefore expected to generate approximately 50.635GWh of electricity
per year that will be sold to the Jilin Provincial Power Grid, which is an integral part of the North East
China Power Grid,
A 66kV substation and a 2km transmission line will be set up at the site, which connect the proposed
project to the 220kV substation in Baicheng. By so-doing, the power produced in the wind farm can be
transmitted to the North East China Power Grid.

B.1. Title and reference of the approved baseline and monitoring methodology applied to the
project activity:
>>
The approved methodology applied in the proposed project activity is ACM0002 – “Consolidated
methodology for grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources”, Version 6. Wind source
that is utilized in the proposed project is included in the applicable conditions of ACM0002. For more
information regarding the methodology please refer to http://cdm.unfccc.int/metholdogies/approved.
Version 2 of Tool for the Demonstration and Assessment of Additionality is also applied in the proposed
project.
B.2 Justification of the choice of the methodology and why it is applicable to the project
activity:
>>
The approved consolidated methodology: ACM0002 is applied here to determine the of the proposed
project. The project activity is a newly installed electricity capacity from wind energy in the North East
China Power Grid. The grid can be clearly identified and information on its characteristics is available,
which is in line with the ACM0002 requirements. The proposed project meets all applicability conditions
of methodology ACM0002 which are listed as follows:
1) The proposed project will install a new electricity capacity from wind energy;
2) The proposed project does not involve switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy at the site;
3) The geographic and system boundaries of North East China Power Grid to which the proposed
project will be connected can be clearly identified and information on the characteristics of the gird is
available.
B.3. Description of the sources and gases included in the project boundary
>>
According to the methodology ACM0002, Version 6, a grid-connected wind power project like the
proposed project is required to consider only the CO2 emissions from fossil fuels fired power plants in
baseline scenario.
page 7
According to the methodology (ACM0002), a project electricity system is defined by the spatial extent of
the power plants that can be dispatched without significant transmission constraints. The proposed project
is within the boundary of the North East China Power Grid, which geographical range includes
Heilongjiang Province, Jilin Province and Liaoning Province2.
B.4. Description of how the baseline scenario is identified and description of the identified
baseline scenario:
>>
In absence of the proposed project, reasonable and credible alternatives that are in accordance with
current laws and regulations include:
1) The proposed project not taken as CDM project;
2) Construction of a fossil fuel power plant with equivalent amount of installed capacity or annual
electricity output;
3) Construction of a power plant using other source of renewable energy with equivalent amount of
installed capacity or equivalent amount of annual electricity output; and
4) Supply of equivalent annual power output by the Grid where the proposed project is connected.
Specific analysis on the four alternative scenarios in absence of the proposed project is as follows:
1) The development of a new wind energy project of the same capacity (30MW) under a fully
commercialized condition without CDM is very difficult in China. Without additional financial
support directly, significant barriers are expected for a new wind farm development that are presented
in details in Step 3 Barrier Analysis. Therefore, the Scenario 1) cannot be considered as an alternative.
2) Same installation capacity of a fossil fuel power plant as the proposed project (30MW) will not
happen, because coal-fired plants with a capacity of 135MW or less are prohibited from building in
large grid such as provincial girds3 according to current regulations in China. It’s known that
operational hour of a fossil fuel power plant is at least 2 times more than that of a wind power project
with the same capacity. Therefore, the alternative fossil fuel power plant with the equivalent power
output as the proposed project refers to a fossil fuel power plant of 15MW or less, which is not
possibly built either under China’s existing regulatory framework. Consequently, this is not a feasible
alternative scenario to replace the proposed project.
3) Besides wind energy, solar PV, geothermal, biomass and hydro are the possible grid-connected
renewable energy technologies that could be applied in the North East China Power Grid. Due to the
technology development status and the high cost for power generation, solar PV, geothermal and
biomass of the similar installed capacity as the proposed project are alternatives far from being
attractive investment in the grid in China. Only hydropower projects have the investment return rate
that can compete over that of wind power projects in China. For the proposed project, the site is a
piece of flat grassland with no exploitable resources for hydropower development. Despite the fact
that Jilin province has the most abundant hydropower resources in Northeast China, it’s left no more
exploitable resources for the development of any new hydropower plant with medium-large scale.
