| General comment on data set | Dataset developed according to Arcadia project Methodology (Report: “Metodologia per gli studi di filiera della Banca Dati italiana LCA”). LCA study of electricity production from solid biomass (Report: “La filiera delle biomasse solide per la produzione di energia elettrica in Italia”). The dataset refers to the production of 1 kWh (=3.6 MJ) of electricity from solid biomass derived from municipal solid waste (MSW), and it is representative of the processing technologies commonly used for this purpose. |

| Time representativeness | |
| Data set valid until | 2026 |
| Time representativeness description | This dataset has been considered valid until 2026, since no main changes have occurred in the electricity production from solid biomass in the investigated years. |
| Technological representativeness | |
| Technology description including background system | The dataset refers to a system that includes the transportation of biomass (secondary data) and the combustion of biowaste from MSW (primary data) in order obtain electrical energy. The power of the waste-to-energy (WtE) plants is between 1 and 70 MW. The primary data were provided by environmental declarations of plants distributed throughout the country, that use municipal solid waste as biomass to obtain electricity, from Atlaimpianti (https://www.gse.it/dati-e-scenari/atlaimpianti), and the GSE (Gestore Servizi Energetici), 2022. Statistical Report 2020 on Renewable Sources. Background data were modelled according to EcoInvent database 3.7.1 |
