1 Introduction

On the basis of detailed analysis on current environmental situation and quality of the

project area, detailed explanation and specific arrangements has been made in this

plan regarding to such issues as staffing of the environment management institutions

of the project, environmental protection measures to be taken, efficiency monitoring

of the ecological environment to be carried out, procedure and record of the voluntary

participation of general public, necessary training of relevant personnel on

environmental management knowledge and technology and budget for expenses of

the environmental management activities in order to guide the environmental

management work of the project.

1.1 Purpose of EIA/EMP

The purpose of establishing ELA/EMP is to formulate a set of technically feasible,

financially sustainable and operable environmental solutions targeting on the

unavoidable environmental impact in the project. These solutions will be applied

during the construction and implementation of the project, so as to maximally reduce

the project’s negative impact on society and environment, and to solve the remaining

environmental problems through these solutions.

The function of ELA/EMP is to list the environmental solutions, monitoring and

institutional measures that will be adopted during the construction and operation of

the project and put forward specific approaches to implement these measures, so as to

avoid or control the negative impact of the project on the environment. EMP will be

an important link between the environmental solutions and measures defined in the

environmental impact and environmental assessment, so that the purpose of

environmental solutions will be achieved through the approaches of EMP.

1.2 Background

Fossil energy is a type of limited and unrenewable resource, which has serious impact

on the environment, e.g. excessive emission of greenhouse gases, global warming,

serious deterioration of regional climate and ecological environment, and poses great

threat on the mankind in the future. Therefore, sustainability of energy is one of the

primarily concerned issues by the world leaders in modern times.

The sharp conflicts between supply and demand of energy in China will not be

addressed at least until 2050, when China becomes a moderately developed country.

However, carbon-free and low-carbon energy system is required to be urgently

established in the current sustainable development situation of energy. Therefore, all

kinds of renewable energy shall be developed in a planned way according to the local

conditions based on different stages of technological development. The combination


4

of solar energy and a variety of fossil fuels shall be considered so as to achieve the

complementation of renewable energy and fossil energy. The study on solar energy

and thermochemistry shall be attached importance, and new cycling technology of

solar thermal power generation shall be adopted to enhance the efficiency of power

generation. By establishing complete carbon-free, low-carbon energy and economic

system, we shall solve the energy and environmental problems that contain China’s

economic and social development so as to enable China to lead the world in the

energy science and technology.

When used in combination with the energy storage devices, solar thermal power

generation has already become an important way of uninterrupted power supply

through renewable energy. With the technological progress and large-scaled

production of components, solar thermal power generation has the potential to

challenge with thermal power generation in cost. It is the only ideally alternative way

for us to turn the challenge into opportunity and actively develop the renewable solar

energy generation, so as to achieve a diversified pattern of energy supply in China.

Solar thermal power generation is economically efficient, develops rapidly worldwide

and enjoys a promising prospect of large-scaled application and important strategic

position. With regard to its strategic height and prospective of sustainable

development, it is a wise decision and inevitable option for China to develop solar

thermal power generation. Speeding up the development of solar power generation

involves such important issues as the future’s energy security of China and the world,

harmonious and coordinative development of energy and environment and the

sustainable development of energy. It will contribute to relieving the pressure of

energy and environment that China faces in the world and enhancing the international

status and impact of our country in the world. Therefore, massively developing the

solar power market and expanding the scope of application will be conducive to

lowering the cost of power generation and improving the power generation structure,

in which coal power is the main power

China’s “Development Planning for the ‘11th

Five-year-plan’ on Renewable Energy”

clearly states:

“We shall select the appropriate areas in the flat deserts of the Ordos highland of

Inner Mongolia along the Yellow River, flat deserts of the Hexi Corridor of Gansu

province, Hami Prefecture of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Lhasa of Tibet or

surrounding areas of Beijing, carry out pilot test of solar thermal power generation,

which has a total installed capacity of about 50,000 kilowatt.”“Key field and area of

solar thermal power generation: setting up 50,000 kilowatt (the planned target) of

solar thermal power generation in Inner Mongolia.”

In order to fully utilize the rich solar power resources of Inner Mongolia, promote the

technological progress of solar thermal power generation and enhance its economic

benefit and industrial development, in January 2007, National Development and

Reform Commission issued the energy document No.[2007]164“Reply letter on

approval of the General Office of National Development and Reform Commission in

carrying out the preliminary work of the demonstrative project of solar thermal power

generation by Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region”(Attachment 1)

The May 2007 NFG energy document No. [2007]124“Reply letter on relevant matters

of carrying out preliminary work of the project of 50,000 kilowatt Trough solar

thermal power generation by Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region”(Attachment 2)

was issued by the Development and Reform Commission of the Inner Mongolia

Autonomous Region.

