Strategic Path of China's Low-carbon Technology Development

There are a great deal of discussions and questions on how to establish and develop low-carbon economy, not excepting China. In order to provide suggestions and countermeasure, this paper considers that every country must masters key elements of the low-carbon system so as to promote it in a proper way. All elements in the huge lowcarbon economy system are operating cooperatively, however, low-carbon technology is indispensable because it provides strategic sustention for low-carbon economy, especially in developing countries. Proceed from China's actual conditions, by introducing the significance of low-carbon technology, this paper expounds the most key and emergent low-carbon technologies, i.e., clean coal technology and CCS(carbon capture and storage) technology. Furthermore, proposes the strategic path of low-carbon technology system in China, and suggests that related departments of the state should place coal gasification technology or polygeneration in combination with CCS at the heart of China's low-carbon technology strategy.
