  1. Introduction

This Annex sets out our findings in relation to the current status of implementation of the IPP Principles in the Shanghai region of China. Where appropriate and possible, we have indicated the nature of the difficulties facing improved implementation in the future.


This report is based on research carried out in the period January-May 2000, including interviews in April 2000.
There is a range of issues making the situation in the Shanghai region particularly complex. These include:


  • The application of both national and municipal law to the development of IPPs in the Shanghai region has meant that most issues require an investigation of the law, policy and practice at both the central and municipal levels.

  • Most foreign IPPs and all BOT-type IPPs are not located in Shanghai. Some information about these IPPs were incorporated in the IPP Report, as they are the examples which best illustrated many of the IPP Principles.

  • Those IPP Principles relating to matters such as securities, insurance, taxation and foreign exchange are the subject of extremely complex and detailed national regulatory regimes which relate to all industries in China, not just the power sector.

  • Some of the IPP Principles deal with regulations or subject matter which have not been widely used in China or in the Shanghai power sector, such as those questions relating to the tender and bid process. Although the subject of regulation, those regulations are very recent and there is a paucity of experience in how the regulatory model might work.

  • Many of the IPP Principles touch upon policies that are either in the experimental stage or are still the subject of ongoing discussion. It is very difficult to obtain verifiable, reliable and comprehensive information about policies and laws that are still in the process of being debated and finalised.

  • Many of the difficulties and problems referred to in implementing the IPP Principles are not a function so much of the regulatory regime in the power sector as of the overall regulatory regime, structure and operation of administration in China as a whole. These are complex issues that in many instances go beyond the scope of a study such as this.

2.1 Recent developments in the Chinese electricity sector 5


Some of impediments to domestic IPPs tapping the domestic and foreign capital markets the stringent and complex requirements for establishment of a company limited by shares and having it listed.More information requiredAlthough there are limitations in the scope and diversity of domestic capital markets, China appears to be taking significant steps to encourage the development of those markets. Difficulties facing the successful development of local capital for IPP projects include:

  • approvals processes for foreign entities seeking to borrow RMB;

  • development of more varied instruments.
