Life Cycle Assessment of the Byåsen tunnel in Trondheim, Norway - Assessing emissions from traffic and infrastructure
(Master thesis, 2015)The Byåsen tunnel is a tunnel proposed by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration (NPRA), and an infrastructural element in an environmental programme (Greener Trondheim) initiated by the Trondheim municipality, Norway. ... -
Life cycle assessment of transport of electricity via different voltage levels: A case study for Nord-Trøndelag county in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Electricity transmission and distribution (T&D) plays a vital role in society by connecting electricity producers and consumers. We present a life cycle assessment case study of electricity delivery to consumers in ... -
Life cycle assessment of two building alternatives: wood and concrete
(Master thesis, 2020)Byggesektoren er en betydelig bidragsyter til klimaforandringer ved at de er ansvarlige for 39 % av energirelaterte CO2 utslippene og 36 % av det globale energiforbruket i 2018(Global Alliance for Buildings and Construction, ... -
Life Cycle Assessment of Various PMSG-Based Drivetrain Concepts for 15 MW Offshore Wind Turbines Application
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)There are different configurations selected by both industry and academia as the drivetrain for wind turbines in the power range of 10 to 16 MW. The choice of drivetrain system influences the levelized cost of energy, and, ... -
Life cycle assessment of winter road maintenance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Purpose Winter road maintenance in the Nordic climate is demanding due to challenging weather conditions, high precipitation, and icy conditions. As a leading country in the transition to low-emission transport, Norway ... -
Life Cycle Assessment on the Conversion of CO2 to Formic Acid
(Master thesis, 2012)The objective of this work is to provide an environmental assessment of the impacts that the electrochemical conversion of CO2 to formic acid produces. In order to do this, Life Cycle Assessment has been used. -
Life Cycle Based Climate Emissions of Charcoal Conditioning Routes for the Use in the Ferro-Alloy Production
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Renewable reductants are intended to significantly reduce CO2 emissions from ferro-alloy production, e.g., by up to 80% in 2050 in Norway. However, charcoals provide inferior properties compared to fossil fuel-based ... -
