This presentation highlights the transfer of climate change mitigation (CCM) technologies to non-Annex 1 countries based on patent data. It focuses on examples like wind power and explores factors driving technology transfer. The research provides empirical evidence on global technology transfer patterns using innovative methodologies.

The Transfer of Climate Change Mitigation (CCM) Technologies to non-Annex 1 Countries: Evidence Based on Patent Data. Presentation by Nick Johnstone OECD Environment Directorate (www.oecd.org/environment/innovation) at Policy Coherence for Development Focal Points Meeting OECD - Oct. 1st, 2010
Intl. Transfer of CC Mitigation Techs: Example of Wind Power The figure shows extent of transfer from Annex I to non-Annex I countries. Transfer is measured as the relationship between source country of inventions (‘priority’ office) and other countries in which protection of the intellectual property has been sought (‘duplicate’ office). See ENV/EPOC/WPNEP(2009)1/FINAL for methodology (www.oecd.org/environment/innovation).
What Is Driving Transfer?The Case of Wind Power The histogram shows the relative importance of different determinants of transfer of wind power technologies, from Annex I to non-Annex I countries.
