(II) Core points

(1) Representative papers: “Overview of the Photovoltaic Technology Status and Perspective in China” published in “Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews”; “Legal Regulation of Market-oriented Policy Instruments in the Development of China’s Photovoltaic Industry” (doctoral dissertation of laws of Huazhong University of Science and Technology). The dissertation holds that market-oriented policy instruments are the carrier of administrative discretion, and the regulation of administrative discretion is the meaning of the legal regulation of market-oriented policy instruments. In the development of China’s photovoltaic industry, there are some problems in the practical application of the main market-oriented policy instruments, which can be attributed to the abuse of administrative discretion, so it is necessary to introduce legal regulation. The legal regulation of market-oriented policy instruments in the development of China’s photovoltaic industry should be carried out from the legislative, administrative and judicial level, so as to provide reference for the development of renewable energy industry in other fields.

(2) Representative works: Towards Sounder Development of PV Industry in China (Scholars’ Press in Germany, ISBN 978-3-639-71228-5). To improve China’s strategy of promoting the development of renewable energy industry, it is necessary to analyze the competitiveness and development direction of China under the background of global green energy technology development. In the development of photovoltaic industry in China, the government should play a guiding role, promulgate incentive policies and incentive measures for photovoltaic equipment installation, issue relevant energy laws, and improve the national new energy project to enhance the national competitiveness. Legislation is an important way to enhance the competitiveness of China’s photovoltaic industry and other renewable energy industries.

(III) Social assessment

Dr. Song Dongdong has been devoted to the research of renewable energy law and policy for a long time and his research results have been concerned and recognized by academic circles at home and abroad. Representative paper: “Overview of the Photovoltaic Technology Status and Perspective in China”, published in “Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews” (indexed by SCI & SSCI, IF in 2015: 6.798, 5-year IF: 7.896, journal in SCI Q1). Within a short period after publication, the citation rate of high-level SCI & SSCI journal paper reached 11 times. Due to its close connection with national strategy and international hot issues, his research achievements have attracted the attention of relevant fields at home and abroad. Melissa Murry and Michael D. Jones, American energy policy scholars, highly praised his research achievements. Therefore, he has been invited to participate in international academic conferences for many times and has been supported by relevant funds.
