Clean-Tech The Clean-Tech industry encompasses a broad range of products and services, from alternative energy generation to wastewater treatment to more resource-efficient industrial processes. Although some of these industries are very different, all share a common thread: they use new, innovative technology to create products and services that compete favorably on price and performance while reducing humankind's impact on the environment. To be considered "cleantech," products and services must:
Research Targeted Key Clean-Tech Segments and Technology Areas
Executive Summary > Already, the market for cleaner fuels and more efficient devices to improve generation, delivery, and performance now accounts for between 20 percent and 25 percent of all global energy investment. While the cleantech catchword was created only about five years ago, the sector it describes already generates approximately $200 billion a year. The cleantech market is the third largest venture-capital investment category, behind only biotech and software. Not surprisingly, some of cleantech's biggest proponents are the same entrepreneurs behind earlier venture-funded breakthroughs in computing, telecommunications, and the Internet. > The current global market for cleantech products and services is about $284 billion, growing to over $1.3 trillion in 2017. Of this amount more than one-third ($467 billion) is attributable to renewable energy sources, such as biofuels, solar, tidal, and wind power. Together these segments are expected to grow from a current value of $104 billion to approximately $467 billion in 2017. > From a growth standpoint, the outlook through 2017 is strong for clean technologies, and is expected to grow at about 16.7% over the next decade. > Since 2001, clean technology's global share of overall venture capital investments has more than doubled. For example, in the United States, clean technology's share of investment increased from 1.4% in 2001 to 5.4% in the first six months of 2007. Similarly, clean technology in Europe has enjoyed robust growth rates, and its share of investment there has increased from 1.6% in 2001 to 4.4% in first half of 2007. > Universities, national laboratories, and the commercial sector (both national and international businesses) continue to increase investment in clean technologies for air pollution control, vehicle power, industrial and residential power, environmental remediation, and many other applications. > Governments around the globe have identified cleantech as both a key economic driver in the next century and as a social and moral responsibility. The Kyoto Protocol and similar international agreements are driving governments to enact far-reaching legislation to support and expand the use of green and clean technologies, from automotive engines to electricity production and air pollution. The European Union tends to lead the world in terms of regulatory oversight in this area, but the United States and Japan are also very active. As a rapidly emerging economy, China has a particular need to engage cleantech, but is lagging in terms of governmental oversight, basic R&D and commercial development.
