| Abstract: | Goal, Scope and Background The goal of this paper is to present the modeling of life cycle inventory (LCI) for electric energy production and delivery
in Brazil for the reference year 2000 by application of ISO 14040. Site specific data along with sector production data have
been combined to construct an energy production model, which has been applied to emissions estimation. Background-data of
all the inputs and outputs from the system have been inventoried as follows: gross electric energy generation, installed nameplate
capacity, flooded area, losses, emissions to air / water, process waste, used fuel, efficiency and land use. |
