Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is greenhouse construction, glass walls and roof, metal tubes. The reference product is greenhouse, glass walls and roof. This is an immobile infrastructure, representing the construction of a "greenhouse, glass walls and roof". The infrastructure is modelled based on recent technology (after 2002) and typically covers large surfaces (7 ha in average). It is made of a structure of polyethylene tubes, covered with glass plates, while it comprises of a heating system, fume condenser, a network of steel pipes to deliver heat, a boiler to store hot water and a fertigation system. Its lifetime is minimally 25 years. The process includes input materials, energy consumption, fuel consumption, machinery used and end-of-life. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
