Environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) has developed fast over the last three decades. Whereas LCA from merely energy analysis to a comprehensive environmental burden in 1970s, full-fledged impact and costing models were introduced 1980s 1990 s, social-LCA particularly consequential gained ground first decade of 21st century. Many more recent developments initiated broaden traditional Life Cycle Sustainability Analysis (LCSA). Recently, framework for LCSA was suggested linking...
LCA is a well-known assessment tool that identifies and provides insights on the environmental impacts of products services over their lifecycle. The guidance provided by existing manuals typically applies to modelling assessing ex-post, meaning information available from empirical experience after have been commercially in use for extended periods time. This not if applied an ex-ante manner before technology deployed at scale. We identify major challenges applying propose route forward...
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method that has been applied on numerous different types of product systems. Most these LCA studies concern full-market existing In our common search for more sustainable society, new technology systems are proposed which the environmental sustainability still needs to be proven. These emerging technologies often only function at lab- or pilot-scale, and process data also available scales, not observed scales. Performing LCAs poses challenges because relevant...
Summary Prospective life cycle assessment (LCA) needs to deal with the large epistemological uncertainty about future support more robust environmental impact assessments of technologies. This study proposes a novel approach that systematically changes background processes in prospective LCA based on scenarios an integrated model (IAM), IMAGE model. Consistent worldwide from are evaluated inventory using ecoinvent v3.3. To test approach, only electricity sector was changed internal...
Abstract Purpose and context This paper aims to establish principles for the increased application use of life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA). Sustainable development (SD) encompassing resilient economies social stability global system is growingly important decision-makers from business governments. The “17 SDGs” emerge as a high-level shared blueprint peace, abundance, prosperity people planet, “sustainability” supporting improvements products organizations. A...
