Since uctuated, slowing sharply in 2008, 2011 and 2016, and the planning and construction period of coal-red power having peaked in 2010. Chinese involvement in Belt projects is long, over two fths of China's Belt and Road and Road coal-red power projects peaked in 2010. This coal-red power projects are in the pipeline (planned trend shows that China's participation in these projects or signed) or under construction. Meanwhile, the share is aected by global economic shifts, the policies of host of projects supported by investment from China is also countries, and restructuring toward cleaner energy. rising. Given the mounting opposition of the international community to new fossil fuel infrastructure and the • Overseas project contracting is the most common form trend towards accelerated energy restructuring, the risks of involvement for Chinese companies developing coal- associated with these projects may also increase. red power projects in countries along the Belt and Road. Under this approach, the governments or enterprises of host countries issue invitations to bid, whereby Chinese companies have beat other global competitors and secured bids. However, these Chinese companies do not participate in project operation and management, and therefore have no stake in the project's prots and have limited inuence. Relations between China and host countries and policies of the Chinese government are not the primary drivers for these projects; rather, market factors including host countries' need to develop the power sector and the pursuit of prots by Chinese companies motivate China's participation in these projects.

However, in 2009, India began to adopt Stage Two (2010 to 2013): Slow growth. During this stage, a protectionist policy and explicitly banned foreign participation Chinese overseas coal power development slowed largely due in 11 major boiler/turbine power generator projects. In July 2012, to domestic policy changes in India as explained above.5 the Indian government instated a 21% import duty on power equipment and cancelled duty exemption for ultra mega power Stage Three (2013 to 2015): Rapid growth.

The research findings provide insight into how the Chinese government strongly and systematically decrees state-owned Chinese firms to expand into overseas markets to speed up learning efforts. Insights are offered regarding the nation-level strategic plans and institutional support policies mobilized by China in order to be able to conquer market shares internationally by building a strong home market and then facilitating an end-to-end and fully financed export solution. This is interesting in itself and in particular so because it now also includes complex billion-dollar megaprojects such as turnkey offshore wind farm assets with an expected lifespan of 30+ years. Research findings are provided on how European and Chinese firms may successfully forge long-term alliances also for future Chinese wind energy export projects. Examples of past efforts of collaboration not yielding desired results have been included as well. At policy level, recommendations are provided on how the evolution of the Chinese offshore wind power industry can be fast-tracked to mirror the revolutionary pace, volume, and velocity which the Chinese onshore wind power industry has mustered.