In March 2010, under the approval of the National Energy Bureau, demonstrative

trough solar thermal power generation plant with an installed capacity of 50MW was

set up in Balagong town of Hangjin banner of Ordos city of Inner Mongolia

autonomous region. Franchise bidding was adopted in selecting qualified investors

from home and abroad.

China Datang Corporation Renewable Power Co., Limited won the bid in the

international open bidding of the project in January 2011 and acquired the authority of

investment and management of China’s first 50MW trough solar thermal power

generation plant. It takes the responsibility of establishing the project company, which

will be in charge of the designing, investing, constructing, operating and maintaining

of the project, dismantling the production facilities of the power plant and resuming

the pre-construction status upon expiration of the franchise management.

The proposed construction scale of the demonstrative project of 50MW trough solar

thermal power generation of Inner Mongolia is 50MW with the installation of turbine

generator set of 1×50MW and the construction of one booster station of 110kV in the

power plant.

planned to start construction in 2013 and put into operation in 2015 with a

construction period of 30 months and an operational period of 25 years. The annual

on-grid energy will be 122.63 million kWh.

Major equipment for the project of Trough solar thermal power generation is solar

collector. One booster station of 110kV will be constructed as well as conduction oil

zone (main pumping station of conduction oil, tank site and auxiliary pumping station

of conduction oil) and main plant (steam engine room, deoxygenizing room and

oil-water heat exchange room).Necessary living infrastructure and roads will be

constructed and the unused space in the plant will be designed to be green land. Direct

air cooling system shall be adopted in the turbine cooling. air required for cooling will

be supplied by fans.

2.2Regional Layout of the Construction

The demonstrative project of 50MW Trough solar thermal power generation of

Inner Mongolia is planned to be constructed in Balagong town of HangjinBanner.

Located in the new energy development zone about 6 km southeast of Balagong town

in Hangjin Banner, this project boasts high value in developing and utilizing the solar

energy.

West site field is the road belonging to the plant zone, and also used as entry

access into the project. North site field is also the road belonging to the plant; east and

south site fields are wasteland. Mostsite are unused land (sandlot), non-ecological

protected areas and non-migratory bird habitat and uninhabited area by human kind

with sparse ground vegetation and occasionally roaming hares and rodents.

In this project, 50MWsolar thermal power generation plant will be newly

constructed, occupying an area of 1,832,000m2, and energy storage facilities will be

constructed during the same period.

The power plant will be divided into two districts: heat collecting district and

power generating district. The power generating district is arranged at the center in the

southern part of the entire power plant, and the layout from north to south has a triple

pattern as follows: conduction oil zone—main plant(air cooling platform)—110kV

booster station. The main power plant is located at central left of the power generating

district. The conduction oil zone is located in the north of the main plant. The layout

of conduction oil zone from west to east is main pumping station of conduction oil,


12

underground oil discharge pit of tank site, auxiliary pumping station of conduction oil,

etc. The energy storage facilities are arranged at the extreme north of the power

generating district.

south of the steam engine room at row A on the ground of outside, with 110kV

outlet lines towards south.

Such buildings as Chemical water workshop, integrated pump house, cooling

tower for auxiliary equipment and centralized wastewater treatment room are

arranged at the east of the main plant, forming the water utilities zone of the power

plant, which will be easy for centralized management; and forming a reasonable

working process so that the pipelines inside and outside the plant are briefly and

smoothly connected.

The complex building is at the south of the plant with good day lighting, broad

vision and easy access to transportation facilities and easy for integrated

management, providing a good environment for the plant staff to work and relax

Designed by professionals on the basis of international experience and on-spot

survey, the general layout of the power plant is rationally distributed and easy for the

integrated management and can produce optimally economic benefits.

⑴ Climate

The climate of Hangjin Banner, where the project is located, is characterized by

typical temperate and semi-arid plateau continental climate and subject to the current

control of Siberia and outer Mongolian Plateau most of the year, with an annual

average temperature of 6.8℃. The average temperature of January is -11.8℃ and

the extreme low temperature is -32℃. The average temperature of July is 22.1℃

and the extreme high temperature is 38.7℃. The temperature descends from east to

west due to the terrain type. The sunshine hours on average for many years are

3,193h.

Hangjin Banner is dry and short of rain, and rainfall amount of the whole area

descents from east to west with the rainfall amount of 245mm on average for years.

60% of the rainfall is often happened in July to September in Summer with an average

evaporation of 2,720mm for many years, a relative humidity of 49% and a dryness of

1.98. The wind speed is generally high with an annual average speed of 3.0m/s. In

spring we often see such wind speed as high as 28.7m/s, which is accompanied by

sandstorm weather. The average frost-free period is 155 days and depth of soil

freezing for many years is 1.5m.

