TL;DR: A scenario-based integrated hybrid life cycle assessment quantifies and confirms the environmental benefits of deploying efficient light sources in all global regions through 2050, with electricity generation following the International Energy Agency's (IEA) BLUE Map scenario for limiting climate change to 2 degrees Celsius as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a real-time consumption-based accounting approach based on flow tracing is proposed to trace power flows from producer to consumer, in contrast to the traditional input-output models of carbon accounting.

TL;DR: The feasibility of dynamic LCA, including full temporalization of background system, was demonstrated through the development of a web-based tool and temporal database and it was showed that considering temporal differentiation across the complete life cycle, especially in the Background LCI system, can significantly change the LCA results.

TL;DR: In this article, a prospective life cycle assessment model is used to analyze the environmental impacts of the technology today, in 2030, and in 2050, and the assessment is based on manufacturer information and generic life cycle inventory data for electronic components.

TL;DR: An enhanced mixed-integer nonlinear programming model for optimal sizing of photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage systems to comply with the definition of a ZEB is proposed.
