  1. 11. Deriving and mitigating the upfront carbon of a large-scale industrial project

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Hugo Jennehov; Nils Olofsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Upfront carbon; Embodied carbon; Construction emissions; Mitigation strategies; Life Cycle Assessment; LCA; Industrial facilities; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : For a long time, the construction and building industries have focused on increasing the efficiency of the built environment and reducing the emissions during the operations of buildings. As a consequence of the decreased operational emissions, the share of so-called embodied and upfront carbon has increased. READ MORE
