Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the several methodologies and activities taken to assess the environmental impacts of a 33 million pilot project undertaken through a loan from the Asian Development Bank ADB jointly with significant Chinese government investments. The ADB biogas utilization project has supported construction of over 7,500 biogas digesters in more than 140 rural villages. An additional 10,000 biogas digesters are programmed as well as significant investment in biogas production through largescale animal agribusinesses. The latter will be supported through investments utilizing the Clean Development Mechanism CDM. Designmethodologyapproach The paper provides a longitudinal perspective by looking at the project's Initial Environmental Examination IEE undertaken at appraisal assessing the ongoing energy and environmental monitoring plan currently under way and examining the potential for the use of Strategic Environmental Assessment SEA as a tool for integrating environmental policy considerations on a regional or provincial level in China. Findings Improved technologies for application of renewable energy in particular successful application and adoption of biogas digesters at the village level offer the potential to promote sustainable, costeffective growth in agriculture with concurrent positive environmental impacts. Practical implications Based on the relative success of ongoing efforts to promote the adoption of biomass technologies, a significant expansion of the bioenergy program is under consideration by the Ministry of Agriculture. Originalityvalue The case study suggests that there is potential for use of SEA as a tool for the establishment of regional or provincial environmental priorities by taking account of information on the economic, social and environmental benefits, costs and risks of adopting a national strategy for biomass utilization. SEA is a recent innovation in China and must be adapted to local conditions.
