Carbon Emission Flow From Generation to Demand: A Network-Based Model (2015, methodology): “These methods include statistical methods [4]–[6] and life cycle analysis (LCA) methods [7], [8].”
Adoption of residential solar power under uncertainty: Implications for renewable energy incentives (2015, background): “Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from electricity produced using a solar photovoltaic (PV) system is over 90% lower compared to electricity from substitutes such as oil, coal and natural gas, making it an ideal renewable energy source (Weisser 2007).”
Assessment of sustainability indicators for renewable energy technologies (2009, background): “[19] Weisser D.”
Carbon Debt Payback Time for a Biomass Fired CHP Plant—A Case Study from Northern Europe (2018, result): “This is in line with earlier research and is mainly attributable to longer transport distances for coal [11,27].”
Measuring the progress and impacts of decarbonising British electricity (2017, methodology): “The emissions factors estimated from DUKES are broadly in agreement with other sources (Weisser, 2007; Schlömer et al., 2014), but differ slightly from those presented in DUKES Table 5D as they do not include autogenerators.”
Integrated life-cycle assessment of electricity-supply scenarios confirms global environmental benefit of low-carbon technologies (2014, background): “Existing comparative analyses are based on disparate, sometimes outdated literature data (7, 11, 12), which raises issues regarding differences in assumptions, system boundaries, and input data, and therefore the comparability and reliability of the results.”
