Focusing on a national project (Sunshine Project) for renewable energy technology, this study described in detail its history from the viewpoint of R&D activities by some influential private firms and universities. This study looked at interaction among various players in the project from multidimensional viewpoints. The project succeeded in the growth of the photovoltaic power generation industry and that industry accomplished No. 1 market share in the world in the 2000s. It was a great achievement. This study found not only economic and engineering rationality but also restrictions of legal and tax system in the history of the project. In addition, it was also found that bureaucrats and researchers established the project strategically harmonized with their R&D activities.