Moreover, although there is some potential for the development of small-scale hydropower projects,
2
The electricity import and output between Northeast China Power Grid and other girds (North China Power Grid)
is very insignificant and not necessary to be considered when calculating EF of grid.

issued by the General Office of the State Council, decree no. 2002-6

page 8
obvious hurdles still exist. As a matter of fact, existing hydropower plants in Jilin province at present
are mainly used for the purpose of peak load regulation and the grid security of the North East China
Power Grid. In conclusion, with limited usable hydropower resources in Northeast China, and with
higher amount of investment cost (not less than that of wind power) and less annual operating hours,
the economic return of a hydropower plant with similar capacity is less attractive than that of the
proposed project. Only 25.6MW new capacity from hydropower in Jilin Province has been installed
from 2001 to 20044. It is obvious that the development of hydropower plant similar with the proposed
project in the province will meet significant investment barrier and not feasible under fully
commercial condition at present. Hence the Scenario 3) is not feasible as an alternative scenario.
4) The installed capacity of North East China Power Grid keeps increasing for many years. In 2003, the
total installed capacity increased by 8.9% with new power plants installed as well as capacity
additions from existing power plants. Hence, the alternative 4) is a feasible alternative. As a result,
North East China Power Grid is selected as the baseline for the proposed project.
In conclusion, the only practical and feasible baseline scenario is the alternative 4).
B.5. Description of how the anthropogenic emissions of GHG by sources are reduced below
those that would have occurred in the absence of the registered CDM project activity (assessment
and demonstration of additionality): >>
The additionality of the proposed project is demonstrated and assessed by the approved Tool for the
Demonstration and Assessment of Additionality. Following steps include:
Step 0. Preliminary screening based on the starting date of the project activity
The crediting period of the proposed project will not start before the registration of the project activity.
Step 1. Identification of alternatives to the project activity consistent with current laws and
regulations
Define realistic and credible alternatives to the project activity(s) that can be (part of) the baseline
scenario through the following sub-steps:
In conclusion, as discussed in B4, the only practical and feasible baseline scenario is the alternative 4).

page 9
The B4 contains the confrontation of the alternatives with China’s applicable laws and regulations.
Alternative 1), 2) and 3) are excluded.
A further argument is that the project activity is consistent with the national policies for environmental
protection, energy conservation and sustainable development. However, there possesses no binding legal
and regulatory requirements for this type of projects yet. The adoption of China’s Renewable Energy Law
by the National People’s Congress on 28th February 2005 should be qualified as a Type E- law, and hence,
not be considered as the baseline scenario.
It could be concluded that the alternative 4) is in line with the existing Chinese laws and regulations.
(2) Comparison of IRR for the proposed project and the financial benchmark
In accordance with the benchmark analysis (Option III), the proposed project will not be considered as
financially attractive if its financial indicators (such as IRR) are lower than the benchmark rate.
Table 1 shows the fluctuating situation of IRR of the proposed project, with and without CDM revenues.
Without the CDM revenue, the IRR of total investment is lower than the benchmark rate 8%. Thus the
proposed project does not look financially attractive to the investors. However, with the CDM revenue,
PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1.
page 10
IRR of total investment is significantly improved and exceeds the benchmark rate. Therefore, the
proposed project with the CDM revenue can be considered as financially viable to the investors.
Table 1. Financial indicators of the Jilin Baicheng ChaganHot wind power project
IRR (Total investment, benchmark=8%)
Without CDM revenue 6.64%
With CDM revenue 8.56%
Four financial parameters including: total investment, tariff and annual O&M cost were identified as the
main variable factors for sensitive analysis of financial attractiveness. Their impacts on IRR of total
investment were analyzed in this step.
