Abstract

Understanding of life cycle material use from novel technologies can assist informed decision making on technology and material selection consistent with natural physical boundaries. Though an intermediate process in conventional life cycle assessment (LCA), the information on material use is only translated into environmental impact potentials. In this study, we present a procedure to extract the intermediate information on material evaluation and perform a systematic life cycle material use analysis. The approach is then used to analyze electricity systems including electricity generation and transmission, with and without post-combustion carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. Scenario analysis is then performed to understand the relations to the respective annual material production volumes.
