Features: In the practices of many countries, Public-Private Partnership (PPP) has been proven to be an effective form of utility service arrangement. In China, the exploration of PPP in public utilities has gradually expanded, with innovative cases emerging across regions, adding fresh experiences with Chinese characteristics to PPP and updating its historical development. "Innovation is the soul of a nation," the Center for Research on Public Utilities at Tianze, as a product and participant in the wave of reform and development of public utilities in China, is committed to faithfully documenting this historical process of innovation and supporting and promoting it through academic research. We believe that this is not only a practical need for China's economic development but also an obligation of Chinese intellectuals. This book primarily discusses PPP as the core concept worldwide for achieving economic goals and enhancing public service levels in the construction and development of public utilities. It covers the theoretical origins of PPP, its corresponding practices in various industries in China, and current challenges. Based on summarizing experiences and lessons, the author proposes policy recommendations for reference. The book is clear in concept, well-structured, and accompanied by extensive background materials, making it a comprehensive research report suitable for professionals in relevant industries.
