摘要
The purpose of this study is to prepare for the potential integration of Korea, China, and Japan's individual or regional emissions trading schemes into a larger international system. In addition, the study analyzes the expected economic and environmental impacts of integrating carbon trading schemes of Korea, China, and Japan. To achieve this, the industrial and trade structures, greenhouse gases reduction policies, carbon emission intensities, and emissions reduction potentials of Korea, China, and Japan were analyzed, and the economic and environmental impacts of integrating Korea, China, and Japan's national carbon emissions trading schemes were examined using a computable general equilibrium model. According to 2008 figures, Korea, China, and Japan collectively accounted for 17.6% of the total global GDP and 28.3% of the total global CO2 emissions. By 2035, IEA predicts that the collective weight of Korea, China, and Japan, in terms of total global GDP and CO2 emissions, will increase by 20.6% and 35.2% respectively. At present time, the three countries all rank within the top ten in importing crude oil, natural gas, coal, and fossil fuels, and with regards to coal importation, Japan, China, and Korea rank first, second, and third globally. The energy imports of all three countries have shown sharp increases over the past decade, but Korea's energy import increase is particularly serious. In terms of fossil fuel imports (based on crude oil, coal, natural gas, petroleum, and petroleum products), Korea's energy import figures increased 2.7 times from $33 billion dollars in 2000 to $121.1 billion dollars today. In 2008, Korea's net import of energy was the highest in the world at 4.67 toe/person. With regards to the future developmental processes of a global carbon market, Korea, China, and Japan will play critical roles due to their large collective weight and growth potential in terms of total global energy importation and greenhouse gas emissions. When comparing Korea, China, and Japan, both Korea and Japan demonstrated high energy import dependencies and low industrial carbon intensities while China demonstrated high economic growth potential and high industrial energy intensity. Also, China and Korea are shown to be highly trade dependent countries. The different national characteristics of Korea, China, and Japan illustrate how the three countries will face different circumstances in establishing their own greenhouse gas reduction policies and integrating their policies into an international emission trading scheme.
