Abstract: This paper analyses the 60-year-long dynamics of triple helix relations in the development of cleaner power generation technologies of a large state-owned Chinese power equipment manufacturer. It opens the black box of the firm and provides a whole picture of the firm's triple helix relations and the changes in the process. It addresses two research questions: How did the triple helix relations of the case firm evolve over the different stages of technology development? What's the special role of government in the evolution of triple helix relations in China? A heterodox top-down ‘coordinated’ model of triple helix relations is identified.
