Forecasting the Energy Embodied in Construction Services Based on a Combination of Static and Dynamic Hybrid Input-Output Models

The energy embodied in construction services (EECS) to increase industrial production capacity, contributes to total primary energy consumption (TPEC) in developing countries like China. Forecasting EECS is important for creating energy policies, but has not received enough attention. There are some defects in the main two methods of EECS forecasting: the static hybrid input-output (HI/O) model and the dynamic HI/O model. The former cannot...
