Quantifying Climate Change Effects of Bioenergy and BECCS : Critical Considerations and Guidance on Methodology

Annette Cowie, Kati Koponen, Anthony Benoist, Göran Berndes et autres

ABSTRACT Bioenergy is a critical element in many national and international climate change mitigation efforts, including as a carbon dioxide removal strategy combined with the capture and durable geological storage of flue gas emissions (BECCS). However, divergent results on the effectiveness of …

Lifecycle climate impact and primary energy use of electric and biofuel cargo trucks

Roger Sathre, Leif Gustavsson

Abstract Heavy trucks contribute significantly to climate change, and in 2020 were responsible for 7% of total Swedish GHG emissions and 5% of total global CO2emissions. Here we study the full lifecycle of cargo trucks powered by different energy pathways, comparing their …

Cost Optimized Building Energy Retrofit Measures and Primary Energy Savings under Different Retrofitting Materials, Economic Scenarios, and Energy Supply

Leif Gustavsson, Chiara Piccardo

We analyze conventional retrofit building materials, aluminum, rock, and glass wool materials and compared such materials with wood-based materials to understand the lifecycle primary energy implications of moving from non-renewable to wood-based materials. We calculate cost optimum retrofit measures for a multi-apartment …

A lifecycle comparison of natural resource use and climate impact of biofuel and electric cars

Roger Sathre, Leif Gustavsson

Here we compare the biomass feedstock use, primary energy use, net CO2 emission, and cumulative radiative forcing of passenger cars powered by different energy pathways. We consider the full lifecycle of the vehicles, including manufacture and operation. We analyze battery electric vehicles …

Implications of different modelling choices in primary energy and carbon emission analysis of buildings

Chiara Piccardo, Leif Gustavsson

In recent years, several comparative life cycle analyses have shown that increasing the use of wood in buildings can reduce the life cycle primary energy use and carbon emission of buildings. This study reviews the life cycle inventory methodology of primary energy …

Applying a science‐based systems perspective to dispel misconceptions about climate effects of forest bioenergy

Annette Cowie, Göran Berndes, Niclas Scott Bentsen, Miguel Brandão et autres

Abstract The scientific literature contains contrasting findings about the climate effects of forest bioenergy, partly due to the wide diversity of bioenergy systems and associated contexts, but also due to differences in assessment methods. The climate effects of bioenergy must be accurately …

Climate effects of forestry and substitution of concrete buildings and fossil energy

Leif Gustavsson, Roger Sathre, Uniben Yao Ayikoe Tettey

Forests can help mitigate climate change in different ways, such as by storing carbon in forest ecosystems, and by producing a renewable supply of material and energy products. We analyse the climate implications of different scenarios for forestry, bioenergy and wood construction. …
