Title: Life Cycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Concentrating Solar Power (Fact Sheet)

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1056716· OSTI ID:1056716

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) recently led the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Harmonization Project, a study that makes great strides in clarifying inconsistent and conflicting GHG emission estimates in the published literature while providing more precise estimates of GHG emissions from utility-scale CSP systems.
