Embodied Carbon Tariffs [PDF]

open access: yesVeille énergie climat, 2011
Embodied carbon tariffs tax the direct and indirect carbon emissions embodied in trade — an idea popularized by countries seeking to extend the reach of domestic carbon regulations. We investigate their effectiveness using simulations from an applied general equilibrium model of global trade and energy use.

On the Promise and Pitfalls of Optimizing Embodied Carbon [PDF]

open access: yesACM SIGEnergy Energy Informatics Review, 2023
To halt further climate change, computing, along with the rest of society, must reduce, and eventually eliminate, its carbon emissions. Recently, many researchers have focused on estimating and optimizing computing's embodied carbon , e.g., from manufacturing, transporting, and disposing/recycling computing ...

Embodied Carbon in Buildings

open access: yes, 2018
Australia is at the forefront of the development of embodied carbon quantification techniques. This chapter explores the current status of these developments within the global context of embodied carbon assessment. It covers the evolving techniques of multi-region input-output (MRIO) analysis and hybrid analysis, as well as Australian data sources for ...

Benchmarking the Embodied Carbon of Buildings

open access: yesTechnology|Architecture + Design, 2017
Greenhouse gas emissions from extracting and manufacturing building materials, often termed “embodied carbon,” are produced before buildings are occupied and are more critical to meeting global cli...

Reducing embodied carbon in the construction sector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The increasing drive towards net zero carbon has thrown a spotlight on 'embodied carbon' in the construction industry. Embodied carbon refers to the whole life carbon emissions associated with the materials used in buildings, and includes emissions ...

Optimisation of Embodied Carbon and Compressive Strength in Low Carbon Concrete. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel), 2022
To improve the prediction of compressive strength and embodied carbon of low carbon concrete using a program algorithm developed in MATLAB, 84 datasets of concrete mix raw materials were used. The influence of water, silica fume and ground granular base slag was found to have a significant impact on the extent of low carbon concrete behaviour in terms ...

Embodied Carbon Accounting through Spatial-Temporal Embodied Carbon Models

open access: yesCoRR, 2023
Embodied carbon is the total carbon released from the processes associated with a product from cradle to gate. In many industry sectors, embodied carbon dominates the overall carbon footprint. Embodied carbon accounting, i.e., to estimate the embodied carbon of a product, has become an important research topic.

A Building Life-Cycle Embodied Performance Index—The Relationship between Embodied Energy, Embodied Carbon and Environmental Impact

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Knowledge and research tying the environmental impact and embodied energy together is a largely unexplored area in the building industry. The aim of this study is to investigate the practicality of using the ratio between embodied energy and embodied ...
