Carbon Credits Through Wood Use: Revisiting the Maximum Potential and Sensitivity to Key Assumptions
We investigated how large and uncertain avoided fossil‐based emissions and net sequestration of carbon into the technosphere (TCCs = technosphere carbon credits) of wood use per carbon harvested are. The mean value of TCCs of wood use were between 0.2 and 0.5 tC/tC with an uncertainty range from 0.1 to 0.8 tC/tC, depending on the scenario.
