Electricity produced by "others" is allocated to the remaining energy carriers. The transmission/distribution losses and the electricity own consumption by the grid, e.g. pump storage, is considered in the mix process by scaling the inventory according to the own consumption resp. losses.16The data set represents the process to mix the country / region specific electricity production mix, including transmission/distribution losses and the electricity own consumption by the grid, e.g. pump storage.Foreground system:
The national or regional specific electricity consumption mix is provided by the conversion of the different energy carriers to electricity without considering imports from neighbouring countries, as documented in the parameters.
The electricity is either produced in energy carrier specific power plants and/or combined heat and power plants (CHP). Also considered are the national and regional specific technology standards of the power plants in regard to efficiency, firing technology, flue-gas desulphurisation, NOx removal and de-dusting. The electricity provided by non-combustible renewable energy sources also considers the national or regional situation, such as solar radiation (photovoltaic), annual full load hours (wind power), and share of hydro power stations by type (run-of-river, storage and pumped storage).
The fossil power plant models combine emission data from literature with calculated values for non-measured emissions e.g. organics or heavy metals. For the emissions CO2, SO2, NOx, CO, CH4, N2O, NMVOC and particulate matter (PM) measured/calculated data are used, taken from national inventory reports, emission inventory data bases, utility companies and other sources. The calculation of other emissions within the models are based on energy carrier properties, transfer coefficients and power plant thermodynamics representing the applied flue gas treatment technologies and standards (flue gas desulphurisation, dust filter etc.).
The energy carrier supply considers the whole supply chain of the energy carrier from exploration, production, processing and transport of the fuels to the power plants. The supply chain is modelled in specific national / regional energy carrier consumption mixes (i.e. domestic production and imports), and considers national / regional average energy carrier properties (e.g. elemental composition and energy content).
The electricity grid mix includes imported electricity from neighbouring countries, transmission / distribution losses and the own use of electricity by energy producers (own consumption of power plants, and "other" own consumption e.g. due to pumped storage hydro power etc.). The logic of modelling the electricity consumption mix is represented in the flow diagram "Modelling of Electricity Consumption Mixes".
Background system:
Electricity: Electricity is modelled according to the individual country-specific situations. The country-specific modelling is achieved on multiple levels. Firstly, individual energy carrier specific power plants and plants for renewable energy sources are modelled according to the current national electricity grid mix. Modelling the electricity consumption mix includes transmission / distribution losses and the own use by energy producers (own consumption of power plants and "other" own consumption e.g. due to pumped storage hydro power etc.), as well as imported electricity. Secondly, the national emission and efficiency standards of the power plants are modelled as well as the share of electricity plants and combined heat and power plants (CHP). Thirdly, the country-specific energy carrier supply (share of imports and / or domestic supply) including the country-specific energy carrier properties (e.g. element and energy content) are accounted for. Fourthly, the exploration, mining/production, processing and transport processes of the energy carrier supply chains are modelled according to the specific situation of each electricity producing country. The different production and processing techniques (emissions and efficiencies) in the different energy producing countries are considered, e.g. different crude oil production technologies or different flaring rates at the oil platforms.
Thermal energy, process steam: The thermal energy and process steam supply is modelled according to the individual country-specific situation with regard to emission standards and considered energy carriers. The thermal energy and process steam are produced at heat plants. Efficiencies for thermal energy production are by definition 100% in relation to the corresponding energy carrier input. For process steam the efficiency ranges from 85%, 90% to 95%. The energy carriers used for the generation of thermal energy and process steam are modelled according to the specific import situation (see electricity above).
Transports: All relevant and known transport processes are included. Ocean-going and inland ship transport as well as rail, truck and pipeline transport of bulk commodities are considered.
Energy carriers: The energy carriers are modelled according to the specific supply situation (see electricity above).
