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...

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 paper tries to mesure the labour productivity in the Brazylian industry from 1990 until 2009. We do note consider the sectors one by one only, but their supply chains and intersectorial relationships. Besides, we mesure the evolution of labour productivity caused exclusively by...

This paper tries to build and to analyze the evolution of technological indexes in Brazilian chemical industry during the 1985-2009 period. Our main conclusions are the following: the petrochemical emphasis of this industry has stood by; besides there have been an important technological...
