A systematic approach to assess the environmental impact of emerging technologies: A case study for the GHG footprint of CIGS solar photovoltaic laminate

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 1234-1249, December 2020., 2020
Abstract Estimating the environmental impact of emerging technologies at different stages of development is uncertain but necessary to guide investment, research, and development. Here, we propose a systematic procedure to assess the future impacts of emerging technologies.
