Comparative analysis of attributional corporate greenhouse gas accounting, consequential life cycle assessment, and project/policy level accounting: A bioenergy case study
In order to avoid dangerous climate change greenhouse gas accounting methods are needed to inform decisions on mitigation action. This paper explores the differences between ‘attributional’ and ‘consequential’ greenhouse gas accounting methods, focusing on attributional corporate greenhouse gas inventories, consequential life cycle assessment, and project/policy greenhouse gas accounting. The c...
متن کاملConsequential Life Cycle Assessment of Nitrogen Fertilisers Based on Biomass – a Swedish perspective
The production of mineral nitrogen represents a large fossil energy input in Swedish agriculture. However, mineral nitrogen can be produced in the Haber-Bosch synthesis, with input from renewable energy. This could lower the dependency on fossil energy and the emissions of greenhouse gases in agricultural production. The aim of this study was to investigate the land use, energy use and greenhou...
متن کاملCoupling Multi-criteria Analysis and Life Cycle Approach for Sustainability Assessment of Social Housing in Ecuador
The main objective of this work is to provide a good understanding of the different aspects of social oriented dwellings in Ecuador. Life cycle thinking has been considered as the methodological framework to perform a multicriteria sustainability analysis. The energy performance of four continental models of dwelling was estimated by simulating each dwelling in Design Builder, using weather fil...
متن کاملIntegrated Economic Equilibrium and Life Cycle Assessment Modeling for Policybased Consequential LCA
Consequential life cycle assessment (CLCA) has emerged as a tool for estimating environmental impacts of changes in product systems that go beyond physical relationships accounted for in attributional LCA (ALCA). This study builds on recent efforts to use more complex economic models for policy-based CLCA. A partial market equilibrium (PME) model, called the U.S. Forest Products Module (USFPM),...
