FiT for Distributed Solar Projects:•Price of electricity generated and used by owners themselves = local electricity price + 0.42 Yuan (7 U.S. cents)/KWh•Price of surplus electricity feed back to the grid = coal-fire power price + 0.42 Yuan /KWh

Regions
Solar Radiation Level I 0.9
Ningxia; Haixi in Qinghai; Jiayuguan, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan,
Dunhuang, Jinchang in Gansu; Hami, Tacheng, Altai, Karamy in
Xinjiang; Inner Mogolia (excluding Chifeng, Tongliao, Hinggan,
Hulunbuir)
Solar Radiation Level II 0.95
Beijing; Tianjin; Heilongjiang; Jilin; Liaoning; Sichuan; Yunnan;
Chifeng, Tongliao, Hinggan, Hulunbuir in Inner Mogolia; Chengde,
Zhangjiakou, Tangshan, Qinhuangdao in Hebei; Datong, Shuozhou,
Xinzhou in Shanxi; Yulin, Yan'an in Shaan'xi; regions in Qinghai,
Gansu, Xinjiang that are not in Solar Radiation Level I
Solar Radiation Level III 1 All other regions
Note: Benchmark FiT in Tibet will be made separately.
The new FiT, scheduled to last 20 years, will apply to all PV projects registered after September 1, 2013. Those registered before
September 2013 and connected to the grid by the end of 2013 will enjoy the previously universal FiT of 1 Yuan (16 U.S. cents) per
KWh. The distributed PV projects get a subsidy of 0.42 Yuan (7 U.S. cents) per KWh generated.
Financial Leverage
•Bank
•Fund
Investment refers to a commercial
activity or process that uses valuable
resources or assets in a project or
activity to obtain economic returns.
Financing refers to the variety of
methods that an enterprise uses to
raise funds from financial institutions or
financial intermediaries.
PV Power Stations performance AssessmentInvestment & Financing
Under current policy in China, ground-mounted or distributed solar projects can
achieve a 10% or higher ROI for 20-25 years by adopting financial leverage. In Fujian
province, for example, the IRR of a distributed solar project can be 18% or more by
leveraging.

Construction Risks
Construction quality is an essential factor for the smooth operation of a PV power plant. Most ground
mounted PV power stations in China are located in the northwest desert area, which includes dry land and high soil
resistivity. It is difficult to maintain ground resistance under 4 ohms in this area. When ground resistance in a PV
field is high, it will directly affect the operation of inverters and communication networks, sometimes even leading to
an explosion of the inverters. The fabrication of HV cable terminals is also crucial because northwestern China has
significant wind and dust. If dust enters the cable terminals during fabrication, it may cause hidden troubles for the
safe operation of cable terminals.

Clenergy is committed to providing products with stable performance and reliable quality and professional and
cost-effective solutions for our partners. Clenergy's design and development team provides comprehensive
solutions that factor in a full evaluation of the natural factors around the construction site (e.g., meteorological
conditions such as typhoons, rainstorms and snowfall as well as geological conditions) to lower equipment
risks for our customers.
PV-ezRack Mounting Systems Resist Natural Disasters
& Reduce Risks for Customers
Clenergy’s PV-ezRack Mounting System withstands super typhoons in Hainan
Clenergy provided a mounting solution for a 20MW solar power plant in mountainous Ledong,
China, that optimized the supporting structure design and that used high-quality carbon steel to
further enhance the system strength. After completion, the project was hit by two typhoons, a pair
of natural disasters that Clenergy’s PV-ezRack mounting system survived essentially intact.

Clenergy’s PV-ezRack Mounting System withstands
tornados in Australia
When a series of tornados ripped through the Queensland city of Bundaberg,
Australia on January 26, 2013, a PV-ezRack SolarTerrace III solar power system
from Clenergy survived with only minimum damage.
