International Climate Technology Innovation Intiative: Structure and Strategy

 By Clean Energy Group, Meridian Institute and Center for European Policy Studies, December 2009

This paper recommends “how” an international technology collaboration could be structured. It proposes using “virtual” and low cost “distributed innovation” and Internet-based tools to accelerated technology cooperation and change – in the same way most major corporations today create collaborative products with partners outside their companies. It argues that climate policy makers should use these corporate strategies in climate, and accelerate global product development in low carbon technologies at a scale and in the time frames needed for stabilization – and to do so using new structures outside the existing institutions. This is a joint paper with the Meridian Institute and the Center for European Policy Studies.
