This paper discusses the effectiveness of Chinese policies on and priorities for the implementation of Clean Development Mechanisms (CDM). It examines internationally funded CDM projects and China's capacity for identifying, approving and carrying out the projects. It further describes China's first CDM project, the Inner Mongolia Huitengxile Wind Farm Development Project. In conclusion, the paper states that while CDM capacity is strong centrally in China, there is little knowledge or awareness of it in industrial quarters, therefore the international projects will crucially help bring knowledge to local stakeholders.
