Assessing the gap between a normative and a reality-based model of building LCA

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Endrit Hoxha, Stefano Cozza

Recognized as a powerful methodology for the evaluation of environmental burdens, life cycle assessment (LCA) must be performed with close-to-reality inputs to be robust and accurate. However, the necessary real-world data is hardly available at the design ...

Studying the Dynamic Relationship between Energy Supply Carbon Content and Building Energy Demand

Marilyne Andersen, Emmanuel Rey, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Stefano Cozza

Due to different temporal combinations of energy generation processes, the global warming potential (GWP) of energy supply evolves constantly. Despite this, the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions related to the energy consumption in buildings are commonly asse ...

Integrating hourly life-cycle energy and carbon emissions of energy supply in buildings

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Philippe Couty, Stefano Cozza

Huge amount of energy resources greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is devoted to the built environment. Therefore, an accurate assessment method of these indicators is compulsory. To take advantage of the temporal variation in the primary energy use and associ ...

Assessing the required life-cycle characteristics of electricity storage for ensuring sustainability in buildings

Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz

In high-performance buildings, energy storage is a key component in increasing self-consumption of onsite renewable energy, but is also responsible for extra embedded burdens. The main risk is not paying back these extra burdens through operational benefit ...

Neutral global warming potential target of electricity storage as threshold for greenhouse gas emission mitigation in buildings

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz

Coupling photovoltaic (PV) systems with energy storage (ES) in buildings, enables to increase the building’s energy autonomy and the self-consumption of onsite renewables. ES increases nonetheless the life cycle environmental impact of the stored energy. A ...

Dataset concerning the hourly conversion factors for the cumulative energy demand and its non-renewable part, and hourly GHG emission factors of the Swiss mix during a one-year period (2016 and 2017)

Sergi Aguacil Moreno, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz

The provided data are the hourly CO2-eq emission factors, and the hourly conversion factors for the cumulative energy demand and its non-renewable part for the Swiss electricity mix over one year (2016 and 2017). These data have been assessed on the base o ...

Temporal variations in the primary energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of electricity provided by the Swiss grid

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz

It is a frequent practice nowadays to use mean annual conversion factors (CFs) when performing life-cycle assessment (LCA) of processes and products that use electricity supplied by the grid. In this paper, we conduct an hourly assessment of the greenhouse ...

Development and validation of an intelligent algorithm for synchronizing a low-environmental-impact electricity supply with a building’s electricity consumption

Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz

Standard algorithm of building’s energy strategy often use electricity and its tariff as the sole criterion of choice. This paper introduced an algorithmic regulation using global warming potential (GWP) of energy flux, to select which installation will sa ...
