| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research first quantitatively assessed the co-benefits of CO2 mitigation under climate stabilization constraints so that global average temperature increase should be limited to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, and then derive the most cost-effective timing of CO2 mitigation under the climate stabilization constraints described above taking into account the co-benefits of CO2 mitigation. These were done by using a long-term bottom-up type global energy system model called REDGEM70 with 70 world regions. The results show that a decline in air pollutants emissions, a decline in import share of primary energy supply, and an increase in Shannon-Wiener diversity index occur as the co-benefits of CO2 mitigation. The results also show that global CO2 emissions decrease in 2020 compared to the 2010 level and remain almost constant until 2050.
