The resource rent in Norwegian aquaculture and power production from 1984 to 2018

Extraordinarily high returns in a sector based on the extraction of a natural resource are referred to as resource rents. This report uses the National Accounts from Statistics Norway to investigate whether there have been resource rents in aquaculture and electricity supply in the period 1984-2018. A robust conclusion is that there has been a significant resource rent in these sectors since 2000.
