Conceptualizing leapfrogging with spatially coupled innovation systems: The case of onsite wastewater treatment in China (2012, methodology): “A major inquiry within this realm is whether NICs will be able to jump over (leapfrog) conventional, carbon-intensive development steps and directly implement radical system alternatives that are ecologically, economically and socially more sustainable [3, 6, 8-11].”
Key policy considerations for facilitating low carbon technology transfer to developing countries (2008, background): “Whilst hybrid cars utilise two existing technologies, the internal combustion engine and battery-driven electric motors, the combination of these technologies in the production of a new, significantly more energy-efficient vehicle could be seen as representing a radical innovation (Gallagher, 2006).”
Solar Energy in Sub-Saharan Africa: The Challenges and Opportunities of Technological Leapfrogging (2015, background): “necessarily replicate the traditional technological development path of advanced countries, but rather skip some stages and even create their own paths to establish competence in new and growing industries (Gallagher, 2006; Goldemberg, 1998; Hobday, 1995; Lee & Lim, 2001; Liu, Cheng & Chen, 2011; Mu”
Environmental Regulation and the Cross-Border Diffusion of New Technology: Evidence from Automobile Patents (2015, unknown): “…manufacturers characteristically “engineer” vehicles according to domestic standards in any one particular market in which they are sold, even though variants of the same model may be sold in other markets configured to higher/lower emission standards (Bauner, 2007; Gallagher, 2006; Perkins, 2007).”
Do Political Connections Buffer Firms from or Bind Firms to the Government? A Study of Corporate Charitable Donations of Chinese Firms (2016, unknown): “Without government permission, privately controlled firms cannot enter such industries (Gallagher 2006).”
CO2 mitigation scenarios in China’s road transport sector (2007, background): “Gallagher [24] believes that the vehicle technologies China should consider adopting are hybrid electric or fuel cell vehicles (FCVs), yet comparatively speaking, FCVs are still in the R&D stage and are not yet available commercially.”
Green chemistry and green engineering in China: drivers, policies and barriers to innovation (2012, background): “Concerns about intellectual property protection prevent many firms from selling or licensing green technologies to Chinese firms (Sims-Gallagher, 2006).”
