  1. In the Source column, EP indicates that the data source is Energy Perspectives 2050+ ; EX-HH and EX-Tot that the data is from EXIOBASE3 (using only household demand and total demand, respectively); EP-EX that EP2050+ data is scaled up using EXIOBASE3; and Other that another data source is used, as detailed in Supplementary Table 6.
