Abstract: China is the most populous nation, the largest developing country with relatively high levels of poverty, the fastest-growing economy, and one of the world's most polluted countries. Bearing this in mind, the Chinese central leadership is keen to address environmental and developmental concerns concomitantly and strike a balance between environmental protection and economic development. One way that this can be achieved, in the author's view, is through the development of green technology. Instead of repeating what has been said in the existing literature, this thesis attempts to approach the issue of green technology from a new perspective of law and institutional design, and seeks to stimulate green technological change through the development of a legal system that engages environmental law and patent law in a concerted effort to incentivize the innovation and dissemination of green technology to the greatest extent. This thesis argues that by improving a synergy between the Chinese environmental law and patent law, especially by using the Chinese patent law as an environmental instrument, the innovation and diffusion of green technology can be better promoted. This in turn would contribute to China's environmental improvement without necessarily impeding economic growth or technological progress. Specifically, this thesis puts forward three main ways in which patent law can be used as an environmental tool, i.e., the creation of a rationale governing both environmental law and patent law in a nation's legal regime for including environmental goals in patent law, environmental law's adoption of patent system as an environmental regulatory tool, and the "greening" of patent law. This so-called"three-step approach," in conjunction with the proposed specific provisions, measures or mechanisms developed under each of the three approaches, will constitute a theoretically effective legal framework and can be used as criteria for assessing the Chinese law's effectiveness in synergizing environmental law with patent law and using patent law as an environmental instrument. A total of 28 aspects and sub-aspects of the Chinese law have been examined against the proposed criteria, with a total of 31 points awarded. A notable gap exists between the Chinese law and the proposed theoretically effective law because had all the aspects and sub-aspects of the Chinese law fully met the criteria, the total score would have been 84 points other than 31 points. It is worth noting that such an assessment of the Chinese law is not conducted alone, but on the basis of a comparison with the counterparts of the US and European laws, which makes the evaluation of the Chinese law more meaningful and accurate and helps to identify lessons from the experience of the US and EU. Based on such vertical and horizontal comparisons, this thesis raises specific proposals for China's legislative reform, with a view to synergizing the Chinese environmental law with patent law and using the Chinese patent law as an environmental instrument.

Download or read book The Power of Renewables written by Chinese Academy of Engineering and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-01-29 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States and China are the world's top two energy consumers and, as of 2010, the two largest economies. Consequently, they have a decisive role to play in the world's clean energy future. Both countries are also motivated by related goals, namely diversified energy portfolios, job creation, energy security, and pollution reduction, making renewable energy development an important strategy with wide-ranging implications. Given the size of their energy markets, any substantial progress the two countries make in advancing use of renewable energy will provide global benefits, in terms of enhanced technological understanding, reduced costs through expanded deployment, and reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions relative to conventional generation from fossil fuels. Within this context, the U.S. National Academies, in collaboration with the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE), reviewed renewable energy development and deployment in the two countries, to highlight prospects for collaboration across the research to deployment chain and to suggest strategies which would promote more rapid and economical attainment of renewable energy goals. Main findings and concerning renewable resource assessments, technology development, environmental impacts, market infrastructure, among others, are presented. Specific recommendations have been limited to those judged to be most likely to accelerate the pace of deployment, increase cost-competitiveness, or shape the future market for renewable energy. The recommendations presented here are also pragmatic and achievable.

Book excerpt: Will China Surpass the United States as an innovation nation? China is tirelessly working to overcome its technological deficiencies by driving R&D initiatives in government and business and adapting Western Internet platforms for domestic use. It is extending its technological reach through a major drive to rival India as a services outsourcing leader and projecting its high-tech brands into the companies and homes of other countries. But whether China succeeds will depend on how it handles such issues as demography, energy dependency, and resource limitations. The environmental challenges posed by China's vast manufacturing sector are well documented, but what isn't widely realized is that China is actually outstripping the West in all manner of green initiatives, renewable energy investments, research and development funding, and other areas essential to improving the health of the planet. However, omnipresent government intervention, environmental degradation, natural resource exhaustion, and other issues threaten to derail China’s rise to superpower status. As the country meets global challenges on a scale that few nations can match, China Fast Forward takes a look at what lies ahead and why China’s success is important to us all. In this book, Bill Dodson explores China's reincarnation from a closed, agrarian nation into a modern, high-tech superpower bent on literally cleaning up its act. Presents an on-the-ground survey and analysis of China's renewable and clean energy sector that identifies the kinds of projects and technologies Chinese enterprises and local governments are hungry for Includes a discussion on how successful Chinese companies are developing their brands to go head-to-head with the world’s best-known companies Discusses how central government conflicts of interest are actually foiling corporate and official drives to innovation across a range of sectors Taking a look inside China's march toward becoming a sustainable superpower through innovation, China Fast Forward presents a balance sheet of the country's technological and social progress on its path to becoming a world leader.

Thus, the work examined the literatures enlisted in the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) on the topics of GTI from 1994 to 2019. Some critical discussion and conclusion are sighted as follows: (1) the research of GTI in China is getting mature compared to the energy-innovation related topics and the researches 10 years ago. It is becoming a dominated research subject. (2) The qualitative publications dominates the researches, the empirical researches are in a shortage. (3) The research subjects are multi-perspective and multi-disciplinary, covering environment science, management, energy and fuels, economics and social behavior. New vibrancy of advanced theoretical and methodological research is particularly needed. (4) The trend of green technology research appears an interdisciplinary research with the themes related to environmental subject, science technology, business economics, engineering and energy & fuels. (5) Different policy implementations have different effects due to the cost structure and maturity of renewable energy. (6) GTI cannot be isolated from the policy or regulation regime, and is becoming a new underpin of current sustainable development in China.
