A Consumption-Based Approach to Carbon Emission Accounting – Sectoral Differences and Environmental Benefits [PDF]

, 2013
In recent years there has been growing concern about the emission trade balances of countries. This is due to the fact that countries with an open economy are active players in international trade.

Estimation Method of Carbon Emissions in the Embodied Phase of Low Carbon Building

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
The carbon emission at the embodied phase is a complex combination, extending the life cycle of the building, defining the process of the embodied phase scientifically and finding out the direct and indirect carbon emission sources in the embodied phase.

Improving uncertainty analysis of embodied energy and embodied carbon in wind turbine design [PDF]

, 2017
In this paper, a method for improving uncertainty estimates of embodied carbon and embodied energy is presented and discussed. Embodied energy and embodied carbon results are the focus of this analysis due to the fact that, at the conceptual design stage,

Mapping Material Use and Embodied Carbon in UK Construction

Social Science Research Network, 2023
7 The embodied carbon of UK construction is estimated at 43 MtCO 2 e , with 80% from material production 8 and on-site activities. This value has previously been calculated using a multi-region input-output model 9 which models consumption-based ...
