General description of project activity A.1. Title of the project activity: Project title: Sichuan Dechang Xinma 120 MW Hydropower project PDD Version: 1.0 Completion date PDD: 11/08/2009 A.2. Description of the project activity: The Sichuan Dechang Xinma 120 MW Hydropower project (hereafter referred to „ the project „ or „project‟) involves the construction of a run-of-river hydropower station at the main stream of the Anning River at Meizi Village, Dechang county of Sichuan Province, China, which is constructed and operated by Dechang Xinma Hydropower development Co., Ltd. The dam locates 40 km from Dechang County, The total installed capacity of the project will be 120MW and the total surface area of the reservoir at full capacity is 374,000m2 and the power density of the project is 320 W/m2. The expected annual effective operating hour is 4,086 hours and annual power generation is about 573,960MWh. The expected annual power supply is 544,000 MWh. The main objective of the project is to generate power from clean renewable hydropower and supply electricity to the Sichuan Province Grid while contributing to the sustainability of power generation of the Central China Grid. The scenario existing prior to the start of the project activity is the same as the baseline scenario. In absence of the project activity, electricity delivered to the grid by the project activity would have otherwise been generated by the operation of grid-connected power plants and by the addition of new generation sources. The electric power will be supplied to the Central China Grid via Sichuan Province Grid. The power generated by the project will replace the same amount of the electric power in Central China Grid which is predominantly based on coal-fired thermal power plant and therefore the anthropogenic emissions will be reduced and achieve the goal of emission reduction. The estimated annual CERs will be 463,923 tCO2. As a renewable energy project, development of the project fits with the Chinese energy sector objective and will contribute to the sustainability, specifically through: Improving the power sector, releasing the conflict between the power demand and supply and reducing the dependence on exhaustible fossil fuels for power generation; Reducing air pollution by replacing coal-fired power plants with clean, renewable power and the adverse health impacts from air pollution; Creation of employment opportunities for local residents A.3.

Category(ies) of project activity: The project activity falls within Sectoral Scope 1: Energy Industries. - Electricity generation from renewable energy (hydropower) A.4.3. Technology to be employed by the project activity: The main objective of the project is to generate power from clean renewable hydropower and supply electricity to the Sichuan Province Grid while contributing to the sustainability of power generation of the Central China Grid. The scenario existing prior to the start of the project activity is the same as PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM PDD) - Version 03 CDM – Executive Board page 5 the baseline scenario. In absence of the project activity, electricity delivered to the grid by the project activity would have otherwise been generated by the operation of grid-connected power plants and by the addition of new generation sources. Coal-fired power generation is currently the dominant power supply option within the Central China Grid. Generation data within the Grid are published by Chinese authorities through the Electric Power Yearbook and the Energy yearly. By displacing coal-fired power generation with clean renewable energy, the project leads to the reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. In accordance with the applied methodology, the greenhouse gasses accounted for are CO2 emissions from electricity generation in fossil fuel fired power plants that is displaced due to the proposed project activity, the CH4 emissions from the reservoir and the CO2 emission from the backup power generation. This project generates electricity by using renewable hydropower and the energy transformation process, the proposed newly built equipment and system, the variables need to be monitored and the layout of the monitoring equipment of the project is shown in Figure B.1. The project is run-of-river style hydropower station, the pivot consists of 14 m non-overflow dam, 21,281 m water division tunnel, pressure forebay, penstock, power house and switch station. The surface area of the reservoir at full capacity is 374,000 m2, the power density is 320 W/m2. The project will be connected to Yonglang 220 kV transformer station via an on-site 10.5/110kV booster substation and then connects to Sichuan Provincial Grid while the Sichuan Provincial Grid is part of the Central China Grid. The project will install 3 generator sets with an individual capacity of 40 MW. The specific technical data of the turbines / generators are listed in Table A.2.
