Subject(s): Abstract: Vi förutser att vårt arbete kommer att komma till användning för klimat-, skatte- och transportpolitiska studier inom finans- och näringsdepartementen, SOU, SIKA, trafikverken och den regionala planeringen. Databearbetningen syftar till att förbättra tillgången på regionala input-outputdata genom att utnyttja transportstatistiken.Abstract: This project analyses the regional impact of climate policy changes. We analyse how regional growth and environmental effects interacts and how this outcome is affected by a change in environmental policies. We also study the impact of policy changes in Sweden, or in other regions, assuming different scenarios with regard to infrastructure investment. A spatial computable general equilibrium model is developed for the Swedish economy, which also incorporates a detailed transport sector. The work is based on earlier modelling work of the Swedish transport sector, energy taxation and multi-regional models. We anticipate that our work will be used in applied work within various government agencies. Combining recent transport data and a Swedish input-output (IO) table the project will improve access to regional IO tables.
