WHOLE CARBON IMPACT IF THE GRID DECARBONISES
Current Soletair Power Technology carbon impact over the next 20 years in a UK office building
New sorbent and some parts are repaired/replaced
The operational carbon decreases as the grid decarbonises
Total net carbon savings in 20 years: 104 tCO2e
The amount of carbon capture decreases a little over time due to the decrease in efficiency of the sorbent
Starts saving carbon years
Embodied carbon (A1-A4, B3-B4, C2-C4 + refrigerant leakage) Operational carbon (B6) Carbon captured (B1) Net carbon
The average carbon emissions per head for Europe is about 10 tCO2e per year [9].
