本研究は、EUの炭素国境調整メカニズム（CBAM）の実施を背景に、中国の鉄鋼輸出企業が政策期待にどう反応するかを製品レベルのデータと差分の差分法（DID）を用いて分析。移行期間中は価格が炭素コストの主な伝達経路であり、政策効果には顕著な遅れが生じることを発見。高排出製造業の国際的なグリーン規制への適応メカニズムを解明し、低炭素移行への示唆を提供する。
English
This study analyzes how Chinese steel exporters respond to anticipated EU CBAM using product-level data and a difference-in-differences approach. It finds that during the transition period, prices serve as the primary channel for carbon cost pass-through, with significant lagged effects. The research provides empirical evidence on how high-emission manufacturing sectors adapt to external climate policy shocks, offering insights for low-carbon transition and global SDG 13 targets.

日本のGX文脈において
日本企業にとっても、EUのCBAMは鉄鋼など高排出製品の輸出に直接影響する。本論文の中国事例は、日本が同様の政策ショックに備える上で参考になる。特に、価格転嫁のメカニズムや政策効果の遅れは、日本の鉄鋼業界がCBAM対応を検討する際の示唆に富む。
In the global GX context
This paper provides micro-level evidence on how Chinese steel exporters anticipate and respond to the EU CBAM, a key global carbon pricing mechanism. The findings on price transmission and lagged effects are relevant for understanding the real-world impact of border carbon adjustments on trade and emissions. It contributes to the global discourse on carbon leakage and the effectiveness of climate policy in hard-to-abate sectors.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Against the backdrop of the imminent implementation of the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), China’s steel exports face significant external carbon cost shocks. As a core sector of heavy industry with high carbon emissions, the steel industry is a key link in advancing global sustainable development and achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13 (Climate Action). Exploring the response of China’s steel exporters to anticipated carbon regulatory policies is therefore critical to understanding the practical pathways for low-carbon transition in high-emission manufacturing sectors under the framework of global sustainable development.This study adopts a micro-level approach, utilizing product-level data and employing a Difference-in-Differences (DID) method under a two-way fixed effects model alongside a dynamic event study within a DID framework. It identifies the responses of different steel products to policy shocks and potential transmission pathways. Results indicate that during the transition period, prices appear to serve as the primary channel for manifesting anticipated carbon costs; policy effects exhibit pronounced lagged impacts regardless of transmission route. This study provides insights into how China’s steel market responds to policy expectation signals, shedding light on the economic-level responses of high-emission manufacturing sectors to international green regulations in the context of sustainable development, and providing empirical evidence and policy insights for understanding how China’s manufacturing exports adapt to external climate policy shocks and for promoting the low-carbon transformation of the steel industry to align with global SDG 13 targets.
