Dear colleagues,
A short notification that EXIOBASE3 is now available for download from exiobase.eu
best
Richard
EXIOBASE 3 is the culmination of work in the FP7 DESIRE project (www.fp7desire.eu) and builds upon earlier work on EXIOBASE 2 in the FP7 CREEA projected (www.creea.eu) and the FP6 EXIOPOL project.
The papers describing the work in EXIOBASE 3 are coming out at Journal of Industrial Ecology (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/15309290) in June 2018.
The database is available on www.exiobase.eu
The data has aggregated energy and material accounts because of licensing issues with the IEA.
See environmental footprint results.
Documentation:
The main data documentation is described here
This corresponds to version 3.4 of the data for the time series 1995-2011.
There was an earlier release of the data for v3.3 – for some uses, e.g. energy, emissions and material accounting, the data is valid.
However, care should be taken in the water and land use accounts. There were major differences that were corrected in v3.4, and a public release of data for v3.3 will not be made available. Depending on research questions, the data may be impacted.
We also have estimates based on trade and macro-economic data up to 2015/6 as well, however, a lot of care must be taken in use of this data. It is not suitable for analysing trends over time. The basic description of the process employed is in the relevant deliverable:
The data here has different end-dates for the environmental extensions (2011 energy, 2015 CO2 fuel combustion, 2013 material, 2011 most others, incl methane and N20, land, water), and is not part of the main public release. Some work is going on to update these, but other collaborative efforts are more than welcome.
More specific updates for each environmental extension will be provided in relevant publications.
We are continually updating the data behind EXIOBASE with a rolling release cycle. Hence more feedback that is given, the greater the chance of improvements in future updates!
Stay tuned for announcements:
Energy & emission accounts
Energy and Emission accounts are based on the IEA energy balances, but are not always fully consistent with the monetary IO tables (different data sources was used in the disaggregation of the energy accounts) – this does lead to some minor discrepancies in relationships between energy flows and monetary flows. Some efforts are ongoing to fix these.
Household use of energy – this is available in disaggregated form (by EXIOBASE product), but is auxiliary to the main MRIO dataset, as it does not fit that data structure. Similar case for fuel combustion emissions.
Concordances
For useful concordances, please see:
EXIOBASE3 is based on EXIOBASE2
The final EXIOBASE2 database is available on www.exiobase.eu, but note that agricultural emissions are available at:
Final country specific tables of EXIOBASE2 are:

Hi Richard,
First, thank you for this new Exiobase version publication! I have started to look at Exiobase 3 (download version from www.exiobase.eu) and I was wondering: is the Final Demand data in purchase price ("Y" files in zip folders)? I seemed to me that final demand was quite low for trade and transport products in Exiobase 3, compared to trade & transport products amounts in Exiobase 2 that are in basic price.
If Y files are in purchase price in Exiobase 3, what data should we use to convert it in basic price? Are there valuation tables available for each year of Exiobase 3 time series?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Charles
