本研究は、循環経済(CE)の3つの実践(削減、リサイクル、再設計)が企業のカーボンニュートラル戦略(CCN)採用に与える影響を、EU27カ国の6393社のデータを用いて分析。結果、再設計とリサイクルはCCN採用を促進するが、削減はサービス業でのみ効果的であることが判明。また、サービス企業は製造業よりCCNを採用しやすい。
English
This study analyzes the differential impact of circular economy practices (reduction, recycling, redesign) on corporate carbon neutrality (CCN) adoption using data from 6,393 firms across 27 EU countries. Redesign and recycling drive CCN adoption, but reduction is effective only for service companies. Service firms are more likely to adopt CCN than manufacturing firms.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本でもカーボンニュートラルとCEの統合が進む中、本稿はセクター別の効果の違いを示しており、日本企業の戦略立案や政策設計に示唆を与える。特に、製造業とサービス業で異なるCE実践の有効性は、日本の産業構造を考慮する上で重要。
In the global GX context
As global frameworks like ISSB and CSRD emphasize the role of circular economy in decarbonization, this EU-based study provides empirical evidence that the effectiveness of CE practices for carbon neutrality varies by sector. It offers valuable insights for international standard-setters and multinational corporations.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides empirical evidence of the differential impact of circular economy practices on carbon neutrality adoption across sectors.
🏢実務担当者:Highlights that redesign and recycling are broadly effective, but reduction strategies are only impactful for service firms, guiding sector-specific CE investments.
🏛政策担当者:Suggests that policies promoting CE for carbon neutrality should be tailored by industry sector rather than applied uniformly.
📄 Abstract(原文)
Abstract Although carbon neutrality has become a strategic imperative, it is often implemented from a technical perspective, without considering the organization’s strategic vision. This study therefore employs a management perspective to analyze Circular Economy (CE) practices—reduction, recycling, and redesign—as differential drivers of the adoption of corporate carbon neutrality (CCN) strategies. To offer comprehensive picture, we are also focusing on the moderating roles of different sectors of activities. Drawing on the (Natural) Resource-Based View and using binary logistic regression, we analyzed a sample of 6393 companies from 27 EU countries, extracted from Flash Eurobarometer 498. The results confirm the significance of redesigning and recycling in driving CCN adoption. By contrast, we show that reduction is only effective for companies in the service industry, where it exercises a pure moderating effect. Moreover, we show that service companies are more likely to adopt CCN than manufacturing ones. This study makes a threefold contribution. First, it transcends the technical approach to frame carbon neutrality as a strategic management challenge. Second, it disaggregates the CE construct, providing empirical evidence of the differential impact of CE practices. Third, it provides a decision-making framework for managers by demonstrating that the effectiveness of CE strategies for achieving carbon neutrality is not universal but depends fundamentally on sectoral context.
