碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 管理學院科技管理學程 === 100 === This thesis reports on developing a strategic analysis of the Flow Battery industry, using a portfolio model to assess competitive and strategic requirements. The portfolio model entails a 2-dimensional analysis, containing market s-curve and the value chain. Three research methods used for data collection are literature review, expert interview, and general survey. This research reveals that the flow battery industry is positioned at the burgeoning phase of the market s-curve, and the manufacturing area of the value chain. The future prospects should be placed at the position of the developing phase of the market s-curve, and also between the burgeoning phase of the market s-curve and the applied of market area of the value chain. Evaluating the Industrial Innovation Requirements and Policy Tools leads to a conclusion that the most critical categories of policy instruments are “Nation fundamental research capability”, “Full support to overall innovation nationwide”, “Integration capability of research units”, ”Patent system”, “Government policies in support of industrial innovation”, “Mechanism for technology transferring and introducing”, “Industrial standards and information acquirement”, “Government preferential system”, “Special facilities for the industry”, “Special area researchers”, “Innovative R&D management”, “Special area scientist” “Research budget”. More specifically, the corresponding policy instruments in support of developing IIRs are provided in the conclusion of this thesis.
