Wind is a flagship RE sector for China, the government is looking into ways to encourage higher CER prices for wind projects and the trend we see so far is wind CER prices increasing. Barring a significant CER demand shortfall in Europe (due to the global economic crisis), this upward trend should continue.

Perhaps the higher prices can be attributed to the "green" image of wind farm projects, but for a CDM compliance buyer wind represents significant risk. In light of the findings you hghlights, can wind projects continue to command premium CDM prices in China?
