Renewable Energy Law in China
June 2007
A review of the Chinese Renewable Energy Law and policy was published in June 2007 by the RELaw Assist project – a Chinese-Australian cooperation which aims to promote renewable energy in China and support Australian industry into this market.
The 72 page report gives background information of the energy industry, the chinese legal system and policies as a background for a detailed review of the renewable energy law and future implementation and remaining gaps in the regulation. The report also discusses the wider issues associated with implementing a project in China, including project approvals, project financing and structuring, projects under the Kyoto Protocol, and protection of intellectual property.