For detailed results of sensitive analysis of the three indicators, please see Table 2.
Parameters
Total investment
8.090% 7.700% 7.330% 6.980% 6.640% 6.310% 5.990% 5.690% 5.390%
O&M cost 6.760% 6.730% 6.700% 6.670% 6.640% 6.600% 6.570% 6.540% 6.510%
Tariff 5.350% 5.680% 6.000% 6.320% 6.640% 6.950% 7.260% 7.570% 7.870%
page 11
As shown in Table 2 and Figure 2, the IRR of total investment of the proposed project varies to different
extents, when the above three financial indicators fluctuated within the range from -10% to +10%. In
comparison, the impact of the tariff on IRR is most significant. When the tariff increases by 7.5%, the
IRR of total investment exceeds the benchmark. However, it is not possible for the initial tariff estimated
in FS to be raised, which can be proved by the approved tariff of similar projects nearby.: Taobei Fuyu
49.5 MW Wind Power Project is close to the proposed project, and was put into delivery in 2006 with an
approved tariff of 0.56yuan/KWh(after tax). The location and resource conditions of Taobei Fuyu Project
are similar to the proposed project. Besides , the tariff of the proposed project in the Feasibility Study was
0.59yuan/KWh(after tax), but now the intent tariff is 0.56 yuan/KWh(after tax), which represents clearly
that it is unlikely for the occurrence of upward trend of the tariff. Therefore, the tariff of the proposed
project is estimated not to be higher than 0.56yuan/KWh. That is, it is impossible for the tariff to rise by
5%.Next is the total investment. It’s displayed in the graphics that the IRR of total investment exceeds the
benchmark when the total investment decreases by 8%. As the cost of the proposed project is increased
due to the changes of geological conditions and price rising of raw materials during construction, the total
investment is not likely to be reduced. Among the four indicators, the impact of annual O&M cost on IRR
is least sensitive.
After above sensitive analysis, when financial indicators change within reasonable range, the proposed
project is not financially feasible without CDM support.
Sub-step 3a. Identify barriers that would prevent the implementation of type of the proposed project
activity:
PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1.
page 12
Establish that there are barriers that would prevent the implementation of the type of proposed project
activity from being carried out if the project activity was not registered as a CDM activity. Such barriers
may include, among others:
Investment barriers
The wind energy development in China is still hurdled by the high investment cost, which makes wind
energy a financially unattractive technology for power generation. The per kW investment cost of wind
energy is much higher than that of the fossil fuel power plants.
The wind resource is the most important parameter for determination of wind farm investment. Before the
development of the wind farm, an assessment of the local wind resource was conducted for over one year.
The result shows the wind resource in the proposed site is adequate but not very good.
When developing the Feasibility Study of the proposed project, the project developer started realizing
more clearly that the impact of the marginal wind resource on the project will result a marginal
investment return. The IRR of total investment is lower than the benchmark of 8%, which makes the
project unattractive in investment.
The proposed project enjoys neither preferential pricing policies nor preferential financing. The proposed
project has to be financed under a fully commercialised condition. However, it is difficult to attract
investment facing low investment return and technology risk resulted from marginal wind resource.
Tariff barriers
Regarding to the tariff issue for power production projects, a very well-known indicator, the average
inter-grid sales tariff, was 0.231 yuan/kWh in 20025, which is remarkably lower than the very necessary
tariff for wind power projects. This kind of situation inevitably raises risks when much higher tariff is
acquired by the wind power project, but neither the local grid nor the governmental bodies are willing to
absorb the additional cost. .
The first wind farm in Jilin province is the Jilin Tongyu 30.06MW wind farm that was put into delivery in
2000. Due to the favorable tariff policy at that time, Jilin Tongyu Project managed to obtain a tariff of
0.900 yuan/kWh (after tax). However, the tariff in Feasibility Study for the proposed Jilin Baicheng
ChaganHot Wind Power Project is 0.59 yuan/kWh (after tax), and the intent tariff is only 0.56yuan/kWh
(after tax). Contrastively, the wind resource of Jilin Baicheng ChaganHot Wind Power Project is much
lower than that of Jilin Tongyu Project. Therefore, the lower tariff obstructed the development of the
proposed project.
