Electricity mix in ecoinvent 3.3. (zolca version)
Posted: 11 Jan 2017 10:42
Hello openLCA community,
ecoinvent 3.3 cut-off comes with hundreds of process descriptions for electricity generation (production mixes, import mixes, and individual technologies). However, in the imported zolca version they all have the same reference product 'electricity, high voltage', UUID 66c93e71-f32b-4591-901c-55395db5c132
As a consequence, when adding an electricity input flow to a new process one can only select this single flow (next to a few other industry-specific electricities)
How can I 'tell' my foreground system which of the many generation processes or mixes it should draw the electricity from? Is this a bug or a feature?
I checked with ecoinvent 3.2 (zolca), and there is a strict 1:1 correspondence between processes and flows.
Best regards,
Stefan Pauliuk
