Submission to Policy Process
現在の日本のNDCでは、2030年に2013年度比で温室効果ガス排出量26%削減を目標としていますが、NDC策定時の経済成長想定を実績値にあわせてより現実的な数値とすることで、目標には引き上げの余地があることが明らかになっています。IGESはその研究成果に基づき、経済成長想定をより現実的な数値にした場合の2030年削減量を示すと同時に、それをベースとして、さらなる引き上げを議論すべきであることを提言します。
Submission to Policy Process
Japan's current NDC targets a 26% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared to the 2013 level. However, it has become clear that there is room to raise this target by matching the economic growth assumptions made when the NDC was formulated with actual figures, and making them more realistic. Drawing on the study’s results, IGES...
Policy Report
国際再生可能エネルギー機関（IRENA）による報告書「Transforming the Energy System: And Holding the Line on Rising Global Temperatures」のIGES翻訳版（暫定非公式訳）。現行計画・政策に基づくエネルギーシナリオと低炭素技術の野心的な取り組みに基づくエネルギー変革シナリオを比較分析し、気候変動に対して強靭で持続可能な未来を築くためには、世界でエネルギー変革を加速させる必要があると指摘しています。具体的には、再生可能エネルギー、エネルギー効率対策、熱・輸送の電化への投資を拡大し、こうしたエネルギー投資を広範な社会経済政策と連携させることで、公正なエネルギー変革を包括的に進めるべきであるとしています...
Policy Report
国連環境計画（UNEP）が発表した「Emissions Gap（排出ギャップ）Report 2019」エグゼクティブ・サマリーの日本語翻訳版（暫定非公式訳）。2018年に排出された温室効果ガス（GHG）の総量、今後予想される排出量及びパリ協定目標を達成するための排出量との差である「排出ギャップ」などについて様々な分析を行っている。特に、世界のGHG排出量の8割近くを占めるG20メンバーによる早急な取り組み強化の必要性、再生可能エネルギーの利用拡大、エネルギー効率化を検証し、世界の総排出削減を進め、排出ギャップを埋める野心的な方策を提案し、経済・社会全体の革新的な変化の必要性を強調している。
