Input-output modeling allows to study the possible impacts to environmental and socioeconomic areas from decisions surrounding sustainability and business competitiveness.
By way of two case studies, this report identifies challenges and presents methods for
scenario implementation and indicator development. Data availability is a challenge for
IOA, and must be considered in both indicator development and scenario modelling.
Through the first case study on "Waste-to-Energy and Municipal Solid Waste
management systems in Circular Economy," we discuss how to translate a general
scenario description into an input-output model by determining the type and amount of
monetary changes required within the tables. The second case study on "Veikart for
grønn konkurransekraft i norske kommuner og regioner" demonstrates how impact
indicators may be evaluated and formulas identified for calculation from input-output
analysis.publishedVersio
