本研究は、中国の新エネルギー産業におけるESG制約が投資ポートフォリオの最適化に与える影響を実証的に分析した。Markowitzモデルを用いて、ESG評価が高い銘柄に絞ることでリスクが36.61%低減することを示した。しかし、高いESG評価を持つ資産が高ボラティリティであるというグリーン配分パラドックスや、上位2銘柄で88.35%を占める集中リスクも明らかにした。これらの課題に対し、動的ESGモニタリングシステムや業種別ウェイト上限の設定などの改善策を提案している。
English
This paper empirically examines how ESG constraints affect portfolio optimization in China's new energy sector. Using data from 10 major firms (2024-2026) and the Markowitz model, it finds that imposing an ESG≥85 constraint reduces portfolio variance by 36.61% compared to an equal-weight benchmark. However, it also identifies a green allocation paradox and excessive concentration, and proposes strategies such as dynamic ESG monitoring and weight caps.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The volatility of the new energy industry in China, especially with the background of the global energy transition toward the so-called Dual Carbon strategy, has become a major challenge to the old approach to investing in China. This paper empirically examines how ESG constraints affect new energy investment portfolio optimization. The research samples, which are 10 major enterprises within the industry, such as CATL and BYD, will provide their weekly trading data and Huazheng ESG rating indicators in 2024-2026. Using the Markowitz mean-variance model and solver programming, it identifies risk-minimizing efficient portfolios. According to the empirical findings, the variance of the investment portfolio following the imposition of the ESG ≥ 85 constraint decreases by 36.61 percent as compared to the equal-weight benchmark portfolio. Nonetheless, the research also finds that there are important implementation issues, such as a green allocation paradox (high-ESG assets with high volatility are left out) and excessive concentration (the two largest holdings constitute 88.35%), which can negatively affect diversification returns. This paper suggests optimization strategies, such as the creation of a dynamic ESG monitoring system, the establishment of weight caps in subdivided industries, and improved active governance participation, in order to address these pain points. This paper adds a quantitative model of including ESG in portfolio development, providing not only a risk-management perspective to green investors but also practical suggestions toward the high-quality, capital-markets-appropriate development of the new energy sector in China.
