Aligning and transforming SUT and IO data for the EU27 and RoW countries in EXIOPOL
conference paper
The main objective of the integrated project EXIOPOL (A New Environmental
Accounting Framework Using Externality Data and Input-Output Tools for Policy
Analysis) is to set up a multi regional environmentally extended input-output database.
Consistent supply and use tables of the EU27 countries and 16 selected Rest of the
World countries will form the input to this database.
For European countries consistent input-output tables are available, based on the
European System of Accounts (ESA95). Supply and use tables are, however, not
available for every EU country. National Statistical Institutes of RoW countries have in
most cases only Input-Output tables available. Besides creating more detail in the
supply and use tables to meet the 130 products and sectors used in EXIOPOL, a method
has to be developed to work backwards from an Input-Output table to a Supply and Use
structure.
This paper presents the transformation steps needed to align the Supply and Use tables
of the EU27 countries and 16 RoW countries. The focus will be on: methodology and
assumptions needed to construct compatible Supply and Use tables out of Input-Output
tables; solving problems with data valuation; and disaggregation methods to create more
sector- and product detail.
Because there are differences in data availability for each country, the transformation
process will differ per country. Practical experiences with the conversion of tables for
EXIOPOL will be presented in this paper.
