Carbon Lock-in Dilemma and Experience of Japan's Energy Transition from the Perspective of Climate Change
In the midst of the global climate crisis,there is increasing pressure on countries to decarbonise and reduce emissions,with many leading national and international organisations proposing an improved energy transition aimed at achieving the Paris Agreement.Japan faces a significant challenge in achieving the net-zero target by 2050 due to its carbon lock-in problem.Japan's carbon lock-in has deep historical,technological,institutional and socio-behavioural factors.In recent years,Japan has further integrated climate and energy policies,proposed a clean energy strategy and strengthened energy diplomacy in an attempt to break carbon lock-in in various ways.In light of Japan's experience,China should strengthen its top-level policy-making capacity,pay attention to technological breakthroughs and the design of a green and low-carbon lifestyle,and continue to expand international cooperation in order to advance and refine of the Chinese-style development path of green energy transition.
