Using the OMMM-TEK Information-Program-Model Complex in Scenario Analysis of the Development of the Fuel and Energy Sector in Regions: Methodical Aspects

The article describes an interregional input-output optimization model for the fuel and energy sector (OMMM-TEK model complex), experience of its use, and functioning scheme. From the methodological point of view, we show how its application allows modeling and analyzing macroeconomic consequences of reducing coal and gas exports to Europe, presented as various scenarios. The article examines previous experience of OMMM-assisted gas exports modeling and reproduces it in experimental calculations. We compare it with the analysis concerning the ratios between specific coal and gas exports and imports of products  with  high  added  value  based  on  input-output  tables. In calculations, we use a method of linking negative incremental values of re- gional coal and gas exports to the national imports of engineering products  in certain quantitative proportions. We draw a distinction between the concepts of a national economic scenario and situational scenarios. Options for exporting fuel and energy resources are built upon parametric analysis within the given national economic scenario. The article shows that potential GDP (GRP) losses following a  reduction  in  coal  and  gas  exports  and  in  the  imports of engineering products may be rather significant. However, they can be largely compensated by import substitution.
