Energy

Life cycle assessments are of importance in the development of future energy systems, and climate effects from a life cycle perspective also have an impact on the economic value of an energy raw material. We mainly work with bioenergy originating from agriculture and forestry. Bio-based energy sources often have a complex impact on the environment that also varies over time. The raw biomass can be burned directly to produce electricity and heat, or be transformed through various processes into, for example, liquid or gaseous fuels for vehicle.
