This is hard to answer. The west will start from simple  economic principles and find that the Chinese government has an  incentive to do so and that incentives predict behaviour. This is, of  course, correct, and the Chinese government has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cdm.ccchina.gov.cn\/web\/NewsInfo.asp?NewsId=4066\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">admitted<\/a>  that &ldquo;CDM has played a major role in overcoming funding and technology  obstacles for wind-power firms and, without CDM, China&rsquo;s wind-power  sector would not have developed this quickly.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>But the incentive  and the act are two entirely different things. The government has  repeatedly <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/b.qzone.qq.com\/cgi-bin\/blognew\/simpleqzone_blog_data?hostuin=25558577&amp;r=0&amp;idm=qzs.qq.com&amp;bdm=b.qzone.qq.com&amp;mdm=m.qzone.qq.com&amp;blogid=1269240999&amp;numperpage=15\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stated<\/a>  that it has set prices for wind power by relying on the objective laws  of development of the sector and the grid&rsquo;s ability to adapt and that  CDM factors have not been taken into consideration.<\/p>\n<p>According to  the 2007 &ldquo;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/raw\/content\/china\/zh\/press\/reports\/wind-power-report.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">China  Wind Power Report<\/a>&rdquo; by the Chinese Renewable Energy Industries  Association, the Global Wind Energy Council and Greenpeace, the sector  has gone through four key stages. The period from 1986 to 1993 saw  initial demonstrations, with tariffs equal to that of coal power (under  0.3 yuan per kilowatt hour) and projects mostly relying on international  aid. Then, 1994 to 2003 saw commercialisation, with tariffs being set  between 0.38 yuan (US$0.06) and 1.2 yuan (US$0.18) per kilowatt hour in  contracts between wind-power plants and the grid operators on the basis  of cost plus reasonable profit.<\/p>\n<p>From 2003 to 2009, there was scaling and  localisation: a combination of pricing via tenders and approval, with  sustained increases in tendered prices. And October 2009 saw the start  of compulsory purchase of power at four levels (0.51 yuan; 0.54 yuan;  0.58 yuan; and 0.61 yuan per kilowatt hour).<\/p>\n<p>So we can say that  the Chinese government sets wind-power tariffs in accordance with its  own needs &ndash; they are not set just for CDM. Figures back this up: In  2009, total investment in Chinese wind power was 130 billion yuan (US$19  billion). Meanwhile, the sector obtained CDM investment of 1 billion  yuan (US$146 million). The addition of CDM funding is of course welcome,  but it only puts a little extra in the pot and is clearly not enough to  influence policy.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, observation and analysis of PDDs  for the 143 wind-power projects registered up to the end of 2009, show  reported power tariffs ranged from 0.4 yuan (US$0.06) to 0.8 yuan  (US$0.12) per kilowatt hour. This level was sustained, with no clear  trend of falling prices. These are of course the estimated PDD prices  and there will be slight discrepancies with the price approved by the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.ndrc.gov.cn\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Development and Reform  Commission<\/a> (NDRC). But these are the prices used by the EB for IRR  calculations and are representative of the overall situation. Of course,  wind resources vary, policy environments are uneven and tariffs change  across provinces and even projects. A look at electricity prices across  different regions with wind-power projects shows how complex pricing is.  But we failed to find any major trend of falling prices.<\/p>\n<p>To sum  up, there is no sound foundation for EB&rsquo;s rejection of Chinese  wind-power projects due to government control of power tariffs.  Meanwhile, the unexpected results of the additionality tool when applied  to the Chinese market show that there are flaws with its design &ndash;  namely, that a tool based on market economics does not work in the  context of the changing regulatory environment of China&rsquo;s rapidly  growing electricity sector. The EB should learn from this and work on  reform of the mechanism itself. <\/p>\n<p>Of course, there is also room  for improvement in China: for example in transparency of policy and  processes for setting power tariffs; the regular checking and updating  of data; and increasing the feasibility of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pewclimate.org\/docUploads\/mrv-report.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">measurement,  reporting and verification<\/a> (MRV). A well-functioning CDM mechanism  is in line with China&rsquo;s interests: providing credible pricing signals,  creating a stable market and promoting faster growth of renewable-energy  investment. The greatest losers from this controversy have been China&rsquo;s  wind-power firms, project developers and carbon-trading agencies.