--FILE--View of wind turbines at a wind farm in Rudong, east Chinas Jiangsu province, 29 May 2010. Chinas wind power has expanded rapidly in recent years, almost doubling in size every 12 months since 2005. According to the Global Wind Energy Council, China had wind power capacity of 25.1 gigawatts by the end of 2009. The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), the worlds leading carbon market and an important tool for the promotion of carbon cuts, climate protection and sustainable development, has played an important role in this growth. As of the end of 2009, 32% of Chinas wind power capacity was registered as CDM projects, with accumulated carbon cuts by 2012 predicted to be 82.5 million tonnes. As a result, Chinas wind power development has been held up as a model of successful CDM application, and these projects have become popular low-risk options in international carbon markets.
