Input-output multipliers are typically calculated as point estimates of the Leontief quantity model. From the previous literature, they can also be estimated (and their confidence intervals) directly from establishments'/industries' inputs and outputs data by running an appropriate econometric...

This working paper describes the set of macroeconomic globalisation indicators computed on the basis of the EU inter-country supply, use, and input-output tables, called the FIGARO tables, offering illustrative and explanatory examples.These indicators are crucial for assessing the EU economic...

This report examines the strategic importance of titanium metal for the European Union (EU) economy and explores the potential for increased circularity in its value chain. Recognised as both a critical and strategic raw material under the EU Critical Raw Materials Act, titanium is essential for...

Strategic autonomy can be bolstered by applying circularity strategies such as reducing primary inputs and recycling critical raw materials in key technologies. However, effective actions require high definition at the material or technology level, leading to a non-systematic and often tedious...

This paper presents a macroeconomic evaluation of the impact of the Horizon Europe Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, for which projects have been signed between 2021 and 1 July 2024, using the general equilibrium models RHOMOLO and FIDELIO. The RHOMOLO model simulations suggest...

In response to the energy crisis, which led to high inflation, Romania, like other EU Member States, introduced a series of price-related and income-related measures to cushion the negative impact on households' welfare. Using EUROMOD and its Indirect Tax Tool extension, we assess the impact of...

There are increasing numbers of published articles in the field of input-output analysis and modelling that use the GTAP input-output database; particularly, in relation to the estimation of carbon, energy and water footprints and the analysis of global value chains and international trade. The...

The taxation of energy consumption is a central topic in the current policy debate of the European Union. While raising energy taxation is part of the European Commission's strategy for achieving its 2030/50 climate targets, the ongoing dramatic increases in the price of energy products are...

The hike in energy prices across Europe in 2022 and 2023 led to significant government interventions. Several governments introduced 'energy price cap' measures to alleviate the increased burden on households' expenditures. This paper presents an ex ante assessment of the expected distributional...

Carbon taxes on household consumption can simultaneously increase public funding and promote greener consumption habits, an appealing combination for the just transition plans of the European Union (EU). However, concerns about equity and public support pose challenges. This paper assesses the...
