1 Industrial Ecology Programme Norwegian University of Science and Technology Cross-border effects of climate change mitigation in a multi-regional input-output framework Kirsten Svenja Wiebe kirsten.s.wiebe@ntnu.no UNFCCC In-forum training workshop: Use of economic modelling tools related to economic diversification and just transition of workforce and creation of decent work and quality jobs April 30 May , Bonn

2 Green Jobs Assessment Institutions Network (GAIN) Founded on a shared 4 step methodology: 1. Climate policy to analyse? 2. Develop national statistics! Global MRIO database 3. Job outcomes at industry level with Input Output! 4. Social impacts with Social Accounting Matrix! 2

3 Outline 1. Introduction Global multi-regional input-output (MRIO) analysis 2. Methodology «What-if» type scenarios in MRIOs 3. Results Cross-border effects of climate change mitigation 4. Discussion Lessons to learn 3

4 Global multi-regional input-output (MRIO) analysis extensions Linking consumers, final and intermediate goods production through global value chains (GVCs) National supply-and-use/input-output tables combined into a global system using bilateral trade data Environmental and socio-economic extensions to the system show impacts of production by industry Main result Environmental or socio-economic impact in region x caused by demand in region y environmental or socioeconomic impact in region a region b region c caused by demand in region a region b region c 4

5 Global multi-regional input-output (MRIO) analysis Territorial Production-Based Accounts (PBA) - Residential adjustment = Residential PBA in accordance with SNA/SEEA* PBA production-based accounts CBA consumption-based accounts Residential PBA + Imports - Exports = Consumption-Based Accounts * SNA = System of National Accounts, SEEA = System of Environmental-Economic Accounting 5

12 Lessons to learn Cross-border effects of EU action 6-degree scenario comparison 2030 to 2014 as proxy for climate mitigation response measure Cross-border effects of global action Comparison of 2-degree to 6-degree scenario in 2030 as proxy for climate mitigation response measure Discussion: Which flanking measures can we derive? Examples Import basket of EU from South America (biomass) and Russia (gas) Economic diversification in fossil fuel extracting and exporting countries 12

13 Lessons to learn What-if type scenarios in a global MRIO Response measures are implemented as exogenous drivers Interpretation of «what-if» scenarios for response measures relative to each other, not in absolute terms It shows what happens without flanking measures Helps in defining flanking measures Only short- to medium-term analysis 13
