EXIOBASE 3

Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)

Abstract

EXIOBASE 3 provides a time series of environmentally extended multi-regional input‐output (EE MRIO) tables ranging from 1995 to a recent year for 44 countries (28 EU member plus 16 major economies) and five rest of the world regions. EXIOBASE 3 builds upon the previous versions of EXIOBASE by using rectangular supply‐use tables (SUT) in a 163 industry by 200 products classification as the main building blocks. EXIOBASE 3 is the culmination of work in the FP7 DESIRE project and builds upon earlier work on EXIOBASE 2 in the FP7 CREEA project and EXIOBASE 1 of the FP6 EXIOPOL project. These databases are available at the official EXIOBASE website. A special issue of Journal of Industrial Ecology (Volume 22, Issue 3) describes the build process and some use cases of EXIOBASE 3. This includes the article by Stadler et. al 2018 describing the compilation of EXIOBASE 3. Further informations (data quality, updates, ...) can be found in the blog post describing a previous release at the Environmental Footprints webpage. Various concordance tables for the database are available here. For more (background) information see the Readme_v38.txt file. Previous EXIOBASE 3 Versions The previous version 3.7 is also available on Zenodo. The even earlier public releases of the data (EXIOBASE v3.3 and v3.4) are available upon request. We recommend, however, to use the latest version due to major differences in water and land use accounts. End year The original EXIOBASE 3 data series ends 2011. In addition, we also have estimates based on a range of auxiliary data, but mainly trade and macro-economic data which go up to 2022 when including IMF expectations. A lot of care must be taken in use of this data. It is only partially suitable for analysing trends over time! The basic description of the process employed is in the relevant deliverable. As of v3.8 (doi: 10.5281/zenodo.4277368), the end years of real data points used are: 2015 energy, 2019 all GHG (non fuel, non-CO2 are nowcasted from 2018), 2013 material, 2011 most others, land, water. More details are available in the readme file. The EXIOBASE country disaggregated dataset EXIOBASE3rx provides land updates to 2015. Some work is going on to update the extensions, but other collaborative efforts are more than welcome. Bulk Download To allow the download of specific years we uploaded the data as zip archives per year and mrio type (industry by industry: ixi, and product by product: pxp). If you need all data, we recommend the excellent zenodo_get python utility for the download. After installing the tool, you can download the latest version with zenodo_get 10.5281/zenodo.4277368 Previous versions are available by replacing the latest DOI with previous record numbers. Alternatively, you can contact Richard Wood or Konstantin Stadler for access to the Box data repository. Announcements We use the EXIOBASE google group for announcing new versions of the database.
