Renewable energy technologies — wind, solar-thermal, solar photovoltaics, and biomass — made major advances internationally in the past decade. As China’s fast economic development demands more electricity, and the world moves towards renewable resources, the country is looking for these alternatives.
China’s policies on renewable energy development fall into three categories...
ACHIEVEMENTS UNDER PROJECTS CLOSED INFY05 China Passive Solar Heating for Rural Health Clinics (P070161) This GEF project strengthened the capacity of architectural and engineering design institutes in China to design and build energy-efficient passive solar buildings. The project funded the incremental cost of constructing 30 energy efficient rural health clinics as a component of a World Bank health sector project (Health XIII, P003566).

PROJECTS ADDED TO THE PIPELINE IN FY05 China CRESP Phase 1 Part B (P096158/P087292) Part B of Phase 1 of CRESP supports the establishment of a 100 MW wind farm atHuitengxile in Inner Mongolia and a bundle of 18 small hydro projects with a totalcapacity of 56 MW in Zhejiang province. The Huitengxile wind farm will generate5,380 GWh over the lifetime of the project (20 years), avoiding CO2 emissions of 4.4million tons or 1.2 million tons of carbon. The small hydro projects will generate anadditional 2,500 GWh over the lifetime of the project, avoiding 2 million tons of CO2 emissions or 0.56 tons of carbon.

Non-grid RE Experiences Intl Case Studies: This paper provides a thorough review of critical federal and local governmental policies that can be helpful in promoting rural, off-grid renewable energy development. It provides three case studies from Nepal, Kenya and Chile that illustrate the implementation of a range of policy models. The paper analyses the relative effectiveness of each policy model as it applies to China. (15 pages , MSWord)
Certification of Off-grid RE Systems: This is a discussion of certification programs for off-grid renewable energy systems. It contains a summary of the two most prominent international bodies for small-scale solar certification and the issues associated with using these standards in combination with nationally developed standards. The memo gives two cases studies on PV certification work that is being done in China and Nepal. (8 pages, MSWord)
Financing Off-grid PV: This memo outlines different schemes that have been used to finance solar PV projects including cash financing, credit financing, and leasing. The memo provides case studies from different countries and an analysis of lessons learned. (6 pages, MSWord)

The Renewable Energy ToolKit (REToolKit) The Renewable Energy ToolKit provides a broad set of tools to assist Bank staff and country counterparts to improve the design and implementation of renewable energy (RE) projects, incorporates best practices and lessons learned from RE projects supported by the WBG and others, and is operationally oriented to address practical implementation needs at each stage in the project cycle.
Renewable Energy in China, Grid Connected Wind Power in China,National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). This paper analyzes the paths different countries have taken to develop local wind turbine manufacturing industries and their motivations for doing so. The core of the report is a set of case studies detailing how 12 different countries have sought, meeting either success or failure, to encourage wind turbine manufacturing within their borders. The paper aims to identify lessons that can guide China as it develops measures to promote its own wind turbine manufacturing industry.
Modernized Biomass Energy in China: SUMMARY REPORT, United Nations Development Programme, United Nations Foundation, Project Number CPR/99/H01/A/IV/99, August 2004.
The Solar Sell - China With the largest population in the world and a rapidly growing economy, China faces many problems with electricity supply. Not only is the existing coal-powered electricity grid damaging the environment, it is also failing to meet the needs of millions of rural dwellers. The Chinese Renewable Energy Development Project, implemented by the World Bank's Asia Asia Sustainable and Alternative Energy Programme (ASTAE), is acting to help resolve this problem. By advocating and supporting the adoption of good quality solar home systems, the aim is to provide a reliable, environmentally sound source of electricity to those who have been left without.
