Data sources

Two main data sources were used to develop UKEEIO: 

• an Input-Output table, provided by the UK's Office for National Statistics

• a GHG inventory, provided by the UK's Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy

Note on citation

UKEEIO was developed by a standard approach as used, e.g., in the studies below, to which you may refer:

Additional information

There is an expanded version that dis-aggregated the electronic sector into several subsectors — like semiconductors, computers, and computer storage — based on South Korea's EEIO model. You may also request this expanded model if interested.
