Abstract

This article aims to answer the following question: ’How to account for anthropogenic material cycling, energy use and greenhouse gas emissions? More specifically, the challenge is to understand how to model and conceptualise dynamically an input-output model structure that can represent an evolution from the current industrial structure towards a renewable energy driven industrial structure, using an optimal or least-energy (or emission) intensive pathway
