B.4 . Description of how the baseline scenario is identified and description of the identified baseline scenario:

1. Identification of alternatives to the project activity consistent with current laws and regulations

Under the current circumstances of the Chinese power sector there are four plausible alternatives to the project activity. These four plausible alternatives are:

Scenario a: The proposed project itself, but undertaken without being registered as a CDM project activity; Scenario b: Construction of a fuel-fired power plant with equivalent amount of annual electricity generation; Scenario c: Construction of a power plant using other renewable sources with equivalent electricity generation, such as hydropower projects or solar power plants; Scenario d: Equivalent electricity service provided by the North China Grid.

2. Justification of the selection of the baseline scenario

Scenario a: According to the investment analysis presented in B.5, the project IRR is 5.47% which is lower than the financial benchmark of Chinese Power Industries (8%)2. It is obvious that the project is not

CDM – Executive Board

page 8 an attractive investment without the CDM revenues. The proposed project will not be constructed without the consideration of CERs sales revenues. Therefore, the Scenario a is not a realistic and credible alternative.

Scenario b: Considering the same annual electricity generation, the alternative baseline scenario for the proposed project should be a fuel-fired power plant with installed capacity equivalent to or less than 40.5MW. Furthermore, as the proposed project is a grid-connected project, the alternative baseline scenario must be a grid-connected fuel-fired power project. According to Chinese power regulations, fuel- fired power plants of less than 135MW are prohibited to construct in the areas covered by large grids 3. Therefore, the Scenario b is not a realistic and credible alternative.

Scenario c: According to the water resources investigation 4, there are not enough water resources able to install a hydropower plant with equivalent electricity generation in Shandong Province. Currently the installed capacity which is commercially exploitable is very little in Shandong Province, and most of which have been developed. It is impossible to construct a hydropower plant as an alternative to the proposed project. And due to technical limit and high investment & low incoming 5, it is impossible to use solar energy to generate equivalent electricity within the project area. Therefore, the Scenario c is not feasible.

Scenario d: The North China Grid as the provider for the same electricity output as the proposed project is in accordance with the regulations and policies and economically feasible. Therefore, the Scenario d is the only feasible baseline scenario.

In conclusion, the Scenario d - Equivalent electricity service provided by the North China Grid is the only realistic and credible baseline scenario.

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 following steps are used to demonstrate the additionality of the proposed project according to the “Tool for the demonstration and assessment of additionality” (Version 04):

Step 1. Identification of alternatives to the project activity consistent with current laws and regulations

Sub-step 1a. Define alternatives to the project activity:

Realistic and credible alternatives available to the proposed project that provide outputs or services comparable to the proposed project activity include: Alternative a: The proposed project itself, but undertaken without being registered as a CDM project activity; Alternative b: Construction of a fuel-fired power plant with equivalent amount of annual electricity generation; Alternative c: Construction of a power plant using other renewable sources with equivalent electricity

page 9 generation, such as hydropower projects or solar power plants; Alternative d: Equivalent electricity service provided by the North China Grid.

According to the water resources investigation, there are not enough water resources able to install a hydropower plant with equivalent electricity generation in Shandong Province. Currently the installed capacity which is commercially exploitable is very little in Shandong Province, and most of which have been developed. It is impossible to construct a hydropower plant as an alternative to the proposed project. And due to technical limit and high investment & low incoming, it is impossible to use solar energy to generate equivalent electricity within the project area. Therefore, the Scenario c is not feasible.

Sub-step 1b. Consistency with mandatory laws and regulations:

Considering the same annual electricity generation, the alternative baseline scenario for the proposed project should be a fuel-fired power plant with installed capacity equivalent to or less than 40.5MW. Furthermore, as the proposed project is a grid-connected project, the alternative baseline scenario must be a grid-connected fuel-fired power project. According to Chinese power regulations, fuel-fired power plants of less than 135MW are prohibited to construct in the areas covered by large grids. Therefore, the Scenario b is not a realistic and credible alternative.

