ACCREU / ICES-MH Distributional Impacts of Climate Change and Adaptation Dataset

Public Accelerator folder: This file provides the documentation and persistent access point for the dataset. ACCREU ICES-MH Data Access

Permanent dataset record: Zenodo – ICES-MH Distributional Impacts of Climate Change and Adaptation Dataset.

Summary

This dataset presents the distributional implications of climate change and adaptation in the European Union, assessed using the ICES-MH (ICES-MultiHousehold) computable general equilibrium model developed at CMCC.

The analysis considers climate change impacts across multiple sectors, including sea-level rise, riverine floods, agriculture, forestry, labour productivity and supply, energy demand, health, biodiversity, and wildfires.

The dataset reports changes in household income per adult equivalent, expressed as percentage changes relative to a no-climate-change scenario. Results are provided at the country level for household income quintiles.

Model and Methodology

The analysis uses the ICES-MH model, a multi-household extension of the ICES general equilibrium modelling framework.

Further information on the model is available at ICES Model.
