Abstract

Cross-country studies on energy system policies have reached significant potential as a result of renewable energy resources and effects. Here, developments are evaluated especially on different characteristics of countries such as strategies, technological developments and environmental effects of energy. The scope and quality of these studies over China has changed, first of all, in 2001, according to economic studies and the legally protected features of investments in the diversity of renewable energy resources. Utilization of these energy resources was increased by providing various tax incentives to the sectors. The main targets in this direction can be stated as the goal of both maintaining the world leadership position in the field of economy, reducing environmental damage and ending dependence on imports by using the country’s resources. In the research, topics such as the effects/results/developments of China’s strategies and targets were mentioned and certain inferences were made.
