The project involves the construction and assessment of scenarios for farm scale AD biogas production, in comparison to other bioenergy options, and compare these with two baseline reference farm systems: a large dairy unit in southwest England and a mixed arable farm in east England. WP3: LCA modelling for the production of energy crops. WP4: LCA modeling of biogas productiuon and utilisation
Project
Project code: TI-AT-08-PID1612
Contract period: 01.11.2012
- 31.05.2013
Purpose of research: Inventory & Assessment
The project will deliver an LCA tool for use by DEFRA and other stakeholders to assess the environmental consequences of various anaerobic digestion (AD) and bioenergy options, from a comprehensive life cycle perspective that includes all upstream and land use change consequences. The project involves the construction and assessment of scenarios for farm scale AD biogas production, in comparison to other bioenergy options, and compare these with two baseline reference farm systems: a large dairy unit in southwest England and a mixed arable farm in east England. WP3: LCA Modelling of feedstock production for biogas WG4: LCA Modelling of biogas production und utilisation Attributional LCA modelling in compliance with methodological requirements of Annex V of the European Renewable Energy Directive is applied.
