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 forest, agri-food and agro-industrial solid biomass residues (i.e., biowaste other than Municipal Solid Waste - MSW) and it is representative of the processing technologies commonly used for this purpose. |

Technology description including background system | The dataset (1kWh (=3.6 MJ) Elettricity from solid biomas_other biomass) refers to a system that includes pre-treatment of residual biomass (chipping), transport (secondary data) and the combustion of residual biomass from forest, agri-food and agro-industrial (primary data) in order obtain electrical energy (cradle-to-gate approach). The capacity of biomass treatment plants is between 1 and 75 MW. The primary data were provided by companies belonging to the Energy from Solid Biomass Association (EBS), distributed throughout the country, and the GSE (Gestore Servizi Energetici), 2022. Statistical Report 2020 on Renewable Sources; from Atlaimpianti (https://www.gse.it/dati-e-scenari/atlaimpianti). For wood chip pre-treatment, data were taken from the study conducted by Scrucca et al. 2021 (Arcadia Report "Chain Study - Forest Chips"). Background data were modelled according to EcoInvent database 3.7.1. |
