Today's Pick: China's green potential

A new report says China’s green-tech market could reach $1 trillion by 2013. Published by the China Greentech Initiative, a collaboration of over 80 of the world’s leading technology and service companies, entrepreneurs, investors, NGOs and policy advisors, the China Greentech Report 2009 attempts to define green technology market opportunities in China and identify the solutions that will contribute to building a sustainable China and world.

125 green-tech solutions, both existing and emerging, in seven sectors — conventional energy, renewable energy, electric power infrastructure, green building, transportation, industry and water — are examined for their potential environmental impact and commercialization potential.

With business heavyweights such as Alstom, bp, Cisco, Dell and Westinghouse behind this initiative, this report is worth reading by anyone involved in the cleantech sector or who is concerned about the environmental challenges confronting China. The risks are indeed high — the report predicts that at current growth rates, China’s CO2 emissions could represent nearly 30% of the world’s total by 2030, with coal responsible for a majority of those emissions for decades to come.

    Interestingly, in Thomas Friedman’s op-ed column (The New Sputnik – http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/27/opinion/27friedman.html) he writes:

    “I believe future historians may well conclude that the most important thing to happen in the last 18 months was that Red China decided to become Green China.”

    Where does this optimism come from? Simply: “China’s leaders have decided to go green” and necessity is the mother of invention.
