Using a bottom-up model, the effectiveness of carbon tax policy and a policy mix related to a carbon tax in Japan are assessed to reduce CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emissions to the targeted level in the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol. In this simulation, only existing technologies and practical new...</subscript>

In this paper, a regionally disaggregated global energy model treating energy and CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> transportation in detail is used to examine a cost-effective pattern for their interregional transportation over the 21st century under the CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> stabilization target of 550ppm. Also, we assess future...</subscript></subscript>

The purpose of this study was to assess comprehensively the technological measures for limiting CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system and then to sketch concrete scenarios for the desirable future...</subscript>

This study comprehensively assessed the technological options for reducing SO<Subscript>x</Subscript> and CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emissions in northeastern China’s electric power sector with the linear programming models that take into consideration technological and regional characteristics in detail. We assessed the options for...</subscript></subscript>

Using a bottom-up type global energy model, this article explores in detail the potential role of coal over the 21st century and focuses on the prospects for coal gasification-based conversion technologies with CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> capture and sequestration (CCS) under the CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> stabilization target of 550ppm. The...</subscript></subscript>

The objective of this study was to evaluate the various technological options for the future development of China’s electric power sector taking into consideration its environmental impact. A baseline case, four sulfur control cases, and two carbon control cases were simulated in the...
