This paper assesses the low-carbon economy in Asia, including how large it is today and how well it will fare in the future. Using patent and trade data, the authors analyze the potential of Asian economies to capture value from the design and export of low-carbon technologies, acknowledging that these are only two dimensions of a multidimensional low-carbon economy. They conduct country-level analysis to identify which technologies different countries can specialize in and potentially scale up.
