本研究はEU加盟国の陶磁器企業51社への調査に基づき、EU ETSの影響を分析。規制対象企業の約半数がエネルギー効率やクリーン技術への投資を増やす一方、一部は利益減少やコスト増を経験。すべての企業が何らかの脱炭素策を実施（再生可能電力、循環経済、低炭素燃料など）。規制対象は電化・燃料転換、非規制は循環経済を優先する傾向。EU ETSの差別的効果を示し、業種別の政策設計の重要性を強調。
English
Based on a survey of 51 ceramic firms across EU Member States, this study analyzes firm responses to the EU ETS. About half of regulated firms increased investments in energy efficiency or cleaner technologies, while others faced reduced margins or higher costs. All firms adopted some decarbonization measures (renewable electricity, circular economy, lower-carbon fuels). Regulated firms prioritize electrification and fuel switching; non-regulated firms lean toward circular economy. Highlights differentiated effects of EU ETS and need for nuanced policy design.

日本のGX文脈において
日本ではSSBJ（サステナビリティ基準委員会）の開示基準策定が進むが、排出量取引の本格導入は未定。本論文は、炭素価格が業種別にどのような影響を与えるかの実証データを提供し、日本の陶磁器業界や政策担当者にとって示唆に富む。特に、規制対象・非対象の企業行動の差異は、日本が将来的に炭素価格制度を設計する際の参考となる。
In the global GX context
This paper provides empirical evidence on how carbon pricing (EU ETS) affects a hard-to-abate sector. For global audiences, it adds sector-specific insights to the growing literature on carbon pricing effectiveness. The findings inform policy design for emissions trading systems and corporate decarbonization strategies, relevant to jurisdictions developing or refining carbon pricing (e.g., UK, China, Canada).
👥 読者別の含意

🏢実務担当者:Provides benchmarking data and strategy insights for ceramic firms facing carbon pricing, including common decarbonization measures and investment patterns.
🏛政策担当者:Highlights differential impacts of ETS regulation across firm sizes and sub-sectors, suggesting the need for tailored policy support.
📄 Abstract（原文）
ABSTRACT Drawing on an original survey of 51 ceramic firms across multiple EU Member States—including both regulated and unregulated under the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS)—the study provides insight into how ceramic manufacturers assess the financial impacts of carbon pricing, the decarbonization measures adopted, and the strategic drivers shaping firms' low‐carbon transitions. The survey includes firms of varying sizes and sub‐sectors, ranging from tiles to technical and advanced ceramic producers. Approximately half of ETS‐regulated firms report increased investments in energy efficiency or cleaner technologies, while others experience reduced margins, higher operating costs, or even little discernible impact. Both ETS and non‐ETS respondents have implemented at least some decarbonization measures—most commonly renewable electricity, circular economy practices, and lower‐carbon fuels—though with substantial variation across sub‐segments. ETS‐regulated respondents tend to prioritize electrification and fuel switching, whereas non‐regulated respondents lean toward circular economy approaches and considerably plan further measures in the near term. These insights could highlight the differentiated effects of the EU ETS and underscore the need for nuanced policy design and firm‐level strategies to support a credible decarbonization pathway in the ceramics sector.
