The Consumer Footprint aims at assessing the potential environmental impacts due to consumption. The calculation of the Consumer Footprint of the European Union (EU) is based on the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of representative products (or services) purchased and used in one year by an EU...

In this study we address the problem of leveraging mobile phone network-based data for the task of estimating population density distribution at pan-European level. The primary goal is to develop a methodological framework for the collection and processing of network-based data that can be...

This study supports the development of an EU Integrated Product Policy by clarifying which products have the greatest environmental impacts from a life-cycle perspective. A methodology was developed and applied which builds on the methods and results of previous research as far as possible and...

By combining econometric estimations with the calibration of consumer expenditure data, this study estimates a linear expenditure system (LES) for the 27 EU countries. We use the EU Household Budget Survey (HBS) data for the reference years of 2010 and 2015, which provide data for about 275, 000...

This document presents the results of an empirical analysis carried out in order to estimate total expenditure elasticities for the household consumption module of the FIDELIO model. The estimates are based on survey data for the following six European countries: Austria, France, Italy,...

The European Commission (EC) has been developing an assessment framework to monitor the evolution of environmental impact associated to the European Union (EU) consumption. The assessment framework should help to support a wide array of policies, such as those related to resource efficiency,...
