A linked econometric input-output (IO) model of the Austrian economy with an energy block is used in this study to assess the sectoral effects of carbon dioxide emissions reduction. The energy block and the other commodities are linked by a partitioned IO model. Energy demand is described using...

This paper combines factor demand functions (for intermediate input and labour) and price equations (derived from a Generalized Leontief cost function) with the traditional input-output price model. The cost functions determine factor demands for materials and labour as well as output prices at...

This paper analyses the role of different components of technical change on energy intensity by applying a Translog variable cost function setting with (short- run) fixed capital to the new EU KLEMS dataset for five selected EU countries (Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, UK and Spain). The framework...

This paper deals with the issue of updating input-output (I-O) coefficients within a large-scale disaggregated econometric macro-model of the Austrian economy. Capturing the changes in input coefficients over time is an important issue in I-O modelling due to a lack of recent benchmark I-O...