Technology barriers
In the technological aspect of a wind farm, the wind turbine takes the core technical know-how. From the
first wind farm developed, as a new technology, the key international players of wind turbine have
dominated the wind turbine market in China. Ten years ago, the Chinese wind turbine manufacturing
industry started to grow. However, the technology level of Chinese wind turbine still has a distance from
the advanced international technology. Moreover, there are still risks in the performance and liability of
domestic made wind turbines, which will impact directly on the electricity output of the wind farm, and
5

PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1.
page 13
thus the investment return of the proposed project. The proposed project will employ the domestic made
wind turbines- S48/750, which will leave the common technology risk to the project developer. That is
the technology barrier of the proposed project.
The proposed project is the first wind farm to be developed by the project developer. Lacking of previous
experience in the investment, development and operation for wind farms, the project developer will
inevitably face significant risks, especially the problem of short of experienced staffs on construction,
operation and maintenance. Therefore, trainings on required technology for the staffs will be needed
during implementation of the proposed project.
Sub-step 3 b. Show that the identified barriers would not prevent the implementation of at least one of
the alternatives (except the proposed project activity):
The four alternative scenarios of the proposed project were analyzed in the Sub-step 1a Only alternative 4
could be the alternative scenario. In this scenario, the power output from the grid is mainly from the coal
fuel power source. The coal-fired plant in China is a well- commercialized technology and the coal
resource in China is very rich as well. Therefore the investment barrier, technology barrier and tariff
barrier mentioned above of the proposed project will not be applicable to coal-fired plants.
Sub-step 4a. Analyze other activities similar to the proposed project activity:
Before 2003, wind power projects in China were undertaken under non-commercial conditions with the
supporting policies, such as the cost-plus power pricing, monopolistic power company “pilot-projects”,
domestic loan subsidies, bilateral soft loan financing and multilateral finance. This resulted in a series of
wind farms capacity less than 30MW, however, on which the sector still could not be commercialized.
Table 4 shows the wind farms developed and under development in Jilin province, where the proposed
project happens.

Tongyu wind farm was developed and was operational in 2000 with the support of high tariff. From 2000
to 2004, not a single wind power project was newly built in the province. In 2005, four new wind farms
started construction by different developers. The approved tariff of the four projects is the same, causing
similar problem on tariff. Despite of the tariff barrier, the four projects are still under development due to
the main reason that CDM plays a crucial role for the project developer to determine the project
investment and execution. Without CDM, new wind farms in Jilin province including the proposed
project are not likely to happen.
As stated above, it is concluded that the proposed project is not common practice, as it was undertaken
without the preferential tariff or preferential financing.
page 15
The project developer’s inexperience in wind power project development will cause risks on the
construction, operation and maintenance of the proposed project and hence investment return. The
proposed project will employ domestic made wind turbine that still exist technology barrier comparing
with international state-of-the-art technology. With the successful registration of the proposed project,
the CDM finance could provide additional revenue to support the maintenance of the wind turbines and
the operation of the project, and consequently generate more electricity and GHG emission reductions in
return.
Without the support from CDM, the proposed project will not be developed and generate GHG emission
reductions. Taking into account the additional barriers that the project has to face, including the tariff and
wind resource, the CDM can be regarded as a mechanism to ensure the success of the proposed project.
The proposed project is additional.
In summary, the CDM would have the following positive impacts on the project:
1. The CER revenue potential has been taken into consideration by project investors from an early
stage and was notably proposed in the Feasibility Study as a possible measure to improve the
financing of the proposed project. As the IRR of total investment is lower than the benchmark,
the project developer has signed CER Sales Agreement with the buyer before it decided to
develop the proposed project.