<\/p>\n<p>CDM  was a seed of great potential when it was first created. But it has  grown into a hot potato. In many areas, it has played a positive role:  helping to realise funding transfers for global emissions cuts,  promoting some technology transfers, boosting development of clean  energy and low-carbon technology in developing nations, strengthening  capacity for emission reductions in poor countries and more. The main  problem with CDM is the debate over additionality, which has spread from  the destruction of greenhouse gas <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carbon-financeonline.com\/index.cfm?section=features&amp;action=view&amp;id=10420\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HFC23<\/a>  to wind-power projects. <\/p>\n<p>The system is also over-complex and  burdened with lengthy processes, the EB&rsquo;s capacity building has been  inadequate and regional distribution of projects is uneven. The CDM&rsquo;s  contribution should not be ignored, but nor should its problems. The  above analysis shows that work is needed in one of two directions: to  find a way to account for complex domestic policies or to find a  standard for evaluation which is agnostic towards domestic policy. And  either choice presents challenges.<\/p>\n<p>In the short term the most  important task is to set realistic and credible baselines. For wind  power in China, a method for comparison with an actual baseline may be  required. For the Chinese market, this is generally held to be coal  power. Given the effect of complex ongoing reform and the logic of  state-owned enterprise behaviour, the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Independent_Power_Producer\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">independent  power producer<\/a> (IPP) model may be a feasible alternative for the  current market. Although IPPs only account for about 10% of China&rsquo;s  power market, they can operate largely in accordance with market rules  and better reflect a market scenario. Although tariffs for IPPs still  require NDRC approval and there are issues with obtaining the data, it  is a more credible approach. <\/p>\n<p>At the same time, third party  expert verification of baselines and increased transparency of  government tariff-setting mechanisms will reduce risk for developers and  consulting agencies, and also help to strengthen CDM credibility. This  will not resolve the issues of perverse incentives and the &ldquo;offsetter&rsquo;s  paradox&rdquo;, but will, as much as possible, reduce the debate over  additionality and regulatory risks.<\/p>\n<p>But as long as additionality  is the standard, it will be hard to separate activities from domestic  emissions policy and avoid disputes. When the Chinese government starts  large-scale subsidies, or policy requires certain emissions-reduction  projects (such as power-saving bulbs or the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.cn\/zwgk\/2009-07\/21\/content_1370811.htm\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Golden Sun  project<\/a> subsidising photovoltaic solar power) either the policy  requirement will mean additionality tests are failed, or accounting  analysis will fail as the funding is adequate. Additionality  stipulations are still a challenge &ndash; and this is an issue that the EB  and climate policymakers must face up to.<\/p>\n<p>Global climate  negotiations remain <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.businessgreen.com\/business-green\/news\/2263678\/boer-confirms-plan-incorporate\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">deadlocked<\/a>  and there is huge uncertainty over the CDM beyond 2012. But humanity&rsquo;s  efforts to meet the climate-change challenge will not end here. Without  the CDM, we will have some other development mechanism &ndash; perhaps a  policy tool such as a carbon tax or other policy instruments. The issues  that have arisen during the application of CDM demonstrate the enormity  of the climate-change challenge. But whatever tools are used, we need  to understand their strengths and limitations, and the challenges that  may arise during implementation, and then improve their design. CDM may  only be one small part of the overall climate-change landscape, but  countless individual projects combine to form international  emissions-reduction efforts &ndash; a kind of creativity in the face of  climate change. We hope that this will continue in spite of controversy.<br \/>\n<em><br \/>\nHe  Gang and Richard Morse are research associates at Stanford University&rsquo;s  <\/em><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pesd.stanford.edu\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Program  on Energy and Sustainable Development<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/p>\n<p>This is a summary of  the <\/em><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/fsi.stanford.edu\/publications\/making_carbon_offsets_work_in_the_developing_world_lessons_from_the_chinese_wind_controversy\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>full  report<\/em><\/a><em>, &ldquo;Making offsets work in developing countries: lessons from  Chinese wind controversy&rdquo;, published by Stanford University Program on  Energy and Sustainable Development.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinadialogue.net\/article\/show\/single\/en\/3664-Lessons-from-controversy-1-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PART ONE<\/a>: Problems exposed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Homepage image from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sousolar.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sousolar.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the conclusion of their two-part analysis of the Clean Development Mechanism, He Gang&nbsp;
