Use advice for data set
When using this data set, LCA practitioners should carefully include the relevant energy inputs and material flows as presented in Table 1. It is important to note that transportation assumptions of materials should be critically evaluated and, if necessary, adjusted to reflect the actual situation more accurately. Users should also consider the life-cycle intensities for end-use energy types reported from previous studies, and contextualize these to the specific scenarios they are assessing. This data should ideally be updated with the most recent information available to maintain accuracy in assessments.
