Economy-wide models such as computable general equilibrium (CGE) models are powerful tools that provide insights on policy impacts on standard economic indicators. With the recent publication of the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA), the power of this approach is amplified. This article addresses an important gap in economy-wide policy modeling applications and literature by developing a conceptual framework for the integration of the SEEA in the CGE framework, enabling for the first time the analysis of policy impacts on the economy and the environment in a quantitative, comprehensive, and consistent framework. Previous integrated modeling efforts have generally focused on the interaction between the economy and one environmental resource in isolation, requiring significant data reconciliation. Integration of SEEA into a CGE circumvents this resource intense process, enhancing analytical power, obviating the need for strong assumptions in reconciling economic–environmental data, reducing start-up costs, and increasing the timeliness of evidence-based policy advice.

综合经济环境建模的概念框架

诸如可计算一般均衡 (CGE) 模型之类的经济范围模型是强大的工具，可以提供有关政策对标准经济指标影响的见解。随着最近发布的环境经济核算系统 (SEEA)，这种方法的威力得到了放大。本文通过开发将 SEEA 纳入 CGE 框架的概念框架，解决了整个经济政策建模应用和文献中的一个重要差距，从而首次能够定量分析政策对经济和环境的影响。 ，全面且一致的框架。以前的综合建模工作通常侧重于孤立的经济和一种环境资源之间的相互作用，需要大量的数据协调。
