Abstract—Green technology refers to an optimal technology that saves energy/ resources overall, and minimizes greenhouse gas/waste output such as greenhouse gas output reduction technology, efficient energy usage technology clean production technology, clean energy technology, resource circulation, and eco-friendly technology. GTNet is a website that provides information about the green technologies to the world non-stop and it is operated under a membership system. GTNet members can select their fields of interest and the provided green technology information are categorized by its field of green technology and labeled by its unique code. We used the membership and published information on GTNet to perform a cluster analysis amongst green technologies and discovered which fields of green technology share a lot of similarity. Also, we have performed a cross analysis on the relationship between high subscribed technological fields and their investment strategies as well. As a result, we have discovered that there are 5 major CNM clusters in green technology and members expressed interest in different clusters based on their affiliations.
Index Terms—GTNet, CNM cluster, cross analysis, green technology.