2. The CER revenue would provide extra finance to overcome the marginal tariff and additional cost
to be occurred during the implementation of the project and ensure the financing and investment
return of the project.
3. The CER revenue would provide extra support to reduce the technology risks resulting from the
inexperience of project developer in wind power industry.
4. The CER revenue will enable the project developer to carry out additional training activities for
staff and construction workers associated with the employment of the new technology. Moreover
the additional revenue will help ensure that the skills and knowledge gained by the project can be
transferred throughout China.
5. The CER revenue will ensure the ultimate success of the project that is currently still marginal
both in terms of the wind resource and the investment return.
page 16
Although Dispatch Data Analysis should be considered the first methodology choice as required in the
ACM0002, unavailability of detailed information in China, such as the dispatch data make method (c) not
feasible for the calculation in China.
In China, specific data from the grid or each power plant is treated as business confidential and thus not
publicly available. Therefore, the Simple adjusted OM (b) cannot be possibly used for the proposed
project either.
Without any nuclear source, the North East China Power Grid only possesses 5.83% of its total electricity
generation that come from renewable energy sources in 2004, 4.72% in 2003, 5.43% in 2002, 7.02% in
2001 and 5.89% in 20007. Hence, the low operating cost/must run sources is much less than 50% of the
total grid generation, which accords with the defined condition of method (a), but not method (d).
Consequently, Simple OM method is selected to calculate the Operating Margin emission factor of the
proposed project.
The Simple OM emission factor (EFOM,simple,y) is calculated as the generation-weighted average emissions
per electricity unit (t CO2e/MWh) of all generating sources serving in the system, excluding low-
operating cost and must-run power plants:
∑ F i , j , y ⋅ COEF i, j, y
EF = i, j
OM , simple ,y
∑ j
GEN j, y
Where:
• Fi,j,y the amount of fuel i consumed by relevant power sources j in year(s) y. The index j runs over all
power sources including imports, but excludes low operating costs and must-run power plants.
• COEFi,j,y the CO2 emission coefficient of fuel i, taking into account the carbon content of fuels used
by relevant power sources j and the percentage oxidation of the fuel in year(s) y;
• GENj,y the electricity delivered to the grid by source j in year y.
The CO2 emission coefficient is equal to the net calorific value of fuel i, multiplied by the oxidation factor
of the fuel and the CO2 emission factor per unit of energy of the fuel i.
NCV i is the net calorific value (TJ per mass or volume unit) of fuel i;
OXIDi is the oxidation factor of the fuel. IPCC default values are used.

by relevant power sources m and the percentage oxidation of the fuel in year(s) y;
• GENm,y the electricity delivered to the grid by source m in year y.
Both options have the same requirement on sample group m: either the five power plants built most
recently, or the power plants capacity additions in the electricity system that comprising 20% of the
system generation (in MWh) and that have been built most recently.
However, it is very difficult to obtain the data of the five power plants built most recently because these
data are considered as confidential information by the company itself and the Grid in China. Therefore, a
deviation approved by the EB is applied here in the calculation that is to calculate the new capacity
additions and the proportion of each technology of power generation. Then the weighing of capacity
additions of different technologies will be worked out. Finally the emission factor will be calculated by
employing the efficiency factor representing the best technology commercially available.

Impact on air
The air pollution from dust and waste gas existed mainly in the period of construction. Protective
measures to be adopted include stopping work on windy days and reducing the speed of vehicles. As the
period of construction is short, the impacts on air will be insignificant after conducting these mitigation
measures. During operation, there will be no bad gas emissions generated by the Project.
Electromagnetic impact
The operation of the wind farm will generate electromagnetic energy, however, it will be very little.
According to the survey to the local residents near the Project, no impact to local residents and electronic
equipments was detected. Furthermore, the site of the Project is far from the resident area. Therefore,
there is no significant electromagnetic impact to be generated.
Impacts on plant
The area permanently taken by the project will be 68,847m2, most of which are grassland. There is little
biomass and no rare plant in the location. As the lands will be replanted after completion of the project
construction, the impacts on grassland are insignificant.
