本研究は、欧州25か国（1990～2019年）のデータを用いて、資本ストックとCO2排出の関係を分析し、公共投資と民間投資の連携が炭素効率を向上させることを示した。グローバル化は長期的に資本ストックの炭素強度を低下させるが、貿易の影響は一貫しない。都市化は炭素強度低下に寄与する一方、生態学的足跡は悪影響を与える。EU政策立案者にエネルギー転換と投資の統合的ロードマップを提供する。
English
This study analyzes the relationship between capital stock and CO2 emissions across 25 European countries (1990-2019), showing that aligning public and private investments improves carbon efficiency. Globalization reduces carbon intensity of capital stock in the long run, while trade effects vary. Urbanization is linked to lower carbon intensity, but ecological footprint worsens it. The paper provides EU policymakers with a roadmap integrating energy transitions, capital stocks, and governance.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
欧州の実証分析であるが、日本でも公共投資と民間投資の連携による炭素効率改善の可能性が示唆される。グローバル化の影響が長期的にプラスである点は、サプライチェーンを通じた排出削減戦略に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
This European empirical study informs global debates on aligning investment with climate goals, supporting transition finance principles by showing that public-private investment coordination can enhance carbon efficiency. It also nuances the role of globalization and urbanization in carbon intensity.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Researchers can take the econometric methodology linking capital stock to emissions and the nuanced findings on globalization and trade.
🏢実務担当者:Corporate sustainability teams can use the evidence to advocate for public-private investment partnerships in renewable infrastructure.
🏛政策担当者:EU policymakers can use the findings to design investment policies that coordinate public and private sectors for carbon efficiency.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract This study investigates how aligning public and private investments can improve carbon efficiency, providing a context for policymakers seeking sustainable growth. An econometric approach is used to analyze the relationship between capital stock and carbon dioxide emissions across 25 European countries from 1990 to 2019. The study emphasizes the need for policymakers to prioritize public investments in renewable energy infrastructure to create conditions conducive to private-sector participation. This research also demonstrates: (i) a negative effect of globalization on the carbon intensity of the capital stock, particularly in the long run; (ii) the impact of trade on carbon emissions varies across specifications, indicating that trade openness can either reduce or increase carbon intensity; (iii) The ecological footprint negatively affects the carbon efficiency of the capital stock, suggesting the need to protect the environment further and combat global warming; and (iv) the urbanization trend in Europe is primarily linked to a decrease in the carbon intensity of the capital stock, especially over the long run. The interaction among energy transitions, capital stocks, and governance structures provides EU policymakers with a comprehensive roadmap for effectively mitigating climate change.
