"EXIOPOL: towards a global Environmentally Extended Input-Output Table"
by Tukker, Arnold


Abstract
This paper seeks to present the strategy of an EU –funded Integrated Project of various million Euros: EXIOPOL (“A New Environmental Accounting Framework Using Externality Data and Input-Output Tools for Policy Analysis”). This particularly with regard to its part on environmentally extended input output analysis. The project consists of 37 institutes, is lead by FEEM and TNO, and will run between 2006 and 2010. The project has three principal objectives:
(a) synthesise and develop further estimates of the external costs of key environmental impacts for Europe;
(b) set up an environmentally extended (EE) Input-Output (I-O) framework for the EU-25 in a global context which as many of these estimates as possible are included, allowing the estimation of environmental impacts (expressed as LCA themes, material requirement indicators, ecological footprints and external costs) of different economic sector activities, final consumption activities and resource consumption for countries in the EU;
(c) apply the results of the external cost estimates and EE I-O analysis for the analysis of policy questions of importance, as well as for the evaluation of the value and impact of past research on external costs on policy-making in the EU.

Keywords: environmentally extended input-output analysis, EE I-O, ecological footprint, life cycle impact assessment, total material requirement, supply and use tables