For alternative a, the proposed project undertaken without being registered as a CDM project activity satisfies China’s regulations.

For alternative d, equivalent electricity service provided by NCG satisfies China’s regulations.

Therefore, alternative a and alternative d satisfy China’s regulations and will be analyzed in Step 2 as potential baseline alternatives.

Step 2. Investment Analysis

Sub-step 2a. Determine appropriate analysis method

The “Tool for the Demonstration and Assessment of Additionality” recommends three analysis methods: simple cost analysis, investment comparison analysis and benchmark analysis.

The proposed project produces economic benefits through the sales of electricity other than CDM related income; therefore, the simple cost analysis cannot be taken. The investment comparison analysis is not applicable to the proposed project because the alternative of the proposed project is “Equivalent electricity service provided by the North China Grid”, not a single project. Hence, the benchmark analysis is chosen and the Internal Return Rate (IRR) is used to assess the financial viability of the project activity.

Sub-step 2b. Option III. Apply benchmark Analysis

The financial benchmark rate of return (after tax) of Chinese Power Industries is 8% for the IRR of total investment(see footnote 2).

Sub-step 2c. Calculation and comparison of financial indicators

1) Parameters needed for calculation of IRR According to the Feasibility Study Report of the proposed project, parameters needed for calculation of IRR are as follows: PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

CDM – Executive Board

page 10

Table B-2 Parameters for calculation of IRR Installed capacity 40.5 MW Electricity delivered to grid 77,320 MWh Static total investment RMB 425,560,000 Expected tariff(Including VAT) RMB 0.60 /KWh Tax VAT 8.5% Income tax 33% Extra tax 10% of turnover tax Operation life 22 years Annual O&M cost RMB 4.59 million Expected CERs price EUR 10/tCO 2e

2) Comparison of the project IRR and the financial benchmark

In accordance with benchmark analysis, if the financial indicators of the proposed project, such as the project IRR, are lower than the benchmark, the proposed project is not considered to be financially attractive.

Table B-3 shows the project IRR with and without the income from CERs sale. Without the sales of CERs, the project IRR is 5.47% which is lower than the financial benchmark. Thus the proposed project is not financially acceptable. Taking into account the CDM revenues, the project IRR is 8.13% and higher than the financial benchmark. Therefore, the CDM revenues enable the project to overcome the investment barrier.

Table B-3 Comparison of IRR with and without the income from CERs sale Item Without CDM Benchmark With CDM IRR 5.47% 8% 8.13%

Sub-step 2d. Sensitivity analysis

For the proposed project, three parameters were selected as sensitive factors to check out the financial attractiveness:

1) Static total Investment 2) Expected tariff(Including VAT) 3) Annual O&M Cost

Assuming the above three factors vary in the range of -10% to 10%, the project IRR ( without the income from CERs sales) varies to different extents as shown in Table B-4 and Figure B.1 below.

Figure B.1 Sensibility analysis of the proposed project

Within the reasonable changing range of Static total Investment, Expected tariff (Including VAT) and Annual O&M Cost, the IRR of the proposed project is always lower than the investment benchmark, then lacks financial attractiveness.

Based on the Investment Analysis above, the proposed project is not financially attractive without consideration of CERs sales revenues. Alternative a of the proposed project undertaken without being registered as a CDM project activity is not feasible thus not baseline scenario.

Step 4 Common practice analyses

Sub-step 4a. Analyze other activities similar to the proposed project activity

The proposed project is a new 40.5MW wind farm in Shandong Province. Activities similar to the proposed activity should be wind farms located in Shandong Province with the installed capacity between 15MW to 60MW and the operation date later than January 1 st , 2000. Those similar activities are listed in Table B-5 below.

Table B-5 Similar scale (15WM to 60WM) Wind farm Projects in Shandong Province PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

Sub-step 4b. Discuss any similar options that are occurring:

In 2006, the installed capacity of wind farms is up to 324.2MW, accounting for lower than 0.279% of the total installed capacity of the North China Grid 9. Therefore, it is clear that wind power is not common in Shandong Province.

