This paper estimates an internal carbon pricing of Korean companies under the Korean domestic emission trading scheme using firm-level data. Internal carbon pricing is a monetary value putting on GHG emissions, which enables companies to take a measurable approach of carbon management and investment strategy in business operations. The price of...

In response to climate change, Korea is attempting to shift the paradigm of energy and climate change policies by introducing carbon pricing based on market mechanisms. While policy adoption is proceeding at a rapid pace, the introduction of carbon pricing has been faced with great opposition from industry. This study measures to what extent Korean...

本発表は，まず，韓国の再生可能エネルギー政策の経緯及び現状，加えて，再生可能エネルギー導入状況及びその特徴について紹介した後，済州道の再生多能エネルギー投入・拡大のための取り組みについて述べた。 済州島は，済州特別自治道 （済州道）の中心となる島であり，韓国の島の中で最大の島で，再生可能エネルギーの導入に有利な地形，自然条件を持っている。済州道は2013年にスマートグリッド，電気自動車，再生可能エネルギーをキーワードとする「2030年カーボンフリーアイランド済州（Carbon Free Island Jeju by 2030）」のロードマップを公開した。 本発表では，「2030年カーボンフリーアイランド済州（Carbon Free Island Jeju by 2030）...

The low-carbon technology innovation for climate change mitigation attracts increasing attention from both entrepreneurs and policymakers. The accelerated technology development is expected to achieve the stringent climate goals and reduce the costs. The existing sophisticated econometric models incorporate a mechanism in it that allows the economy...

Korea’s domestic emissions trading scheme commenced in January 2015. It targeted mainly industrial and power sectors, and compelled companies to transform how they manage energy efficiency and mitigate GHGs. This study sets out to explore how Korean companies evaluated their allocation position and engaged in emissions trading in the first...
