Energy and environmental aspects of distributed generation and electric-vehicle integration from a LCA perspective. A case study in Mendoza, Argentina
(Corresponding) Arena A.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
The energy sector is moving from a rigid, concentrated system towards a flexible, decentralized one enabling the exchange of energy between many actors. Distributed renewable energy generation is a key player in this new system, offering many advantages, but their intermittent character and the...Read more

Regional Variability and Future Trends in Carbon Footprints of Electric Vehicles in China based on THEMIS Model
(Corresponding) Hertwich E., Wu Z., Wolfram P., (Corresponding) Wang C., Sun X., Sun F.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
This study analyses how carbon footprints of electric vehicles (EVs) in China vary across regions and how they may evolve with power decarbonisation. It is understood that carbon footprints of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) depend largely on electricity mixes, but few studies have quantified...Read more

Comparative life cycle assessment of lithium-ion batteries
Tournaviti M., Savva C., (Corresponding) Vlachokostas C.
Topic:
Life cycle analysis (lca)
The transportation sector is the second largest source of carbon emissions worldwide. In the process of achieving zero emissions, the electrification of the sector and the replacement of internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) with electric vehicles (EVs) is being promoted. Batteries as the...Read more
