Carbon emissions tell only part of the sustainability story.
Our comprehensive environmental assessments also measure:
• Water footprint
• Land use
• Resource depletion
• Air quality impacts
• Waste generation

Any recommendation #LCASky
another great paper is van der Giesen et al 2014.

My research was about synthetic fuels for cars. The results can be seen in the graph. BEA = electrical vehicle, SD = synthetic Diesel, SB = synthetic Gasoline, the black boxes are produced with 100 % RE and the blue boxes with an energy mix for the EU. #LCASky
Oh wow. Actually terrible news. I did some research about that topic. I can recommended you some papers, but first of all you should consider cumulative energy demand over GHG emissions, bc the energy consumption of synthetic fuels is insane. #LCASky
A low-carbon and less resource intensiv transformation could be a sufficient energy system with low energy consumption. #EnergySky #LCASky
On the mineral resources side, it must be noted that simply replacing one energy system with a low-carbon one should not be the solution. We need to pay much more attention to ensuring that raw materials are considered in this transformation. CO2 should not be our only indicator!

The energy-related material intensity consists primarily of coal. It is therefore even more important to phase out coal energy. #EnergySky #LCASky
In this paper, material flows are offset against direct, indirect and hidden material consumption (the total mass requirement (TMR)). The IEA (2017) predicted a tripling of installed electrical capacity in three scenarios (RTS and (beyond) 2 degrees). #EnergySky #LCASky
Very interesting paper on the material intensity of a transformed climate-neutral energy system. It is clear that emissions must be reduced,but this may lead to an increase in the consumption of mineral resources for a renewable energy system. #EnergySky #LCASky

#LCASky LCA
Mostly it's a fun way to compare.
#LCASky LCA
I realised that there is no feed for LCA topics, so I've just created one. Have a look at #LCASky 😉
