January 2010: 'Can Technology Really Save Us from Climate Change?' Harvard Business Review [January/February 2010 edition]. Article highlights the research and analysis of a recent CambridgeIP and Chatham House Report [see original report here] regarding the influence of IP and Energy Technologies within our Low-Carbon Future. Full HBR Article Here.
Harvard Business Review cites IP analysis in the Cleantech space done by CambridgeIP and Chatham House as a potential market tool to help direct the future clean-tech landscape more effectively. In addition, the article postulates on the potential influence of IP analysis to methodologically underpin a 'Moore's Law' for clean technology. The use of such a toolkit could assist both industry and government in accelerating technology innovation and deployment in the clean-tech space.
'To cut global emissions in half over the next 40 years, as scientists recommend, clean technologies must be rolled out on a vast scale. In the past, they have taken 19 to 30 years to achieve wide use, say researchers at the UK think tank Chatham House and the patent-search firm CambridgeIP...To be sure, powerful new market forces are at work: Governments beyond Europe are set to impose limits on greenhouse gases, and companies in a range of sectors are searching hard for ways to curb emissions. But technology deployment always takes time...That is particularly true of energy-related inventions, which tend to get into big trouble on their way out of the incubator and into the marketplace'
