Carbon Finance Investments

The Gansu-Qinghai Hydro Portfolio is a portfolio of seven small hydro projects in the Chinese provinces of Gansu and Qinghai, totalling 109.5 MW, generating enough energy for approximately 220,000 homes. Six of the projects have been registered and the remainder is expected to be registered by July 2012. CCC entered into a carbon development and offtake agreement which supported the finance of the project.

The projects involve the detection and repair of leaks in above ground regulator gas stations in Uzbekistan and Georgia across a geographic area about the same size as the United Kingdom, conserving more than 225million m3 of gas per year and providing income to more than 400 local staff. CCC was the first company to register a project with this CDM methodology. CCC entered into a carbon development and offtake agreement which supported the finance of the project.

The Xiaping landfill is the largest sanitary landfill in Shenzhen City. The Shenzhen Xiaping Landfill Gas Collection and Utilisation Project involves collecting and utilising the methane extracted from the landfill for electricity generation in an 8MW power plant. CCC entered into a carbon development and offtake agreement which supported the finance of the project.
