1 Finnish Swedish Flame Days 2009 January 28-29, 2009, Naantali Environmental Impacts of Energy Production in Finland a Life Cycle Approach Sirkka Koskela and Laura Sokka Finnish Environment Institute

2 Content of the presentation Life cycle and LCA methodology Finnish energy profile Import of fuels Life cycle of hard coal energy Impacts of energy production and use in the Finnish economy

3 A life cycle of a product Manufacturing Extraction of natural resources Retailing Disposal Use of products

4 Two methodological approaches Traditional bottom-up approach Input-output top-down approach Imports Envimat model = hybrid model

5 Life cycle assessment (LCA) Inventory of environmental loads emissions, waste, land use, biodiversity Impact assessment (characterisation). Impact categories: 1. climate change 2. acidification 3. tropospheric ozone formation 4. aquatic eutrophication 5. terrestrial eutrophication 6. particulate matter 7. ecotoxicity 8. human toxicity 9. depletion of natural resources 10. impacts on biodiversity 11. land use
