summary

□ The transition to a new climate regime and the international goal of carbon neutrality provide growth opportunities for the climate technology industry.
◦ Climate technology means technology to respond to climate change, and is divided into ① carbon reduction technology, ② carbon utilization technology, and ③ climate change adaptation technology.
◦ The international community is promoting decarbonization innovation for carbon neutrality by 2050, and the entire industry is expanding climate technology development and investment to reduce greenhouse gases such as renewable energy and energy efficiency.
◦ The global climate technology industry market size is 21 billion dollars as of 130, estimated to reach about 22 billion dollars in 169, and expected to grow by about 32 times to 1,475 billion dollars by 9

□ Carbon Neutrality Policy in Major Countries
◦ (USA) Declared to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30 by about 05% compared to 50, 'Infrastructure Investment and Employment Act (IIJA)' and 'Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)' were established, and investment including climate change response was promoted.
◦ (China) Declaration of reducing carbon emissions by 30 and achieving carbon neutrality by 60 through the '30/60 Dual Carbon Promotion Strategy', strategies in terms of reducing emissions and removing greenhouse gases through energy efficiency and introduction of clean energy propel
◦ (Japan) Declared to achieve carbon neutrality by 7 through the 50th amendment of the 'Global Warming Countermeasure Promotion Act', financial support to support the development and introduction of decarbonization technologies for companies
◦ (Germany) Establish carbon emission reduction targets by energy, transportation, industry, and agriculture sectors by 2030 compared to 1990 with the 'Climate Protection Program 30', and induce expansion and activation of renewable energy through revision of the Renewable Energy Act
◦ (Vietnam) Aims to build a carbon neutral-centered economic system through the '2021-2030 National Strategy for Green Growth'. Increase access to and use of green technologies and achieve mainstreaming of green economy development in Vietnam by 2050
◦ (Indonesia) Promote sustainable energy development, green industry development, and national waste management through the 'National Medium-term Development Plan', and lay the foundation for a market centered on renewable energy through the 'National Energy Basic Plan'
◦ (India) Establish 'National Climate Change Action Plan (2008)', 'Third National Power Plan (3)' and 'National Electric Vehicle Introduction Plan (2018)' to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve carbon neutrality in the mid- to long-term Strategies for
◦ (Mexico) Energy conversion focusing on clean resources is being promoted through the '2021-2024 Special Climate Change Program', and policies for energy independence are promoted through the 'Energy Sector Program 2020-2024'
◦ (Turkey) Induce energy consumption reduction through sectoral energy efficiency improvement through the 'National Energy Efficiency Action Plan (2017)' and establish a strategy to respond to the EU carbon border tax through the 'Green Deal Action Plan (2021)' and promote the establishment of a green circular economy
◦ (South Africa) Establish energy efficiency strategies to reduce energy consumption in all sectors through the 'National Energy Efficiency Strategy (2019)' and 'Integrated Power Source Development Plan (2019)'

□ Korean climate technology industry trends
◦ As of 20, the scale of Korea's climate technology industry is approximately $1 trillion in sales, $552.8 billion in private R&D investment, and approximately 67.1 employees in the climate technology industry.
◦ The level of climate technology in Korea is 100% of that of the United States (80%), which is the country with the highest technology.
– Among the reduction areas, the sector with the highest technology level is electric intelligent devices (89%), followed by solar power, fuel cells, marine energy, and transmission and distribution systems.
– Among the areas of adaptation, the area with the highest level of technology is infectious disease management (90.5%), followed by livestock disease management, securing and supplying water resources, water treatment, and water disaster management.
