EUのセメント産業の脱炭素投資を、排出権価格・CCSコスト・CO2輸送・貯蔵の不確実性を考慮したリアルオプション・モデルで分析。179工場を対象に、不確実性認識が投資のタイミングと地理的分布に強く影響することを示す。高い信頼性があればCCSとバイオマス利用が普及し、2025-2050年に0.6ギガトンのCO2削減が可能だが、低い信頼性では遅延が生じ、累積排出量が0.8ギガトンに達する。バイオマス利用可能性、資金調達条件、立地も投資行動を左右し、信頼できるエネルギー・気候政策の必要性を強調。

English

This study develops a real options valuation model to analyze decarbonization investments in 179 EU cement plants under uncertainties in allowance prices, CCS costs, and CO2 infrastructure. Results show that uncertainty perception strongly affects investment timing and geography: high confidence could enable widespread CCS and biomass use, removing 0.6 Gt CO2 by 2050, while low confidence could delay action, leading to cumulative emissions of 0.8 Gt. Biomass availability, financing, and location also shape investment behavior, underscoring the need for credible climate policy.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters

日本のGX文脈において

日本のセメント産業はエネルギー集約型で、今後カーボンプライシングやGX政策の影響を受ける。本論文の不確実性下での投資判断モデルは、日本のセメント・鉄鋼など排出集約産業の脱炭素戦略や、政府の政策設計（補助金・インフラ整備）に示唆を与える。

In the global GX context

This paper provides a rigorous framework for assessing industrial decarbonization under policy and technology uncertainty, relevant to global carbon pricing and CCS deployment debates. It highlights the role of credible policy in driving investment timing, which is critical for meeting Paris Agreement goals. The findings inform international discussions on transition finance and industrial decarbonization strategies.

👥 読者別の含意

🔬研究者:Provides a real options model that quantifies the impact of uncertainty on industrial decarbonization investment, useful for extending to other sectors or regions.

🏢実務担当者:Highlights how uncertainty perception affects investment decisions, informing corporate strategy on CCS and biomass adoption under evolving carbon pricing.

🏛政策担当者:Demonstrates that credible and stable climate policy is crucial to avoid delayed decarbonization and to unlock investment in CCS infrastructure.

📄 Abstract（原文）

Cement production is a major source of CO 2 emissions. In the European Union, the Emissions Trading System is the cornerstone instrument to incentivize industry decarbonization, including cement. However, major uncertainties prevail regarding allowance prices, carbon-capture investment costs, and the availability of CO 2 pipelines and storage sites. These uncertainties affect real-world investment decisions, but are not yet well represented in models. Here, we develop a real options valuation model to assess how 179 cement plants across Europe respond to these uncertainties. Our results show that uncertainty perception strongly influences the timing and geography of investments. High confidence in favorable investment determinants could lead to widespread deployment of carbon capture and storage and biomass use, turning the cement industry into a carbon sink with 0.6 gigatons CO₂ removed between 2025 and 2050 in total. Low confidence, however, could lead many cement producers to delay action, resulting in cumulated emissions of 0.8 gigatons CO₂ over the same time frame. Biomass availability, financing conditions, and plant location further shape investment behavior, underscoring the need for credible energy and climate policy.
