"The Government of Canada's Fuel Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Model is a tool that allow users to calculate the life cycle carbon intensity (CI) of fuels and energy sources produced and used in Canada. The Fuel LCA Model uses a life cycle approach, which considers the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions involved in multiple stages of the fuel's production process, from feedstock production to fuel combustion. The objective of the following document entitled The Fuel LCA Model Methodology is to explain the methodology used in the development of the Fuel LCA Model. The document describes the general assumptions, data sources, and calculation procedures associated with the development of the Fuel LCA Model"--Preface, page i. Issued also in French under title: Méthode du modèle d'analyse du cycle de vie des combustibles. "EC22081." Includes bibliographical references.
