| Abstract | This study analyzes the impacts of medium-term growth
targets in final demand and output using a hybrid input-output
model.Final demand, output and other macroeconomic forecasts were
estimated by incorporating information about them with and
without the Rational Use of Energy Project (RUE ) into the hybrid
input- output model of the Philippines. The impacts are then
simulated on the economy with respect to output, employment and
energy implications on the the diffrent sectors. Results show
that the total output, employment and energy consumption increase
and the RUE project induces more productive jobs but less likely
to reverse the trend in petroleum requirem~nts for the whole
economy. This indicates a need for labor productivity improvement
or capital intensive production to cope with the employment
targets and continued policy and technology advancement in energy
conservation . |
