Observations in China
China has very large market potential The
economy is growing The government is committed
to increasing ST capabilities to high
level Growing investments are being put into
supporting research and ST infrastructure China
is a difficult market and research environment,
takes time to learn Most (if not all) major
western countries are speeding up their ST
activities in China

Some China RD Statistics

• Chinas share of world RD expenditure is about
  1.5
• In 2000 Chinas total RD expenditure was about
  2.5 times the size of Finland. Chinas
  expenditure is around the size of Sweden or
  Holland and growing.
• Chinas RD expenditure in 2000 under the
  national 9th Five Year Plan (1995-2001) totalled
  about 90 billion Yuan (EUR 10 billion)
• RD expenditures are heavy on development
  (77.8), while lighter of basic research (5.2)
• 10 of Chinas high tech exports are based on
  original Chinese innovations.
• Over 40 of university RD is financed by the
  enterprise sector.
• Basic research 4.67 billion Yuan (EUR 0.52 bn,
  5.2)
• Applied research 15.21 billion Yuan (EUR 1.69
  bn, 17)
• Development 69.72 billion Yuan (EUR 7.76 bn,
  77.8)
• National Institutes 25.82 bn yuan, (EUR 2.87
  bn, 28.8 ) (8.3 increase)
• Universities 7.66 bn yuan, (EUR
  0.85 bn, 8.6) (20.9 increase)
• Companies 54.06 bn yuan, (EUR 6.01
  bn, 60.3) (23.9 increase)
• Figures differ according to source, and may
  change due to the countrys fast development
• as well as exchange rate fluctuations.

Thoughts on Distributed Energy Systems

• BEIJING, SHANGHAI, GUANGDONG
• These are all places where energy technology
  research is conducted, and where levels of
  pollution are high.
• URBAN CHINA
• Cities are growing and modernizing fast. Urban
  China could become a major field for high-quality
  small energy systems applications.
• RURAL CHINA
• Rural China is one of the major application
  fields for small energy systems the government
  is investing a lot into developing rural
  infrastructure.
• The Chinese are interested in creating
  partnerships between foreign technology and
  Chinese production.
• Tekes energy delegation visited China in October
  2002.

  Laine and Frost Sullivan)

Some Energy Research Programs in China

• Energy research programs and budgets
• Chinas NSFC gives funding for energy
  conservation and emission reduction (basic)
  research boilers, gas turbine, diesel engine
  etc.
• 973 program has two large projects internal
  combustion engine and sulphur reduction. It also
  has an energy saving program.
• 863 program includes clean coal and new energy
  sources such as fuel cells.
• Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), State
  Development and Planning Commission (SDPC), State
  Economic and Trade Commission (SETC) together
• Program on New and Renewable Energy Development
  in China (1996-2010).
• 13.4 million hectares of fuel wood plantation
• 4 billion cubic meters of biogas supply to 12.35
  million households
• 117GWh electricity from small hydro
• 4.67 mtce of solar energy
• 1000-1100MW of wind power capacity
• 50 MW of tidal power capacity
• Photovoltaic program, which is known as the
  Sunlight Program, running up to 2010
• Upgrade country's manufacturing capacity of
  polycrystalline and other advanced silicon
  technologies establish large scale PV and
  PV/hybrid village power demonstration systems,
  home-PV projects for remote areas initiate
  grid-connected PV projects.
• Brightness Program
• instituted by the SDPC through the bilateral and
  multilateral assistance aiming to install several
  solar and wind power systems in the northwest
  part of China.
• Ride the Wind Program (also know as Chengfeng
  Program)
• A bilateral co-operation program, has already
  installed a total of 110 MW wind turbines in
  various parts of the country by the end of 1998.
