Research published by the UK Energy Research Centre

Research by a group of researchers in the Department of Economics and Fraser of Allander Institute was published by the UK Energy Research Centre. This working paper was written by Grant Allan and Andrew Ross as well as Christos Barkoumas and Ashank Sinha, both of whom contributed to the research while studying on the MSc in Global Energy Management course in the Department of Economics.

The research, titled “Success in sectoral export promotion and economic and environmental indicators: A multisectoral modelling analysis” was part of a broader project that looked at the economic, energy, and emissions consequences for the UK of “non-energy” or “invisible energy” policies (Cox et al, 2019). These are policies which, while not explicitly energy-focused, impact on energy use and emissions. The Working Paper examined this from a sectoral perspective, looking at differences in consequences when policies are successful in raising exports for individual sectors of the UK economy.
