Green development is a complex and systematic engineering and a long-term task, involving economic, social and industrial development and scientific and technological progress, etc. The key to achieving green development is to foster an effective institutional mechanism and policy environment. In 2014, the Research Department of techno- Economy of DRC launched a research on the institutional mechanism and policy for green development. Focusing on the institutional mechanism and policy of green development, the research was made from several aspects including regional experience, typical fields and international experience. The research team selected Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen to study the typical experience of local green development. The team made surveys in the fields of clean coal, co-generation units of heat and power and waste recycling reuse. It also studied the institutional mechanism and policies of some developed countries in promoting green development. This book is divided into eight chapters. Chapter 1 gives a comprehensive review of the research findings on the institutional mechanism and policy for green development. Chapter 2 is about the institutional mechanism and policy for green development in Beijing. Chapter 3 is about the typical experience and institutional mechanism for the promotion of green development in Shenzhen. Chapter 4 is about the innovative practice and institutional mechanism for green development in Shanghai. Chapter 5 is about the policy research on the development of clean and efficient use of coal. Chapter 6 is about the current development, main problems and suggestions on China's co-generation units of heat and power. Chapter 7 is about the study on China’s waste recycling system and policy measures. And the last chapter is about the institutional mechanism and policy implications for green development based on institutional mechanism.
