Abstract
Biomass resource uses, such as rice husk power plants (RHPP), have attracted great interest of researchers because of their environmentally-friendly features. This study aims to analyze the macro economic impacts of RHPP in Thailand by an Input/Output analysis. Results show that i) the installation of RHPP decreased the sensitivity degree coefficients in the electricity, construction, mining and petroleum sectors, making macro economic structure more robust from change in oil price, ii) the economic merits of RHPP were mainly realized in the agricultural sector, and iii) total induced production effect in the whole country increased by introduction of RHPP, due to a decrease in induced imports and occurrence of new demand in the agriculture and food sectors.<br><br>JEL code: C67, O13, Q20, Q42, Q43
