US Environmentally-Extended Input-Output (USEEIO) Technical Content
Technical Considerations, Current Versions, and Other Resources
US Environmentally-Extended Input-Output (USEEIO) models are combined economic-environmental models. The models use data on inputs to and outputs from industries and their final consumption and value added in the form of input-output tables from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). These tables are paired with environmental data on resource use and releases of pollutants from various public sources in the form of satellite tables, as well as indicators of potential environmental and economic impact, using standard algorithms from input-output analysis.
