This paper explores how China enhances its innovation capacity for the development of wind energy, with particular reference to the role of government-industry-university relations。 Drawing on the comparative study of the three provinces, Xinjiang, Shanghai and Guangdong, this paper has two major findings。 First, the three provinces, although are embedded in the same national technological innovation system, have revealed contrasting models of government-industry-university collaboration as they developed wind energy in recent years。 Xinjiang appears to adopt a hierarchical model in which the central government has played a pivotal role in contributing to the achievements of Goldwind -one of the leading domestic wind turbine manufacturers。 In contrast, Shanghai’s model is a highly institutionalized one -a more sophisticated innovation system has integrated with the resourceful Shanghai Electric to develop the wind energy industry。 On the other hand, Guangdong has adopted a market model。 The recent launch of the Enterprises’ Science and Technology Commissioners Action Plan in Guangdong emphasizes on the creation of a level playing field for a larger number of potential market players rather than picking the winner。Our second finding is that while these different collaborative relations have enhanced the innovative capacity for wind energy in the provinces, there are some collaborative limits。 Many of the public services for the wind energy industry have not been adequately developed。 The Xinjiang and Shanghai models appear to pick the winners and only a limited number of firms can benefit from these collaborations。This paper concludes by suggesting that a new focus of the policies for wind energy in China in the near future would be providing incentives for provinces to mobilize local resources, cultivate locally based networks, and build up local innovation capacity。
