  • Hydropower-Led Economic Growth in Bhutan: Development of Industry-Level Productivity Account, 1990–2022

    Koji Nomura, Contemporary South Asian Studies, Springer, 2025.05,  Page： 259

    　View Summary

    This book provides a comprehensive analysis of Bhutan’s economic growth and productivity dynamics from 1990 to 2022, with a special focus on hydropower development. Through the construction of detailed industry-level productivity accounts, the study addresses significant data gaps in Bhutan’s national accounts, measuring outputs and inputs across various sectors and developing quality-adjusted labor and capital input series. The analysis reveals the complexities of Bhutan’s hydropower-led growth strategy: while the sector has driven substantial economic growth, its contribution to overall productivity improvement has been limited. The electricity sector shows gains in labor productivity but declining capital productivity, resulting in stagnant Total Factor Productivity (TFP). The study also examines productivity trends in non-electricity sectors and addresses potential “Dutch disease” effects on manufacturing and agricultural competitiveness. International comparisons place Bhutan’s productivity performance in a regional context, revealing significant gaps in productivity performance, particularly when compared to India, Bhutan’s largest trading partner and a regional economic benchmark. This comparative analysis informs policy recommendations for achieving more balanced and sustainable economic growth. The findings are particularly relevant for Bhutan’s Thirteenth Five-Year Plan (2024–2029), which emphasizes productivity improvements across all economic sectors. The book serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, economists, and researchers interested in development economics, particularly those focused on the unique challenges faced by small, landlocked nations pursuing sustainable economic development.

  • Energy Productivity and Economic Growth: Experiences of the Japanese Industries, 1955–2019

    Koji Nomura, Springer, 2023.01,  Page： 268

    　View Summary

    Energy costs in the economy amount to only a few percent of gross domestic product, but their importance to economic growth is much greater than their apparent number. Energy is used in almost all production and consumption activities, and energy price changes induce significant spillover effects throughout the economic system. More importantly, stable and affordable access to energy is a critical factor in determining the rate of capital accumulation in a domestic economy and, hence, labor productivity growth. The expansion of production per hour worked is achieved by using more and higher quality capital, which requires more energy to operate. This book aims to provide robust observational facts on energy productivity improvement (EPI) and to analyze the mechanisms of EPI achieved in Japan’s economic growth from 1955 to 2019. Linking the productivity account with energy statistics enables us to attempt not only to develop a better indicator of energy productivity but also to evaluate the EPI with other significant changes in the production process, such as capital productivity, labor productivity, and even the overall efficiency measured in terms of total factor productivity. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and policymakers seeking to understand the role of energy throughout the economy and for economic planners seeking to ensure the efficient use of energy now and into the future.

  • APO Productivity Databook 2024

    Koji Nomura and Mun S. Ho, Asian Productivity Organization, Keio University Press, 2024.09,  Page： 201

    　View Summary

    This seventeenth edition of the APO Productivity Databook describes the quality of economic growth and productivity by providing comparable accounts across countries with different accounting systems. This is intended to serve as a useful resource for policymakers and researchers. Productivity gains, which enable an economy to produce more with the same inputs or to achieve the same output with fewer inputs, are crucial for ensuring sustainable economic growth in the long run. Improving national productivity performance is a key public policy objective, which requires reliable monitoring of past performance. This edition covers more than half a century of Asian economic development, from 1970 to 2022. Additionally, this edition includes projections for economic growth and labor productivity improvements up to 2035. Baseline economic growth and productivity indicators are calculated for 31 Asian economies, representing the 21 Asian Productivity Organization member economies (APO21) and the ten non-member economies in Asia.1 The APO21 consists of Bangladesh, Cambodia, the Republic of China (ROC), Fiji, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, the Islamic Republic of Iran (Iran), Japan, the Republic of Korea (Korea), the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), Malaysia, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkiye, and Vietnam. The ten non-member economies in Asia are the Kingdom of Bhutan (Bhutan), Brunei Darussalam (Brunei), the People’s Republic of China (China), Myanmar, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), consisting of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In addition, Australia, the European Union (EU), France, Italy, Germany, New Zealand, the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (US) are included as reference economies.

  • "Estimating Flexible Functional Forms using Macroeconomic Data"

    W. Erwin Diewert, Koji Nomura, and Chihiro Shimizu

    Empirical Economics (Springer)   2025.03

    Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work,  ISSN  03777332

    　View Summary

    The paper estimates a flexible functional form for a joint cost function using US aggregate data for the years 1970–2022. There are four outputs (consumption, government,investment and exports) and six inputs (imports, labour, machinery and equipment services, structure services, other capital services and land services). Curvature conditions on the joint cost function are imposed without destroying the flexibility of the functional form. Various elasticities of supply and demand are estimated along with technical progress bias terms for each input. When using aggregate time series data based on the System of National Accounts, the paper shows that it is probably better to estimate a joint cost function rather than a gross output function or a GDP function. The paper also shows that assuming that an aggregate production function has constant elasticities of substitution is not appropriate for the US. Finally, the importance of including land as an aggregate input is stressed.

