The activity generating the emissions is railway track construction, for high-speed train. The reference product is railway track, for high-speed train. This is delivering the service of construction, maintenance and end-of-life of 1 meter*year railway track, for high-speed train. The process includes the construction of a ballastless rail track (track bedding, substructures, catenary system) as well as the construction of tunnels and bridges. It is assumed that the infrastructure has a life span of 100 years. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/9972/documentation.

Emission intensity of supply chain (with margins i.e. cradle to shelf) in US dollars spend on: commercial and institutional building construction. This factor is representative of the described goods or services category as defined by the 2017 version of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Refer to the source for the source-specific data quality assessment. Retrieved from Supply Chain Factors Dataset v1.2.

Commercial and institutional building construction

Emission intensity of supply chain in EUR spend on: construction work. Retrieved from the EXIOBASE v3.8.2 model outputs for products. These factors were calculated based on 2019 data. They include emissions from land-use. The split into constituent gases is not provided as the source does not provide a split of gases. The LCA boundaries of these factors are not defined by the source. These factors include effects of international trade.
