The activity generating the emissions is concentrated solar power plant construction, solar thermal parabolic trough, 50 MW. The reference product is concentrated solar power plant, solar thermal parabolic trough, 50 MW. This is an immobile infrastructure, representing the construction of a concentrated solar power plant, solar thermal parabolic trough, 50 MW. The process represents the construction a power plant for electricity production, with four key units: a collector field area, thermal storage unit, heat transport fluid system and a power block unit. The infrastructure has a capacity of 50 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 reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
