Abstract
Now the big attention is paid to the theme of Low carbon economy. Low carbon economy is necessary for future development. The core of a low carbon economy is to reduce the energy used and lower carbon discharged with the economic growth. Thus, new energy development, clean technique utility, green plan and low carbon life style has undoubtedly become hot issues. In this paper, we mainly focus on the risks of R&D on energy saving technology in Chinese energy enterprises. We firstly concluded 24 risks in previous research in this field. According to the statistic of previous research, the risk factors of energy saving technology can be classified into 6 kinds, namely, market risk, technological research risk, financial risk, resource risk, organization risk and intellectual property risk. Then we established the risk evaluation index system based on the survey of five Chinese energy enterprises in Beijing, armed with factor analysis. This risk evaluation index system includes 6 first grade indexes and 16 second grade indexes. Finally, the risk evaluation model of R&D on energy saving technology is built, and the weight of each kinds of risk is calculated according to the survey of previous studies. This risk evaluation model can be used in investment of the R&D on energy saving technology in energy enterprises.
