Objetivo To help the progress towards sustainable development through the development of indicators of economic and ecological sustainability.The study employs the Evolution of Capital Creation Options model (ECCO) which allows the identification of the strategies and technologies which can lead to sustainable development. Economic flows are expressed as an energy measure and a sustainable development path distinguished from one which is unsustainable. The research integrates the sustainability indicators within the model structure and runs simulations using the "scenarios" on data from France and the United Kingdom. The research consists of the following: i) the use of energy based valuation methods to determine and to evaluate the sustainability constraints to be respected by any economy; ii) from these constraints, indicators are derived which measure the sustainability of a development path at a given time; iii) these sustainability indicators are used in model simulations to provide information about the economic and ecological sustainability of possible development paths.
