    Award Introduction

    The Bluetech Award is launched by the Clean Air Alliance to bring leading international clean air technologies to the front and center of the fight against China's air pollution. Technologies will be evaluated by a selection committee with a standardized process that verifies their ability and breakthrough potential in terms of environmental benefits, technical performances, and financial viability. Ultimately, the campaign will enable winners to accelerate the application of their technologies in the Chinese market via technology demonstration, customized matchmaking, tapping into Clean Air Alliance's network and leveraging their tools to help China battle air pollution.