Biological impact
Given the environment of the project location, there are very few animals at the site, and no protected
animal has been detected. Therefore, there is no significant impact by the Project to the local biology.
The Environment Impact Assessment was approved by Jilin Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau
in October 2005.

Annex 4
MONITORING PLAN
The monitoring plan of the proposed project is a guidance document that provides the set of procedures
for preparing key project indicators, tracking and monitoring the impacts of the proposed project. The
monitoring plan will be used throughout the defined crediting period for the project to determine and
provide documentation of GHG emission impacts from the proposed project. This monitoring plan fulfils
the requirement set out by the Kyoto Protocol that emission reductions projects under the CDM have real,
measurable and long-term benefits and that the reductions in emissions are additional to any that would
occur in the absence of the certified project activity
Operational manager of wind farm will collect the information and data required by the Monitoring Plan.
The collected information will be documented and sent to the CDM manager and responsible staffs of the
CWIC Baicheng Wind Power Development Co. Ltd. monthly. The CDM manager will in charge of the
implementation of the Monitoring Plan and report to the General Manager of the company. The General
Manager of the company will make the confirmations on monitoring, calculation data and reports.
3. Key definitions
The monitoring plan will use the following definitions of monitoring and verification.
Monitoring: the systematic surveillance of the project’s performance by measuring and recording
performance-related indicators relevant in the context of GHG emission reductions.
PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1.
page 46
Verification: the periodic ex-post auditing of monitoring results, the assessment of achieved emission
reductions and of the project’s continued conformance with all relevant project criteria by a selected
Designated Operational Entity (DOE).
Calibration is carried out by the Grid with the records being provided to the proposed project owner
annually, and these records will be maintained by the proposed project owner and the third party
designated.
5. Monitoring
Grid-connected electricity generated by the proposed project will be monitored through metering
equipment at the substation (interconnection facility connecting the facility to the grid). When the project
is not in operation, electricity from the grid will be supplied to endure the minimum requirement of
running a plant. The electricity supplied from the grid will be monitored by the same meter that metering
the electricity supplied to the grid. The net electricity supplied to the grid will be counted for emission
reduction calculation. The data can also be monitored and recorded at the on-site control center using a
computer system. The meter reading will be readily accessible for DOE. Calibration tests records will be
maintained for verification.
Overall responsibility for monitoring of GHG emissions reduction will rest with the CDM responsible
person of the proposed project. The CDM manual sets out the procedures for tracking information from
the primary source to the end-data calculations in paper document format. It is the responsibility of the
proposed project owner to provide additional necessary data and information for validation and
verification requirements of respective DOE. Physical documentation such as paper-based maps,
diagrams and environmental assessment will be collated in a central place, together with this monitoring
plan. All paper-based information will be stored by the proposed project owner and kept at least one copy.
PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1.
page 47
The responsible person for the information management system for emissions reduction monitoring must
be trained and qualified. The Table below outlines the key documents relevant to monitoring and
verification of the emission reductions from the project.
page 48
3 The proposed project owner will facilitate the verification through providing the DOE with all
required necessary information, before, during and, in the event of queries, after the verification.
3 The proposed project owner will fully cooperate with the DOE and instruct its staff and management
to be available for interviews and respond honestly to all questions from the DOE.
3 DOE must be an Accredited Entity with a proven track record in environmental auditing and
verification, experience with CDM projects and work in developing countries. The DOE should be
accredited by the CDM Executive Board.
3 If the proposed project owner deems that requirements of DOE goes beyond the scope of verification,
they should contact the CDM consultant to determine whether the requirements of DOE are
reasonable. If considered unreasonable, a rejection letter in a written format should be provided to
the DOE with justifiable reasons. If the project owner and the DOE cannot reach an agreement, the
matter will be submitted to EB or UNFCCC for arbitration.
The proposed project owner should designate CDM responsible person for the overall responsibility for
the monitoring and verification process and act as the focal point for DOE.
