Few areas of economics are more relevant to current policy than energy and environmental economics. Climate change and other environmental issues are top priorities for national governments and multilateral organizations. And since energy use is the primary source of carbon emissions, addressing climate change requires a detailed understanding of often complex energy markets. 
 
The 32nd TRIO conference, jointly sponsored by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), the Tokyo Center for Economic Research (TCER), and the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR), will focus on energy and environmental economics.  The conference will be organized by Joshua Hausman (NBER), Kenichi Ueda (CEPR), and Shin-ichi Fukuda (TCER).  It will include roughly 6-8 paper presentations, and it will be held in Tokyo on Saturday-Sunday, April 26th – 27th, 2025.  The conference will conclude by 12:30pm on Sunday April 27th, thus allowing international participants to fly back on that day. 
 
Papers presented at the conference may be submitted to a special issue of the Journal of the Japanese and International Economies (JJIE), and authors are encouraged to consider this outlet for their work. If a paper is published in the JJIE, the author(s) will receive a total honorarium of JPY200,000, which can be divided among multiple authors.  Papers submitted to the JJIE will undergo the normal journal reviewing process. 

The submission deadline was Thursday, 9 January 2025, 17:00 GMT
  
 Workshop attendance is by invitation only. For CEPR authors, please direct questions to Kenichi Ueda ([email protected]).
