AIの生産性向上効果が化石燃料と再生可能エネルギーの両方に及ぶ影響を、世界CGEモデルで定量化。並行導入シナリオでは、正味CO2排出が年間0.47〜1.8ギガトン増加し、化石燃料部門の生産性向上による排出増が再エネによる削減を上回る。政策介入なしではAIが経済の炭素強度を高め、化石燃料の既得権益を強化する可能性を示す。
English
This study models AI as a bidirectional productivity amplifier in a global CGE model, finding that AI-driven productivity gains in fossil fuel sectors lead to net CO2 emission increases of 0.47-1.8 Gt annually, outweighing reductions from renewables. Without policy steering, AI could increase the carbon intensity of the global economy and reinforce fossil fuel incumbency, challenging current governance frameworks.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではGX推進とAI活用が同時に進む中、AIのエネルギー需要増と排出への影響を考慮した政策設計が重要。本研究成果は、AI導入が排出削減に自動的につながらないことを示し、日本企業のGX戦略や政府のAI・気候政策に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
Globally, this paper challenges the assumption that AI inherently supports decarbonization, highlighting the need for policy steering to ensure AI applications align with climate goals. It complements ISSB/TCFD frameworks by quantifying AI's systemic impact on emissions, relevant for transition risk assessment and climate disclosure.

🔬研究者:Provides a novel modeling approach to assess AI's net climate impact, useful for energy-economy modelers and AI sustainability researchers.
🏢実務担当者:Highlights the risk that AI adoption may increase carbon footprint unless guided by sustainability criteria, informing corporate AI strategy and disclosure.
🏛政策担当者:Emphasizes the need for policies to steer AI toward emissions reduction, relevant for climate and technology governance.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract The net climate impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) depend largely on how its applications propagate through competing energy pathways. Predominant analyses examine the relationship between datacenter energy demand, renewables optimization, and demand-side efficiencies, but insufficiently address how AI also reshapes fossil fuel supply economics. We instead model AI as a bidirectional productivity amplifier in a global computable general equilibrium model, quantifying both enabled emissions from fossil fuel productivity gains and avoided emissions from renewables productivity gains. Under parallel adoption scenarios, net annual CO₂ emissions increase by 0.47–1.8 gigatonnes (1.2–4.8% of 2024 global energy-related CO₂ emissions). Enabled emissions exceed avoided emissions whenever fossil-sector gains are nonzero; net emissions reductions require renewables gains 4–5× greater than fossil fuel gains. Absent policy steering, AI’s modeled effects increase the carbon intensity of the global economy and reinforce fossil fuel incumbency—outcomes that current analytical and governance frameworks do not fully capture.
