This article introduced about the new opportunities that have opened up for scaling up the mutually beneficial technology cooperation in environmental technologies (ETs) between Japan and India under the initiative ‘Japan India Technology Matchmaking Platform (JITMAP)' that is being implemented by IGES and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI)...

This research aims to develop a framework to explore scenarios which are compatible with the global 1.5°C climate target. This entails explorations of socio-economic scenarios, as well as technological assumptions on energy systems, which can be supported by stakeholders at the same time satisfying an emission benchmark. First, we set up three...

IGES and Asia-Pacific Network for Global Change Research (APN) conducted the Regional-CES Scoping Project to assess the potential of promoting the Regional-CES concept in Asia. The scoping project organised workshops to engage key national and local stakeholders in the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia in order to promote the Regional-CES concept...

The presentation outlines the follow-ups on a proposal for promoting Indian Rural Women through ESG solutions. It was shared at the stakeholder consultation workshop in Pune, India, on 14 December 2023.

This is a presentation on fostering Japan-MENA's 'win-win' net-zero partnership, including launching a knowledge-sharing and green business matching platform (J-MENA GREEN). It was presented at a joint side event during COP28, UAE, intended to provide stakeholders across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region with an opportunity to discuss...

This report examines the feasibility of Japan not only achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, but also making significant reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, so as to make its cumulative emissions as small as possible, thereby contributing to the global goal of limiting the average temperature increase to below 1.5°C compared to the pre...

It was presented at an Affiliated event at the MENA Climate Week 2023 that intended to provide stakeholders across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region with an...

IGES and Asia-Pacific Network for Global Change Research (APN) conducted the Regional-CES Scoping Project to assess the potential of promoting the Regional-CES concept in Asia. The scoping project organised workshops to engage key national and local stakeholders in the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia. This is the commissioned report summarising...

As decarbonisation of the power sector is essential to achieve Japan’s target of net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, it becomes crucial to address how the electricity system incorporates short- and long-term variability in the power output via renewable energy. In this paper, we developed six scenarios for 100% renewable energy in...

T7 Policy brief: Task Force on Wellbeing, Environmental Sustainability, and Just Transition As the world’s most developed economies, the Group of Seven (G7) countries play a crucial role in leading the transition to net-zero, which necessitates the use of critical minerals (CMs) in various clean energy applications. However, the growing demand for...
