We derived indirect energy inputs through multiplying costs by industry energy intensity factors (Table 4), because there is no energy inputs accounting in routine economic data.
Data were gathered from senior managers of commercial firms and the results largely support the hypothesized theoretical relationship that industry competitive intensity influences market learning activity and marketing capability development.
Further, the literature suggests that the benefit of imported inputs differs along a number of dimensions including initial trade status, import source country, export destination, firm ownership and industry R&D intensity (Li and Whalley 2012).
A detailed analysis of learning mechanisms reveals that this path emerged largely due to the nature of "learning by projects" in this industry, engineering intensity of the tasks, and insufficiency of conventional knowledge transfer methods for building design capabilities in complex systems.
Although all studies were comparable regarding the context of exposure (occupational exposure), considerable differences exist in the geographical location, type of industry, and intensity and frequency of exposure to benzene (Table 1).
The first scheme, for big industrial polluters, would force power generators to pay for the closure of a competitor's dirty brown-coal-fired plant, while the second scheme, an electricity industry-specific "intensity based" trading scheme, is similar to one once backed by Turnbull himself.
