  7. 25. Eco-Efficiency of 35 sectors of Sweden: A Stochastic Frontier Analysis

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

    Författare :Tehmina Batool; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This paper analyzed the eco-efficiency of 35 sectors in Sweden by using an outputoriented Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) model. In the setup of the model, the total output of each sector was used as a good output, whereas Carbon dioxide (𝐶𝑂2), Nitrogen oxide (𝑁𝑂𝑥) and Carbon monoxide (CO) emissions were used as a bad output.