  • "Energy Price Surge and Widening Real Price Differentials in the Post-Pandemic Era: A Comparative Analysis of Seven Major Countries" (in Japanese)

    Koji Nomura and Sho Inaba

    KEO Discussion Paper (Keio Economic Observatory, Keio University)   ( 185 ) 1 - 44 2025.03

    Research paper (bulletin of university, research institution), Joint Work

    　View Summary

    This paper aims to measure and analyze the changes in international price differentials in comprehensive final energy consumption accompanying the recent energy price surges across seven major countries (Japan, China, South Korea, the U.S., the UK, Germany, and France). For measuring international price differentials, we employ not only the Price Level Index (PLI) for energy but also the Real Price Level Index (Real PLI), which accounts for the price differentials of outputs produced using energy inputs. Real PLI is an indicator independent of exchange rate fluctuations. Our preliminary estimates from January 2015 to December 2024 reveal the following observations. First, the US has maintained an overwhelming advantage in real energy price differentials even before the pandemic, with the other six countries bearing energy price burdens 1.8 to 2.2 times higher than the U.S. Second, while energy prices surged similarly across major countries during the global economic recovery from the pandemic beginning in early 2021, the real price differentials relative to the U.S. also expanded in five countries (excluding China) during the same period. These differentials widened to 2.3–2.7 times at their peak and continue to persist at 2.3–2.5 times the U.S. level. Third, China has significantly suppressed energy price increases during this period, particularly for coal and electricity, maintaining its price differential with the U.S. at nearly the pre-pandemic level. As the second Trump administration pursues energy dominance by expanding the use of inexpensive fossil fuels, further widening of energy price differentials and loss of international competitiveness are inevitable if Japan and European countries continue their current decarbonization policies. The Japanese economy should consider shifting toward policies aimed at reducing these international price differentials.

    SBI Research Review (SBI Financial and Economic Research Institute)  7   24 - 36 2025.02

    Research paper (bulletin of university, research institution), Single Work

    　View Summary

    政府はGX（グリーントランスフォーメーション）によって産業競争力の強化を目指すが、その実現のための前提条件は満たされていない。現在、脱炭素技術は依然として高コストのままであり、主要国間の温室効果ガス排出削減の負担格差はさらに拡大しようとしている。この四半世紀のグローバルなサプライチェーンの深化の基底には、削減負担の大きい日本や欧州から負担の小さい中国などへ生産移転が進み、世界全体のCO2排出量は増加する、カーボンリーケージ（炭素の漏れ）が存在していた。2010年代後半からは先進国の脱炭素政策の加速により、弊害はエネルギー多消費製造業に拡大している。GXの創出するグリーン需要は一部の企業に一時的な恩恵を与えるが、持続的な実需とはなりにくい。政策創出需要が減退すれば、日本はさらなる空洞化とともに、高コスト技術導入による生産性低下が不可避となる。脱炭素政策からの転換に備え、企業はバランスのある経営戦略が求められる。

  • "Indirect Steel Trade in the Postwar Japanese Economy" (in Japanese)

    Koji Nomura

    KEO Discussion Paper (Keio Economic Observatory, Keio University)   ( 184 ) 1 - 28 2025.02

    Research paper (bulletin of university, research institution), Single Work

    　View Summary

    Since the late 2010s, when the signs of a full-scale acceleration of global decarbonization policies began to emerge, steel production in Japan and Germany has declined almost linearly. While this decline is generally attributed to weak domestic demand, understanding changes in domestic demand within the steel industry, which primarily produces intermediate goods, requires identifying the sources of final demand. This study examines recent trends in steel production decline while measuring structural changes in Japan's direct steel trade and indirect trade through downstream products in the postwar economy.
    In contemporary Japan, trends in domestic steel demand are heavily influenced by changes in indirect exports and imports, which are not readily observable in conventional statistics. Since the late 1980s, Japan’s indirect exports of steel have exceeded its direct exports. Additionally, the effective import dependence of steel (the sum of direct and indirect imports) has consistently increased since the late 1970s. Until around 1990, this rise was driven by an expansion in direct imports, whereas since the late 1990s, indirect imports have played a more significant role. If the acceleration of decarbonization policies further facilitates the offshore production of downstream products such as automobiles and machinery, the contraction of indirect steel exports and the expansion of indirect imports may lead to a self-reinforcing cycle of deindustrialization, exacerbating the decline in domestic production. Without considering indirect trade, such production decline risks being misinterpreted as merely a consequence of weak domestic demand.

    　View Summary

    本稿は、2018年末以降から現在まで続く日本の鉄鋼生産の急激な減退について、直接輸出入と下流製品に組み込まれる間接輸出入の両面から分析している。そうした生産減退は、欧州や日本を中心に脱炭素政策（カーボンニュートラル政策）が強化され、排出削減が困難であるという技術制約のある鉄鋼業においても従来以上の取り組みが求められるようになったdeep decarbonizationの模索・推進期とおおむね一致している。直近における鉄鋼の構造変化を把握する資料の利用には制約があるものの、近年の生産減退は、海外への生産移転が消極的に同意する環境規制と環境規制の強化が促す生産移転という、意図せざる相互作用とその循環構造によると評価される。現実を直視しない脱炭素政策の加速は、エネルギー多消費的な素材産業にこそ強みを持つ日本経済の産業基盤に対し深刻な影響を及ぼしている。

    　View Summary

    We identify and measure two impacts of industry-level total factor productivity (TFP) growth on aggregate price change in the U.S. and Japan. The first is a standard effect from the definition of aggregate GDP. TFP change lowers aggregate prices ceteris paribus. The second is that a change in TFP in the production of investment goods lowers the cost of capital via lower investment prices. We call this the cost-of-capital effect and formulate an expanded growth accounting framework to capture both effects. We apply it to a harmonized dataset for the two countries and find that the standard effect has fallen since the peak around 2000 due to lower TFP growth and a diminished share of GDP. However, the cost-of-capital effect has risen in importance and offsets part of this decline in the standard effect.