Refinery products: Diesel fuel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, lubricants and residues such as bitumen are modelled with a parameterised country-specific refinery model. The refinery model represents the current national standard in refining techniques (e.g. emission level, internal energy consumption, etc.) as well as the individual country-specific product output spectrum, which can be quite different from country to country. The supply of crude oil is modelled, again, according to the country-specific situation with the respective properties of the resources.Parameterised unit process to determine the low (medium) voltage electricity production mix for final consumers.Unit process, single operationAttributionalNoneNot applicableNoneAll data used in the calculation of the LCI results refer to net calorific value.NoneGaBi Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Water Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Agriculture Model DocumentationGaBi Land Use Change Model DocumentationGaBi Energy Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Refinery Modelling PrinciplesCut-off rules for each unit process: Coverage of at least 95% of mass and energy of the input and output flows, and 98% of their environmental relevance (according to expert judgment).Electricity production with a share less than 0.1% of the total production mix like: tide, wave and ocean power is not considered.The data sources for the complete product system are sufficiently consistent: The electricity grid mix data are based on national statistics. The key emissions e.g. sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, etc., of the power plants / combined heat and power (CHP) plants are based on measured operating data taken from national statistics. All other emissions from the power plants / combined heat and power plants (CHP) are based on literature data and / or calculated via energy carrier composition in combination with (literature-based) combustion models. Detailed power plant models are used, which combine measured (e.g. NOx) with calculated emission values (e.g. heavy metals). The data on the energy carrier supply chain are based on statistics with country / region-specific transport distances and energy carrier composition, as well as industry and literature data on the inventory of exploration, production and processing. Infrastructure data are from literature. Refinery data are also based on statistical data and measurements of major refineries as well as literature data.
For electricity from non-combustional renewable energy sources, like wind, hydro, solar (photovoltaic) and geothermal, also specific LCA modells are used. LCI modelling is fully consistent.NoneEnergy carrier specific power plants are modelled according to the national / regional firing and flue gas cleaning technology mix. Data measured at representative power plants and being published, have been used to represent the country / region mix of power plant technologies. Also for electricity from non-combustional renewable energy sources, like wind, hydro, solar (photovoltaic) and geothermal, specfic LCA modells are developed and used.NoneRenewables Information 2011Energy Statistics of Non-OECD Countries 2011Energy Balances of Non-OECD Countries 2011Electricity Information 2011eGrid2012 Version 1.0Erstellung der Grundlagen für einen harmonisierten und fortschreibbaren Datensatz des dts StrommixesEnergy Statistics Imports ElectricityElectricity Information 2014World Energy Statistics 2014Energy Statistics of Non-OECD Countries 2014Energy Balances of Non-OECD Countries 2014Energy Statistics of OECD Countries 2014Energy Balances of OECD Countries 2014Statistical Yearbook 2012IEA Wind - 2012 Annual reportWind in power 2012 - European statistics Wind in power 2013 - European statistics The European offshore wind industry - key trends and statistics 2013IEA Wind - 2013 Annual report Statistical Yearbook 2013Energy Balances of OECD Countries 2015Energy Statistics of OECD Countries 2015Energy Balances of Non-OECD Countries 2015Energy Statistics of Non-OECD Countries 2015World Energy Statistics 2015Electricity Information 2015Ermittlung und Evaluierung der Feinstaubemissionen aus Kleinfeuerungsanlagen, 2003US EPA - AP 42 Emission Factors95.02008-2017noneThis process shall be used only in the context of the predefined electricity production plans provided within the GaBi databases.

The documentation includes all relevant information in view of the data quality and scope of the application of the respective LCI result / data set. The dataset represents the state-of-the-art in view of the referenced functional unit.thinkstepIABP-GaBiIBP-GaBiOverall quality according to different validation schemes
GaBi = 1,8 interpreted into "good overall quality" in the GaBi quality validation scheme
ILCD = 1,9 interpreted into "basic overall quality" in the ILCD quality validation scheme
PEF = 1,8 interpreted into "very good overall quality" in the PEF quality validation schemeThe dataset and systems, which are provided with our software and databases for public use into a broad user community, are constantly used, compared, benchmarked, screened, reviewed and results published in various external, professional and third party LCA applications in industry, academia and politics. So user feedback via the online GaBi forum or direct via user information is a standard routine in the maintenance and update process and leads to stable quality and constant control and improvement of data, if knowledge or technology improves or industrial process chains develop or change.GaBi user forumGaBi bug forumGaBi user communityGaBi conformity systemFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantNot definedUNEP SETAC Life Cycle InitiativeNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedILCD Data Network - Entry-levelNot definedFully compliantFully compliantNot definedFully compliantNot definedthinkstepThis background LCI data set can be used for any types of LCA studies.thinkstep2018-02-01T00:00:00.000ILCD format 1.1thinkstepNo official approval by producer or operator2018-02-01T00:00:00.00000.00.001Data set finalised; entirely publishedGaBi databasesthinksteptrueOtherGaBi (source code, database including extension modules and single data sets, documentation) remains property of thinkstep AG. thinkstep AG delivers GaBi licenses comprising data storage medium and manual as ordered by the customer.
