LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT OF CARBON AND TOXIC FOOTPRINT OF ENERGY CARRIERS OF GAS, HYBRID AND ELECTRIC VEHICLES

The article presents the results of the assessment of carbon and toxic footprint of the life cycle of various types of energy carriers of modern vehicles. The stages of the life cycle of energy carriers along the entire technological chain from the extraction of raw materials to the production of commercial products were determined. A comparative analysis of the full life cycles of various energy carriers in the motor transport sector was carried out. The absolute and specific emissions of CO2 and pollutants in the life cycle chain of motor transport energy carriers per kilometer were calculated. The study reveals the environmental benefits of using gas as a transport fuel.