Jimo Qingdao Huawei wind farm project got foreign company's support to overcome its investment barrier which is unavailable to the proposed project. And the above table demonstrates that other similar wind farm projects are all seeking support from applying as CDM projects for financial competition, Shandong Changdao (Huaneng) wind farm project and Shandong Laizhou Diaolongzhui wind farm project have successfully registered in EB.

Through the analysis and discussion above, there are essential distinction between the proposed project and the above projects in terms of the installed capacity and sources of investment and operation environment. Therefore, there is no similar project as the proposed project in Shandong Province. The proposed project is not a common practice.

In conclusion, the proposed project activity is additional.

B.6.1. Explanation of methodological choices:

ACM0002, th e Baseline Emission Factor of Chinese Power Grids in 2007 10 are applied as the following steps, and the data are from China Electric Power Yearbook and China Energy Statistical Yearbook

The key methodological steps are:

I. Calculating the Baseline Emission (BE y);

II. Calculating the Project Emission (PE y);

III. Calculating the Leakage Emission ( LE y);

CDM – Executive Board

page 13

IV. Calculating the Emission Reduction (ER y)

I. Calculating the Baseline Emission

According to ACM0002, the baseline emission ( BE y) is the product of the baseline emission factor (EF grid,CM,y ) times the electricity supplied by the project activity to the grid ( EG y). First, the baseline emission factor is calculated as the Combined Margin emission factor.

I.1 Calculation of the baseline emission factor ( EF grid,CM,y )

According to ACM0002, the baseline emission factor ( EF grid,CM,y ) is calculated by “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system”.

The baseline emission factor ( EF grid,CM,y ) is the Combined Margin emission factor, which consists of the weighted average of Operating Margin emission factor and Build Margin emission factor by utilizing the latest data vintage (ex-ante) for the North China Grid

Six steps are utilized to calculate the baseline emission:

Step 1 – Identify the relevant electric power system. Step 2 – Select an operating margin (OM) method. Step 3 – Calculate the operating margin emission factor (EF grid,OM,y )according to the selected method. Step 4 – Identify the cohort of power units to be included in the build margin. Step 5 – Calculate the build margin emission factor (EF grid,BM,y ). Step 6 – Calculate the combined margin emissions factor (EF grid,CM,y ).

Step 1 – Identify the relevant electric power system

According to ‘the Baseline Emission Factor of Chinese Power Grids in 2007’ published by Chinese DNA, the relevant electric power system of the project is North China Grid, and the data of calculation are from China Electric Power Yearbook and China Energy Statistical Yearbook.

Step 2 –Select an operating margin (OM) method

The calculation of (EF grid,OM,y ) is based on one of the four following methods:

(a) Simple OM, or (b) Simple Adjusted OM, or (c) Dispatch Data Analysis OM, or (d) Average OM.

According to the total electricity generation in 2001-2005 of the North China Grid, the low-cost/must run resources constitute less than 50% of total amount grid generating output (see Annex 3 for details). Therefore, Method (a) simple OM is used to calculate the simple OM emission factor utilize the data of 2003-2005 in ex-ante option.

Step 3 – Select an operating margin (EF grid,OM,,y ) method according to the selected method

According to “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system ”, the simple OM emission PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

CDM – Executive Board

page 14 factor in y year ( EFgrid,OM,simple,y ) is calculated as the generation-weighted average CO 2 emissions per unit net electricity generation (tCO2/MWh) of all generating power plants serving the system, not including low-cost / must-run power plants / units. It may be calculated:

Option A: Based on data on fuel consumption and net electricity generation of each power plant / unit4, or Option B: Based on data on net electricity generation, the average efficiency of each power unit and the fuel type(s) used in each power unit, or

Option C: Based on data on the total net electricity generation of all power plants serving the system and the fuel types and total fuel consumption of the project electricity system.

