Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. This is an immobile infrastructure representing the construction of a concentrated solar power plant solar tower 20 MW. The process represents the construction a power plant for electricity production with five different units: collector field area receiver system thermal storage unit steam generation system and a power block unit. The infrastructure has a capacity of 20 MW and a lifetime of 30 years. Further site preparation activities are also included in the dataset (e.g. clearing shrubs construction of roads fences providing water connectivity). The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
