--- Sign-up ceremony for Badaling solar thermal experimental power plant land contract
 
Sign-up ceremony for Badaling solar thermal experimental power plant land contract was held in Investment Bureau of Yanqing Country, Beijing on March 24, 2008. VIPs from both sides were present at the ceremony, from Institute of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IEE-CAS), they are: Mr. Honghua Xu, Vice director of IEE-CAS, Mrs. ZHifeng Liu, chief of financial affairs and assets section of IEE, Prof. Zhifeng Wang, general team leader of solar thermal power project, Mr. Jixin Shao, leader of preparatory team of the project, Mr. Xiaobing Liu, superintendent of experimental base; from Yanqing county, they are: Mr. Fuchen Tang, assistant of county head, Mr. Xiaoguang Liu, director general of investment bureau, Mr. shuangsuo Zhang, supervisor of Badaling town.

From that moment, IEE-CAS has obtained the land for power plant and experimental base that covers 236.8mu [mu,Chinese unit of area (1/15 of a hectare)]. This moment also represents that Badaling solar thermal demo power plant has drawn the prologue for its full construction.
Since 2006 to now, land issue has been one of the key steps in the project of Badaling solar thermal power plant. Scientific research is different from other investment actions for there’s no expenditure in terms of land in the national fund for this. With the situation of tight research outlay, directors from each side have endeavored to solve the problem of plant use land. From the view of protecting the farmer’s number one, members from administrative office of Yanqing County had been consulting and asking for instructions from the national and Beijing Municipal government, and communicating with the villagers who possess the land. Finally they helped IEE-CAS solve the tough problem of land according to national policies and regulations, which accelerates the step of power plant construction.
