Integrated assessment models (IAM) provide key information to allow policymakers to understand the possible outcomes of alternative development and climate policy scenarios. However, the complexity and large size of information resulting from IAMs, prevents straightforward communication of key insights to policy makers, unless a “translation...

We assess the feasibility of Japan’s NDC along with 80% emission reduction by 2050, comparing the role of uncertain nuclear power deployment to other key uncertainties by means of a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model.

This study presents a multi-model analysis of long-term climate policy of Japan, whose mid-century strategy is subject to an ongoing policy debate, focusing on the carbon dioxide emissions in the energy sector. The models demonstrate multiple future pathways of the low-carbon energy system in Japan. The median of marginal abatement cost is found to...

Achieving long term climate mitigation targets for Japan requires deep transformations in the energy system, in particular in the power generation sector. Decarbonization of this sector is unclear due to the uncertain nuclear policy after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. However, many other uncertainties need to be considered, namely the...

These country sheets present research findings on national long-term, low-emission pathways along the three Talanoa Dialogue questions: where are we, where do we want to go and how do we get there? The results highlight opportunities for enhancing ambition and success stories, and address country-specific topics. For Brazil: sustainable...

本稿では日本の2050年までの温室効果ガス，エネルギーシステムのシナリオを，複数のエネルギーモデルもしくは統合評価モデルを用いて定量化し，それらを相互比較することによって，不確実性を踏まえた長期の気候政策の評価を行う。

The achievement of long-term targets for climate mitigation in Japan faces several uncertainties with respect to the availability of power generation technologies. Starting with the difficult situation of nuclear power deployment after the 2011 events, the effect of technological constraints on the reduction of large amounts of greenhouse gases...
