日本語
この章では、バイオ炭の普及を阻む規制上の課題(廃棄物分類、複雑な炭素クレジット認証、制度的支援の断片化)を分析し、インド、南アフリカ、ブラジル、中国などの途上国における政策動向を比較する。包括的で省庁横断的な政策枠組みの必要性を強調し、明確な法的定義、標準化された品質枠組み、包括的金融メカニズムを提言する。
English
This chapter examines policy barriers to scaling biochar in developing countries, including regulatory classification as waste, costly carbon credit certification, and fragmented institutional support. It analyzes nascent policies in India, South Africa, Brazil, and China, and advocates for holistic cross-ministerial frameworks, clear legal definitions, standardized quality standards, and inclusive finance to de-risk investment and foster innovation.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではJ-クレジット制度でバイオ炭が対象となっているが、本論文の分析は途上国に焦点を当てつつも、炭素除去認証の制度的課題や政策枠組みの設計について日本にも示唆を与える。特に、バイオ炭のカーボンクレジット認証の簡素化や省庁連携の重要性は、日本の政策担当者も注目すべき点である。
In the global GX context
While focused on developing countries, this paper's analysis of systemic barriers to biochar deployment – such as regulatory ambiguity and costly certification – is relevant globally, including for Japan's J-Credit scheme. It provides a comparative perspective on how policy frameworks can enable carbon removal technologies, contributing to the broader literature on climate mitigation policy and carbon market design.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Researchers studying carbon removal policy and innovation systems should note the comparative analysis of biochar policies across multiple developing countries.
🏢実務担当者:Corporate sustainability teams exploring biochar-based carbon offsets can use the paper to understand certification barriers and policy risks in developing country supply chains.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers should consider the recommended cross-ministerial framework and simplified incentives to scale biochar, especially for smallholders in agricultural settings.
📄 Abstract(原文)
This chapter examines the role of public policy as a critical catalyst for scaling biochar solutions in developing countries. Biochar offers a powerful tool for climate change mitigation, sustainable waste management, and improved agricultural practices. Despite its immense potential, its widespread adoption is hampered by systemic barriers, including regulatory ambiguities that classify biochar as waste, costly and complex carbon credit certification processes, and fragmented institutional support. The central argument is that a holistic, cross-ministerial policy framework is essential to overcome these challenges. The chapter provides a global and regional analysis of the current policy landscape, highlighting nascent initiatives in India, South Africa, Brazil, and China, which are beginning to integrate biochar into national and regional climate strategies. Drawing lessons from developed nations, the chapter advocates for clear legal definitions, standardized quality frameworks, and inclusive financial mechanisms that can de-risk investment and foster innovation. It concludes with concrete policy recommendations, emphasizing the need to formalize biochar's role in compliance carbon markets, simplify incentives for smallholders, and promote cross-sectoral coordination to realize biochar's full economic and environmental potential for the Global South.
