- Progress and Perspectives in Photo‐ and Electrochemical‐Oxidation of Biomass for Sustainable Chemicals and Hydrogen Production (2021, background): “Conventional crops used for glycerol production have high impacts from land use change, with very high emissions for palm oil (231 g CO2,eq/MJ), soybean oil (150 g CO2,eq/MJ), rapeseed oil (65 g CO2,eq/MJ), and sunflower oil (63 g CO2,eq/MJ).([462]) These land use change effects primarily arise fro”
- The role of trade in the greenhouse gas footprints of EU diets (2018, methodology): “…the emissions related to palm oil cultivation on organic soils from Malaysia and Indonesia, we use emission factors of 61 t CO2 ha-1 yr-1 from Valin et al. (2015), which are in line with Carlson et al. (2017), multiplied by the share of palm oil cultivation on peatland (Gunarso et al.,…”
- Assessing vulnerabilities and limits in the transition to renewable energies: Land requirements under 100% solar energy scenarios (2017, background): “Of course, these trade-offs will impact other regions of the globe through indirect land use changes, as it has already happened with the promotion of biofuels in the EU (Laborde, 2011; Valin et al., 2015).”
- Renewable Energy Cooperatives as an instrument towards the energy transition in Spain (2018, background): “The promotion of biofuels cannot be seen as a sustainable policy given that, when accounting for indirect land use, the shift to biodiesel production in the EU is worse than fossil fuels in terms of GHG emissions (Laborde, 2011; Valin et al., 2015).”