Because the fuel consumption and net electricity generation data of each power plant / unit in the North China Grid is unavailable, but the total net electricity generation, the fuel types and total fuel consumption of all power plants in the North China Grid is available, so option C is the only option.

The formula of EF grid,OM,simple,y in option C is: × × ∑ FC i,y NCV i,y EF CO i,,2 y = i EF grid ,OMsimple ,y (1) EG gen , y

Where:

EF grid,OMsimple,y = Simple operating margin CO 2 emission factor in year y (tCO 2/MWh); FC i,y =Amount of fossil fuel type i consumed in the project electricity system in year y (mass or volume unit); NCV i,y = Net calorific value (energy content) of fossil fuel type i in year y (GJ / mass or volume unit);

EF CO2,i,y = CO 2 emission factor of fossil fuel type i in year y (tCO 2/GJ); EG gen,y = Net electricity generated and delivered to the grid by all power sources serving the system, not including low-cost / must-run power plants / units, in year y (MWh); i = All fossil fuel types combusted in power sources in the project electricity system in year y; y = the three most recent years for which data is available at the time of submission of the CDM-PDD to the DOE for validation.

The data in the computation is from China Electric Power Yearbook 2004-2006.

Step 4 – Identify the cohort of power units to be included in the build margin

According to “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system ”, the sample group m consists of either 1) the five power plants that have been built most recently; Or 2) the power plant capacity additions in the electricity system that comprise 20% of the system generation and that built most recently. The one with larger annual generation should be used.

However, the information on the five power plants built most recently in the North China Grid is not publicly available. EB guidance on the application of approved methodology AM0005 now consolidated into ACM0002 can be applied for the purposed of estimating the build margin emission factor for each PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

CDM – Executive Board

page 15 fuel type 11 . The proposed deviations accepted and the alternative solutions in absence of data were as follows:

1) It is agreed to use the new capacity additions during the past 1-3 years to calculate the Build Margin emission factor;

2) It is agreed that the use of the installed capacity to replace the annual electricity generation to calculate the Build Margin emission factor;

3) As a similar conservative estimation, to calculate the total fuel consumption of different fuel-fired power plants by utilization of the most advanced commercialized technologies.

Using the average fuel efficiency of existing power plants as the baseline will bring about higher baseline emission and result in higher emission reductions, as the average fuel efficiency of old power plants is lower than the new power plants, which is not a conservative method.

Step 5. Calculation of the Build Margin Emission Factor ( EF grid,BM,y )

Due to the difficulty of separating the coal-fired, gas-fired or oil-fired installed capacity from the total fuel-fired installed capacity, according to the suggestion on the alternative solutions in absence of data by CDM EB, the Build Margin emission factor (EF BM,y ) will be calculated as :

1) Based on the most recent year’s energy balance of the North China Grid, calculating the percentages of CO 2 emissions from the coal-fired, oil-fired and gas-fired power plants in total fuel-fired CO 2 emissions;

2) Based on the most advanced commercialized technologies which applied by the coal-fired, oil-fired and gas-fired power plants, calculating the fuel-fired emission factor of the North China Grid;

3) Calculating the Build Margin emission factor (EF BM,y ) through fuel-fired emission factor times the weighted-average of fuel-fired installed capacity which is more close to 20% in the new capacity additions. The detailed calculation as follows:

B.6.3 Ex-ante calculation of emission reductions:

I. Baseline Emission

I.1 Calculation of the baseline emission factor ( EF grid,CM,y )

Therefore, the North China Grid’s Operating Margin emission factor (EF Grid,OM,simple ) is the weighted emission factors of 2003-2005:

EF grid ,OMsimple , y =1.1208 tCO 2e/MWh

The Build Margin emission factor can be calculated by formulae (2)-(9): EF grid,BM,y =0.9397 tCO 2e/MWh

The baseline emission factor EF y is calculated as formula (10). Thus, EF grid,CM,y = 1.07553 tCO 2e/MWh

