FIGARO-EXIOBASE updates for Trade-SCAN

Trade-SCAN (https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC120789) is a user-friendly
modelling interface developed in-house by the JRC for the calculation of global value chains
indicators. This tool has already been used by DG ECFIN (Economic Forecast), DG TRADE (trade and
jobs reports) and DG EMPL (employment reports). The tool allows users to choose among different data sources coming from Eurostat, OECD, Exiobase and WIOD in order to compute the requested indicators. At present, one of the databases is mostly focused on the environmental pressures of the economic activities in the EU and it requires an update since the latest year available is 2011. The update of such database (namely, Exiobase) and its incorporation into Trade-SCAN would benefit the analysis of the environmental effects of globalisation and the impact assessments of the new EU Green Deal related policies as well as the Environmental taxation policy of the EU. The members of the tenderer’s team have a wide experience in all these topics. In particular, they have contributed to the development of the Trade-SCAN toolkit under the contracts JRC/SVQ/2018/B.5/0025/OC “EUROPEAN UNION TRADE IN VALUE ADDED, JOBS AND GHG EMISSIONS (EU-TIVA)” and JRC/SVQ/2017/B.5/0015/NC titled “TOOLS AND ANALYSES OF VALUE CHAINS, INCOME AND EMPLOYMENT (TALES)”.

Dr. Cazcarro (ARAID) will contribute to task 1 (particularly Sub-task 1.3) and 2, and will also contribute to the writing of the reports and support the quality assurance tasks. Dr. Cazcarro will devote 50 days (400 hours) to the project.

The team members have also a wide experience in developing methods for the assessment of global value chains and in analysing the environmental and socioeconomic economic effects of economic activities, with more than 100 publications in scientific journals (see CVs) and 12 JRC reports:
