The objective of this dissertation was to evaluate China’s role in the global energy transition under technical-economic aspects, access to critical resources and power. For this, it was investigated the role of the State regarding renewable technologies policymaking, the evolution of the global renewable technologies that were prioritized, and the Chinese access to the critical resources. Findings show that the Chinese State, under a long-term vision and with the capacity to mobilize large resources to scale up and verticalize key industries, has assumed the role of internationalizing a new energy model based on renewable energy sources. Moreover, gains of scale and learning resulted in the reduction of costs, as well as the construction of the support infrastructure. In addition, energy security and demand for environmental quality were important driving forces for the continuity of the Chinese development project, which has focused on the development of low carbon technologies.
