日本のGX文脈において
日本では、GXリーグやJ-クレジット制度など炭素市場の整備が進む中、ブロックチェーン技術の活用は透明性向上や取引コスト削減に寄与する可能性がある。本論文のフレームワークは、日本の政策立案や企業のカーボンクレジット戦略に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
Globally, carbon markets are fragmented and lack transparency. Blockchain offers a solution for verifiable carbon credit tracking and efficient trading. This paper provides a timely synthesis and a readiness matrix for practitioners and policymakers looking to integrate blockchain into climate finance infrastructure.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Researchers can build upon the proposed framework and readiness matrix for further empirical studies on blockchain in carbon markets.
🏢実務担当者:Practitioners can use the readiness matrix to assess deployment conditions and explore blockchain solutions for carbon credit management.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers should consider the regulatory implications and opportunities of blockchain for enhancing carbon market integrity.
📄 Abstract（原文）
This paper examines the growing role of blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT) in transforming climate finance and global carbon markets. Drawing on twenty-six peer-reviewed studies alongside current market intelligence from financial institutions, technology firms, regulatory bodies, and multilateral organizations, the research explores how blockchain infrastructure is reshaping transparency, efficiency, and trust within carbon credit ecosystems. The study presents three primary contributions. First, it synthesizes recent 2025–2026 developments in Regenerative Finance (ReFi), Web3 systems, and Layer 2 blockchain architectures influencing modern carbon market infrastructure. Second, it introduces a Blockchain Climate Finance Readiness Matrix designed to map deployment conditions to expected institutional and regional outcomes. Third, it proposes a conceptual framework for a next-generation integrated on-chain carbon ecosystem aimed at addressing structural gaps in emerging climate finance systems. Existing literature highlights significant operational benefits from blockchain adoption in carbon markets. Prior studies report improvements in market price efficiency, major reductions in monitoring and verification timelines, and substantial decreases in administrative overhead across the carbon credit lifecycle. Current industry deployments, including J.P. Morgan's Kinexys Digital Assets platform, India's blockchain-enabled Carbon Credit Trading Scheme, and emerging ReFi infrastructure initiatives, demonstrate how blockchain integration is increasingly becoming a foundational layer for next-generation climate finance ecosystems.
