    Parametrised life cycle assessment of electricity generation in hard-coal-fuelled power plants with carbon capture and storage
    (2009) Mayer-Spohn, Oliver; Voß, Alfred (Prof. Dr.-Ing.)
    This study investigates the economic and environmental performance of hard-coal-fuelled electricity generation with carbon capture and storage (CCS) over the entire life cycle and thereby reveals both positive and negative aspects. Starting from the state-of-the-art of three power plant concepts with CCS, a technology roadmap of CCS along future time horizons is investigated. The results presented comprise an assessment of several environmental impacts caused by the release of emissions and by the demand for energy and material resources. Furthermore, the outcome of an economic evaluation is shown by quantification of average lifetime levelised electricity generation costs, CO2 avoidance costs and external costs.
