Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to construct a rural-urban inter-regional input-output table for Indian economy. In the world there are a lot of multi-regional input-output tables for countries, states or smaller regions. However, as long as we know this is the first attempt to estimate a rural-urban inter-regional input-output table. Since many developing countries are characterized by dual economy, we need an analytical tool to investigate the differences in industrial structures and interdependency between rural and urban areas. Using the input-output table we estimated, we conducted a LCA and a couple of scenario analysises to study the effects of energy transition in rural households.