The solar thermal power plant is located in the southwest of Hangjin Banner of

Ordos city, which enjoys similar climate with Dengkou County’s Weather Station,

which is about 8 km northwest of the plant and classified into the same climate

region with the former. See Table 3.1-1 and breeze rose diagram 3.1-1according to

4.2.3 Risk-prevention measures

(1) The general arrangement is designed in strict compliance with relevant

standards, featuring fire compartments based seriously on types and fire-resisting

levels of process units and buildings to satisfy requirement on fire-prevention space

and safe evacuation. Store tank area is surrounded by ring-shaped fire passages for

fire-fighting vehicles. Fire compartments are set up based on the fire risk and

fire-resisting level of all buildings (structures) in the area, with all necessary facilities

such as fire-proof doors and windows and explosion-proof wall.A set of fire-alarm

system is designed, which include a fire-alarm panel board in the control room, a

fire-alarm repeater plate in the fire station, an explosion-proof type manual alarm

button or commonly-seen alarm button in processing units area, temperature-sensing

cables in large oil can area, and a temperature-sensing/smoke-sensing detector in the

control room, switchboard room, warehouse and other places.

(2)Using techniques to design precautionary measures for safety assurance: the

conduction oil system is an enclosed kind which will store inflammable & explosive

and combustible materials in closed equipment and pipes when they are under

reaction, with all joints being reliably air proof. The process control system contains

an out-of-limit alarm to ensure all hazardous materials all alone under safety control


39

in case of incorrect manipulation or under abnormal conditions. Naked fire, hot

surface, electric sparks, electrostatic spark and ignition sources like impulsive force

and friction shall come under good control in the course of design and production; and

control measures shall also be strictly taken to ensure the discharge, exhaust and

safety relief of flammable fuels in an enclosed system. The safety interlock and

fire&air monitoring system is designed to ensure safety in production, long-term

operation of process units in order and without accidents, and the safety of processing

units and operators under regular production and even when accidents happen. As per

relevant standards, Safety Instrumented Systems （SIS）is to be installed for interlock

protection of equipment and units. Fire & air monitoring system are used to monitor

the on-site combustible gas, poisonous gas and fire-alarm signal.

(3)Important monitoring areas must have a combustible gastest detector of

catalytic combustion kind which are better able to make an acousto-optic alarm on the

site, and a poisonous gastest detector of electrochemistry kind capable of making an

acousto-optic alarm on the site. Combustible gas and poisonous gas detecting

instruments and the fire-alarm detecting instrument shall be designed with an

independent F&GS system which contains trouble-removal plans concerning fire,

explosion and poisoning, as well as a trouble-removal system.

In addition to the rescue routeways in the storage, loading, unloading and office

areas, there are also rescue facilities, exit passageways and refuges.

4.2.4 Emergency plans

In accordance with National Environmental Emergency Plan (Jan. 24, 2006) and

relevant laws, rules &regulations and standards, formulation and management of

emergency plans are required and such requirement shall be followed by project

owner and contractor. See Table 4.2-1 for accidents emergency organization structure

and 4.2-2 for dealing procedure in case of an emergency.

5 Environmental Benefits Analysis

5.1 Energy-saving and Electricity-incrmitigationMitigation Benefits

The installed gross capacity of this project is 50MW. Upon the completion of

this project, the annual on-grid electricity will be 122,630,000kW·h. According to

the statistics at the end of 2010, the standard coal consumption for Power Supply in

the coal-fired power plants across China was 333g/kWh on average. Based on this

Table, approx. 49,542t of standard coal will be saved each year after this project is

put into use. Therefore, this project plays a good energy-saving and

electricity-incrmitigationMitigation role.

5.2 Emission-reduction Benefits

According to the content of the local coals: Sar：0.81%；Car：43.21%；

Aar：31.70% (regardless of power plant desulphurization and dedusting efficiency,

99.3%), the emission-reducing amount will be approximately 864t/a of SO2,

133t/a of smoke, 10.5×104t/a of CO2 and 203t/a of NOx, which brings remarkable

benefits to the environment.

The construction of power plant rather than coal-fired power plant will

substantially reduce the pollution to the environment and will play a role of utilizing

renewable natural resources, saving non-renewable fossil energy, reducing pollution

and protecting the ecological environment.

It is clear that the development of solar resources and solar power will not only

save the precious non-renewable resources, but also bring good benefits to the

environment, thus it serves as an important means for realizing the sustainable

development of energy, economy and society.
