This was the final conference of an international research project "Technological trajectories for low carbon development in China, Europe and India", generously funded by the Swedish Riksbankens Jubileumsfond under a joint call with Volkswagen Foundation and Compagnia de San Paolo. The project was jointly carried out by a team of 15 researchers from the German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE), Institute of Development Studies (IDS) Brighton, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi and the School of Public Policy at Tsinghua University between 2011 and 2014. On the basis of case studies on electromobility and wind turbine technologies, the project explored (a) to what extent different initial conditions lead to diverging technological pathways, (b) how this affects global competition and (c) how international low carbon technology cooperation can navigate the trade-offs between national and global interests.
