Evaluation of Sources Used to Develop Data Measuring Freight Flows of Selected Energy Products for the Multiregional Input-Output Model

摘要

The report presents and evaluates the preliminary results of the tabulation of freight flows for selected energy products considered for inclusion in the Miltiregional Input-Output Model (MRIO). These freight flows are an essential component of the MRIO, since they link the transactions between the producing and consuming sectors among the states. The balance between each states supply and disposition is discussed along with the general methodology for completion of the trade flows. Complete documentation of the data development methodology is given. The energy products include, coal, coke and breeze, crude petroleum, residual fuel oil, distillate fuel oil, gasoline, and jet fuel oil.
