Advances in Solar Photovoltaics
Against the pressing challenges of climate change and fossil fuel depletion, renewable energy sources such as solar photovoltaics (PV) are considered a clean and sustainable alternative. PV technologies have grown into a substantial field of research and development through large stocks of scientific publications and patents. doi: 10.1016/j.rser.2019.109383
The technological system of production and innovation
From less than 1% in 2003 to a market share of 60% since 2011! How China has become the world’s leader in solar photovoltaics? What was the effectiveness of western punitive policies throughout the ‘solar wars’? This recent research paper tells the interesting story of production, innovation, policy and environment.
Paths of technology upgrading in the BRICS economies
This paper explores technology upgrading of BRICS economies based on a three-pronged approach, which distinguishes between the intensity of technology upgrading, structural change and global interaction. We develop a statistical framework based on patent indicators to measure technological upgrading and apply it to BRICS economies in the period 1980–2015.
Drifting towards innovation
Since 2008, China has become the dominant force in solar cell production in the world. But what about technological development and innovation? This paper contributes to a better understanding of the accumulation process of indigenous innovation capabilities in emerging economies.
