AB - The Paris Agreement of December 2015 features a bottom-up approach that allows countries to voluntarily set their reduction targets based on the principle of ‘Common But Differentiated Responsibilities’. The agreement also contains provisions on the distribution of discriminatory responsibilities for the reduction of greenhouse gases. However, this type of liability regulations have limitations in a point that it allows countries to respond passively against environmental problems that have characteristics of public goods. Meanwhile, the Shale Gas energy revolution by the US is raising the competition for securing stable energy in Northeast Asian countries, and it is time to cooperate in the region to solve both energy and environmental problems simultaneously. Although Northeast Asia accounts for 35% of world energy consumption, there is no real cooperation body for energy cooperation. This study examines the Northeast Asian Super Grid as a Northeast Asian energy cooperation body to be a bridge to resolve the complexity of climate change and energy security through regime theory. In conclusion, this study suggests that the Northeast Asian Super Grid can seek the solution of the responsibility problem that is pointed out as the limitation of the Paris Agreement at the regional level through ‘Common But Regional Responsibilities’, and it lets regional states respond cooperatively by reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
