Spatial dimension - ENV-Linkages

In this paper, the GTAP database has been aggregated to 26 regions and 37 sectors . Regions have been chosen to match the ones used by the World Energy Outlook 2021. Economic activities isolate energy activities, energy intensive industries, transport and equipment sectors, while the rest of the economy is aggregated in broad sectors.

Solution concept	General equilibrium (closed economy)
Solution method	Optimization
Anticipation	The ENV-Linkages model is a recursive dynamic neo-classical general equilibrium model, meaning that decision-makers do not know the future when making a decision today. After it solves each period, the model then uses the resulting state of the world, including the consequences of decisions made in that period - such as resource depletion, capital stock retirements and installations, and changes to the landscape - and then moves to the next time step and performs the same exercise.
