At a technology level, significant efforts have been made to provide energy solutions that contribute to a sustainable energy system. However, the actual suitability of these solutions is often not checked. In this sense, the assessment of energy systems from a life-cycle perspective is of paramount importance when it comes to effectively planning the energy sector. While environmental issues are commonly addressed through the use of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, the comprehensive evaluation of the economic and social aspects of energy systems often remains ignored or underdeveloped. This book consists of a set of scientific works addressing the analysis of energy systems from a (life-cycle) technical, economic, environmental and/or social standpoint. Case studies at and beyond the technology level are included, some of them involving a combination of life cycle and non-life cycle approaches for the thorough evaluation of energy systems under the umbrella of sustainability. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aactivated Carbons (ACs) 610 $aadsorbate 610 $aalternative 610 $abiobutanol 610 $abioeconomy 610 $abuilding energy simulation 610 $aclean combustion 610 $aCO2 emission 610 $aconcentrated solar power 610 $acost supply 610 $adistrict heating system 610 $aelectrowinning (EW) 610 $aenergy renovation 610 $aenergy system optimization 610 $aenvironmental impact 610 $afuel production management 610 $ageographical potential 610 $aGIS 610 $ahistoric building district 610 $aLCC optimization 610 $alife cycle assessment 610 $alife-cycle costs 610 $aliquid phase space velocity (LHSV) 610 $amulti-criteria decision analysis 610 $anon-edible resources for biofuel production 610 $aScilab simulations 610 $aSimaPro 610 $asolar thermochemistry 610 $asustainability 610 $asustainable 610 $atemperature 610 $athermal energy 610 $awood 610 $azinc (Zn) 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aIribarren$b Diego$4edt$01291784 702 $aIribarren$b Diego$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557295903321 996 $aAdvances in Environmental, Economic and Social Assessment of Energy Systems$93021917 997 $aUNINA
