        Green Growth Strategy through Achieving Carbon Neutrality in 2050

        Japan’s Green Growth Strategy sets out sector-specific decarbonisation pathways across 14 priority industrial sectors, including steel, chemicals, hydrogen, automotive, and power. It defines technology deployment targets, investment roadmaps, and policy support measures to drive industrial transformation, alongside public–private investment mobilisation and innovation funding (e.g. multi-trillion yen GX and Green Innovation Fund support). The strategy serves as the core framework guiding industrial decarbonisation and economic transformation toward carbon neutrality by 2050.

        Carbon Tax Act (Act No. 15/2019)

        The Carbon Tax Act, enacted in June 2019, gives effect to the polluter-pays-principle for large emitters and helps to ensure that firms and consumers take the negative adverse costs (externalities) into account in their future production, consumption and investment decisions. Firms are incentivized towards adopting cleaner technologies over the next decade and beyond.The carbon tax is initially only applied to scope 1 emitters in the first phase. The first phase lasted from 1 June 2019 to 31 December 2022, and the second phase will take place from 2023 to 2030. The design of the carbon tax also…
