China's policy initiatives for the development of wind energy technology

Abstract: Public policy has played an important role in the development of wind energy technology. However, compared to the rich literature on the supporting mechanisms for frontrunner countries, little research has focused on the latecomers, especially regarding the catch-up and take-over process. The key policy initiatives that would enable latecomers to fulfil their technology leapfrogging goals are also unclear. Using the empirical setting of the Chinese wind energy market, four phases of technology development base… Show more

“…In the extant literature, studies show that China's wind power industry is constrained by factors such as institutional barriers, grid integration problems, and technological weaknesses [9][10][11][12][13]. Firstly, the wind power industry in China is heavily controlled by state-owned enterprise, influenced by government policy decision, and characterized as an incomplete electricity market.…”

“…Other parts of government were more concerned with enabling Chinese enterprises to catch up with the technological leaders and building industries that would make the wind turbines and solar panels (Dai and Xue 2015). To build up production and innovation capabilities, the government introduced a raft of policies that complemented the Renewable Energy Law.…”

“…In most accounts the state is seen as the central actor, pushing policies through the formulation and implementation stages in a top-down fashion (Gilley 2012;Dai and Xue 2015;Lewis 2013). While the role of local government in implementation and the power dynamics between central and local levels receive some attention, the policy process is assumed to be largely, if not entirely, state led.…”

“…Freeman, 1997;Lundvall, 1992). More recently, authors in the climate policy field have extended this work to focus on NSIs and technological capability building as ways in which climate technology development and transfer has and can be achieved (see, e.g., Dai & Xue, 2014;Hansen & Ockwell, 2014;Ockwell & Mallett, 2012;Rennkamp & Boyd, 2013;Sagar, Bremner, & Grubb, 2009;Tawney, Miller, & Bazilian, 2013;Watson, Byrne, Ockwell, & Stua, 2014). …”
