13 Project Idea Notes Published
1 September 2007 (updated from 23 May 2007)
Three Project Idea Notes (PINs) and Eight Mini PINs were added to the website at the end of May 2007, with a further two Mini PINs added in August 2007. The PINs cover hydropower projects in China and the Mini PINs describe bioenergy projects in Thailand.
PINs are ongoing and potential CDM and JI projects involving Sustainable Energy Technologies (SETs). The PINs will offer business investment opportunities for EU ETS companies
If you are interested in pursuing any of the projects described in the PINs, please contact the relevant PIN/PDD Developer shown on the PIN.

The Pig Farms Manure Biogas Project (PFMBP#1) is the bundling of four pig farms which shall install anaerobic digestion system for their wastewaters.
To mitigate the methane (CH4) gas generation from organic digestion in anaerobic condition of existing open ponds system, each farm will install a anaerobic wastewater treatment reactor, namely, High suspended solids Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (H-UASB) system, which is a modification of the UASB concept. The total biogas produced from these H-UASB systems, which is of approximately 9,774 m³/day (@ 65% CH4), shall be used to produce electric power to be used for on-site operations.

The Municipality#1 is the public organization which has the legal responsibilities to collect, handle, transport and dispose of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) which is generated within the municipal area. At present, MSW generated in the Municipality#1 area, approximately 150 ton per day, is disposed by open-dump method, which causes uncontrolled methane (CH4) gas emission to the atmosphere.
To avoid the GHG emission, and to promote waste recycling with the utilization of waste to energy, Municipality#1 shall construct and operate the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Treatment Plant, 150-200 ton/day capacity. Approximately 150 ton/day of MSW shall be fed to the plant, which uses heat treatment process together with sorting & recycling process for producing high biomass content Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF with more than 95% biomass content).

This CDM project activity consists of constructing a small hydropower station in Rucheng county to enhance the socio-economic development in the area.
The Laopokou hydroelectric project would be located on the lower reaches of the Qijiang river, in Rucheng County, Hunan Province. Plant capacity will be 24,000 kW (two vertical 12,000 kW Francis type turbines) at 72 m net head, with an associated maximum hydraulic capacity of 21.1 m³/s. Annual energy output of the station would be 85,370 GWh.

Beihe II SHP will increase the ratio of clean energy within the Zhejiang province energy mix and contribute to the reduction of reliance on antiquated and highly polluting thermal plants. While the province has a relatively diverse energy mix including hydro, wind, energy from waste disposal, and nuclear, the bulk of the electricity is generated by coal and to a lesser extent by oil.
