The goal of this paper is to identity the sectors with the greatest potential to contribute to reducing electricity consumption. To this end, we apply the analysis consumption multiplier and the structural decomposition on the hybrid Input-Output Matrix between which combines data from the...

This paper aims to analyze the impact of an improvement in income distribution on energy consumption in Brazil, based on structural decomposition techniques. For this purpose, hybrid input-output matrices are constructed to associate the evolution of national accounts with the national energy...

This paper verified the predictive performance of probabilistic record linkage algorithms for the integration big sized real databases, evaluating the effects of the blocking key definition, as well as string metric functions and phonetic code pairing algorithms with respect to the prediction's...

This study aims to analyze the distributional effects of carbon pricing in Brazil. The subject has gained importance with initiatives such as the PMR Brazil Project and RenovaBio, but discussions have been limited to the possible loss of competitiveness of national products. Thus, scenarios...

We examine the extent to which education is a main determinant of affluence in Brazil. We focus on workers in the top 1% of the labor earnings distribution. We use university courses data from the Sample Questionnaire of the 2010 Census. Our main conclusion is that while education may be...
