Renewable Energy
Strategy for Western China
Biomass
has long been recognized by rural society as a key energy
source for agriculture, household services and local economic
development. China’s Dalian County in Liaoning province
has pioneered a “4-in-1” strategy for sustainable
use of biomass serving all three needs in a balanced manner.
As depicted in the graph below, this approach links biomass
as soil nutrient with its utilization as a source of gas
for cooking and lighting and as a heat source for small
greenhouses. CEEP is now characterizing the energy, economic,
environmental and health benefits of the “4-in-1”
strategy (supported by the Blue Moon Fund).
