  Most of today's products and services are made in global supply chains. As a
result, a consumption of goods and services in one country is associated with
various environmental pressures all over the world due to international trade.
Advances in global multi-region input-output models have allowed researchers to
draw detailed, international supply-chain connections between production and
consumptions activities and associated environmental impacts. Due to a limited
data availability there is little evidence about the more recent trends in
global energy footprint. In order to expand the analytical potential of the
existing WIOD 2016 dataset to a wider range of research themes, this paper
develops energy accounts and presents the global energy footprint trends for
the period 2000-2014.
