CDM – Executive Board page 2 SECTION A. General description of project activity A.1 Title of the project activity: Heilongjiang Yilan Fuqiang Wind Power Project Version:1.0 Date: 12/ 06 /2008 A.2. Description of the project activity: The Heilongjiang Yilan Fuqiang Wind Power Project (hereafter refers to the proposed project) is located in Yilan County, Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province, P.R.C. It involves the installation of 33 turbines, each of which has a rated output of 1500kW, providing a total capacity of 49.5MW. The annual output of the proposed project is estimated to be 123,115MWh. The electricity to be generated will be sold to Northeast China Power Grid. The proposed project will help reduce GHG emissions generated from the high-growth, coal-dominated power generation. The estimated annual GHG emission reductions are 141,099 tCO2e. Being as an environmentally sound energy supply technology, wind power is a priority development project in China. The contributions of the proposed project to sustainable development goal are summarized as follows: ♦ Being located in a power grid dominated by thermal power plants, development of the proposed project will not only reduce GHG emissions but also mitigate local environmental pollution caused by air emissions from thermal power plants. ♦ The proposed project could be helpful to diversify power mix of Northeast China Power Grid. ♦ Chinese government has established policies to encourage investment in Northeast China in order to accelerate local economic development. The proposed project could contribute to meet local electricity demand, therefore undoubtedly boosts the economy in the local region. ♦ Reducing the dependence on exhaustible fossil fuels for power generation. ♦ Creation of employment.

Public funding of the project activity: >> There is no public funding from Annex I Parties for this Project. SECTION B. Application of a baseline and monitoring methodology B.1. Title and reference of the approved baseline and monitoring methodology applied to the project activity: >> Approved consolidated baseline and monitoring methodology ACM0002: “Consolidated baseline methodology for grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources” (Version 07/Sectoral Scope: 01/EB 36) Tool for the demonstration and assessment of additionality (Version 05/EB 39/Annex10) Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system (Version 01/EB 35/Annex 12) For more information, please visit: http://cdm.unfccc.int/methodologies/PAmethodologies/approved.html B.2 Justification of the choice of the methodology and why it is applicable to the project activity: >> Approved consolidated baseline and monitoring methodology ACM0002: “Consolidated baseline methodology for grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources” (Version 07/Sectoral Scope: 01/EB 36) is applicable to grid-connected renewable power generation project activities (including electricity capacity additions) under the following conditions: PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03.1. CDM – Executive Board page 6 z The project activity is the installation or modification/retrofit of a power plant/unit of one of the following types: hydro power plant/unit (either with a run-of-river reservoir or an accumulation reservoir), wind power plant/unit, geothermal power plant/unit, solar power plant/unit, wave power plant/unit or tidal power plant/unit; z The geographic and system boundaries for the relevant electricity grid can be clearly identified and information on the characteristics of the grid is available and etc. Applying the methodology to the proposed project is justified because: ¾ The proposed project involves the electricity capacity additions from wind sources; ¾ The geographic and system boundary of the Northeast China Power Grid can be clearly identified and information on the characteristics of the grid is available; ¾ The proposed project does not involve switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy at the site of the project activity; Therefore, the approved consolidated baseline and monitoring methodology ACM0002 (Version 07) is applicable to the proposed project. B.3. Description of the sources and gases included in the project boundary >> Electricity generated by the Project will be transmitted the Northeast China Grid. The Northeast China Grid includes Liaoning Province, Jilin Province and Heilongjiang Province. Within the project boundary, the GHG emissions by the project activity are zero. And for the baseline determination, only the CO2 emissions from electricity generation in fossil fuel fired power plants shall be accounted. For more details please see Table B-1.