I.2. Calculation of the Baseline Emission ( BE y)

The baseline emission BE y is calculated as formulae (11): BE y= (EG y - EG baseline )×EF grid,CM,y = (EG PJ to grid,y - EG grid to PJ,y - EG baseline )×EF grid, CM,y = (77,320-0-0) × 1.07553=83,160 t CO2e /year

3. Metering Systems The net electricity supply will be metered. The main meter should be installed at the position both agreed by the project owner and Shandong Province Grid Company to measure the net electricity supplied to the grid by the project, which is treated as the main recording system. The backup meter at the project site is employed to measure the output electricity given the main metering system fails, which is treated as the backup recording system. The accuracy degree of the both electric meters is 0.2S.

PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

CDM – Executive Board

page 23 4. Calibration

The calibration of the electric meters will be periodically carried out according to relevant national standards and regulations. The electric meters for the electricity delivered to the grid by the project should be tested by a qualified metrical organization co-authorized by the owner and Shandong Province Grid Company. After the calibration, the electric meters should be jointly inspected and sealed on the behalf of the parties concerned and shall not be accessible by either party except in the presence of the other party or its accredited representatives.

If following works for the main metering system of the electricity delivered to the grid by the project happen: remove, replacement, disassembling, sealing, seal-breaking, accident treatment and etc, the Shandong Province Grid Company is the responsible operator, and the representative of the project owner should attend.

If the parties have dissidence on the operation of the main metering system, the main metering system will be calibrated by the qualified metrical organization co-authorized by both parties. Both parties will decide the amount of electricity depending on the results of the calibration and relevant regulations. If the parties have dissidence on the calibration results, a high qualification metrical organization will be authorized to re-calibrate the meters.

If the main metering system of the electricity delivered to the grid by the project has failure, damage or missing, the amount of the electricity delivered to the grid by the project will be determined by the records of the backup metering system, the records of other relevant metering system, or other measurements agreed by both parties.

5. Data Collection and Management

Two methods will be used to measure and record the data: monthly hand-log, and automatic log by the metering government system. The data collected by the metering government system will be the main reference for electricity sales. If the data difference between the data from monthly hand-log and automatic log by the metering government system is larger than the permit, the data from monthly hand- log will be the reference after the validation of the grid company.

Under the monitoring system, a data management system will be set up for keeping data and information, and tracking information from the primary source to data calculation, in paper format. It is the responsibility of the owner to provide additional necessary data, information and document for validation and verification requirements of respective DOE.

Paper documentation such as maps, diagrams and environmental assessment will be collected in a central place, together with this monitoring plan. In order to facilitate auditor’s reference, monitoring results should be indexed. All paper-based information will be stored by the owner and kept at least one copy.

The data monitored and required for verification and issuance will be kept for two years after the end of the crediting period or the last issuance of CERs for this proposed project activity, whichever occurs later.

6. Verification

A qualified DOE will be selected and engaged in the verification. The owner will make the arrangements for the verification and prepare for the audit and verification process to the best of its abilities. The owner PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

Step 4 – Identify the cohort of power units to be included in the build margin

The proposed project used the deviations agreed by EB guidance on the application of approved methodology AM0005 now consolidated into ACM0002 can be applied for the purposed of estimating the build margin emission factor for each fuel type. The proposed deviations accepted and the alternative solutions in absence of data were as follows: 1) It is agreed to use the new PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1

CDM – Executive Board

page 36 capacity additions during the past 1-3 years to calculate the Build Margin emission factor; 2) It is agreed that the use of the installed capacity to replace the annual electricity generation to calculate the Build Margin emission factor; 3) As a similar conservative estimation, to calculate the total fuel consumption of different fuel-fired power plants by utilization of the most advanced commercialized technologies. Using the average fuel efficiency of existing power plants as the baseline will bring about higher baseline emission and result in higher emission reductions, as the average fuel efficiency of old power plants is lower than the new power plants, which is not a conservative method.
