China Clean Energy Research produces the world's first first

Our newspaper, Beijing, September 8th (Reporter Zhang Lei) The latest published "Nature" additional "Natural Index-Energy", focusing on the research related to the "clean and affordable energy (SDG7)" of the United Nations Sustainable Development Objectives. Tracking and measuring the scientific research output and cooperation in the 82 -leading natural science period in this field. According to the natural index data, from 2015 to 2021, China's SDG7 related research output ranked first in the world, followed by the United States, Germany, South Korea and Japan.

Last year, SDG7 related research on SDG7 tracked has increased, from 3345 articles in 2020 to 3889, the largest increase since 2015. According to the "Share" of one of the main measures of the Nature Index, the increase in SDG7 related research from 2015 to 2021 was as high as 324.1%, which is the fastest growing country in this field.

Among the top 50 institutions of SDG7 -related output from 2015 to 2021, China also lived in an advantage. There were 25 institutions on the list and 14 institutions in the United States were on the list. Among them, the top ten institutions are: Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tsinghua University, Chinese University of Science and Technology, Peking University, Stanford University, Suzhou University, Nanyang University of Technology, Nanjing University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The additional publication also focused on scientific research cooperation in the field of cleaning and affordable energy. Natural index data show that more than 80%of articles published by France, Australia, Spain, and Britain in this field involve co -authors of other countries. In contrast, China is the only country in the top 30 countries that are not internationally combined with more than internationally than internationally internationally. Although China's international articles are less than half of its total output (46.3%), due to the high output of the article, China often appears in major scientific research cooperation. For example, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Georgia Institute of Technology, Tsinghua University and Nanyang University of Science and Technology, the University of California Berkeley and the Chinese Academy of Sciences are the top three institutions in bilateral cooperation; China and the United States, China and Australia, China and Singapore are the top three rankings Bilateral cooperation between countries.

In addition, Chinese institutions also dominate among the 30 institutions with the fastest -growing production growth of the Natural Index SDG7. Among them, the non -Chinese institutions on the list are the Federal Institute of Technology and the Indian Science and Technology Institute in Zurich, Switzerland, and ranks 28th and 29th respectively.

Simon Baker, editor -in -chief of the Natural Index, said that since 2015, as countries have determined to shift from fossil fuel to more green energy to achieve decarbon, research outputs related to cleaning and affordable energy sources are every year. Increase, the trend is obvious. "From 2015 to 2021, the growth of China's Nature Index 'share" increased by more than 300%, showing an important position in this field. At the same time, many important international cooperation also brought bonus to more clean energy competitions. "
