- Meanwhile, China, the world's largest energy consumer, has strategically set its sights on shale gas, but lacks a competitive technological edge.
- How has Chinese investment affected US technology development?
- Usha Haley, Barton Distinguished Chair, Wichita State University, and principal investigator, provided answers through her National Science Foundation funded research on "Technology Development, Strategic Risk and National Policy: The Impact of Chinese State-Capitalist Investments in US Shale Gas".
- The results uncover statistically significant shifts in technology ownership and innovation, with China dominating green-patenting activity, and Chinese investors increasingly dictating trajectories of green-technology development in US shale gas.
