In Journal of Cleaner Production
Households may imperfectly implement energy saving measures. This study identifies two factors resulting in imperfect use of energy-saving technology by households. Households often continue to use old technologies alongside new ones, and the energy-saving technologies have shorter actual lifetimes than their designed lifetimes. These two factors...

The International Symposium on Regional Green Development
Funded by the Government of Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) has been conducting empirical studies on carbon pricing in Northeast Asia. The related policy progress is generally laggard in this region compared with that in Europe. One of the main barriers may be attributed to the high resistance from...
Issue Brief
Executive Summary: The purpose of this issue brief is to provide an overview of the latest movement of the emissions trading scheme (ETS), with a focus on the three key Asian carbon markets in Tokyo, China (esp. the pilots) and the Republic of Korea (hereinafter abbreviated as Korea). The key findings are as follows: - As of 2017, the global share...
Policy Brief
This policy brief suggests that carbon pricing can accelerate the diffusion of low-carbon technology in China, based on the results of empirical studies conducted by Kansai Research Centre of IGES focusing on China’s most energy intensive industries.

In Applied Energy
This study estimates the effect of carbon pricing for CO2 mitigation in China’s cement industry. The statistics and prediction show that cement production initially experienced accelerated growth and is now expected to plateau out over the next few years. The energy saving and carbon mitigation technologies considered in this estimation are at...

The 17th Global Conference on Environmental Taxation (GCET17)
This study estimates the effect of carbon pricing for CO2 mitigation in China’s cement industry considering a total of 16 low carbon technologies. The statistics and prediction indicate that cement production of China has been increased dramatically in the past, and would experience a plateau period in the next few years. Through the continuous...
Peer-reviewed Article
In Journal of Cleaner Production
This study estimates how carbon price affects diffusion of low carbon technologies using data collected from 60 iron & steel companies in China. The analysis indicates that the industry is familiar with related key energy saving and low carbon technologies and has made much progress in energy saving, but efforts in carbon management need improving...
