The services of the consultants have been completed. The final report (FR) was received in May 2008 and the final workshop was conducted in June 2008. It was agreed to publish the FR as a resource document for international audiences, including other DMC governments, international donors, academic researchers and international NGOs. A publication production consultant and a technical writer were engaged in mid-2009 to assist in polishing the draft document. A national policy and institutional specialist, with environmental background, was also engaged in February 2010 to update the document in line with the new developments in rural biomass energy in China.
The KPS, entitled "Rural Biomass Energy 2020 in the PRC", was formally launched as ADB publication during the Asia Clean Energy Forum on 24 June 2010 and at the Third ASEAN Plus Three Forum on Biomass Energy and China Rural Biomass Energy Technology and Equipment Exhibition in Suzhou on 12-15 July 2010.
