“About this document”
This document covers relevant changes in the upgraded LCI datasets of the GaBi Databases. The
document will address both methodology changes and changes in technology, if any, and is struc-
tured by material or topic, e.g. electricity, metals, plastics, renewables. It covers newly added da-
tasets to the database as well.
In the Annex you will find the list of datasets which will no longer be updated.
thinkstep uses a professional issue tracking software (JIRA). The issue numbers in the tables are
issue numbers from this software.
In the following paragraphs, you will find a short summary of the most important changes that
took place in this years’ upgrade.
Below are important database wide changes done in the 2018 database edition:
- Energy update: all energy related datasets such as electricity, thermal energy, fuels and
alike have been updated, in line with the latest available, consistent international energy
trade and technology data. Please see Chapters 2.4 and 2.5 for more information and
further details.
- Particles are characterized using different particle sizes. Due to increased political aware-
ness and environmental insights, specific particle sizes are of growing interest. To
acknowledge this development the flow “Dust, unspecified” was rededicated to the com-
monly used flow “Dust (PM10), which covers all particle sizes from PM10 down to the
smallest, respectively.
- Halogenated substances: Since the use of certain halogenated substances is banned
following the implementation of the Montreal Protocol, the following emissions are not pre-
sent anymore in the updated thinkstep datasets: Halon (1301), R 11 (trichlorofluoro-
methane), R 114 (dichlorotetrafluoroethane) and R 12 (dichlorodifluoromethane). This con-
sequently reduces the impact factors for ODP for many datasest in the database.
- Primary energy correction of wood and wooden datasets: when using an economic alloca-
tion along the life cycle, the primary energy needs to be adjusted to guarantee a proper energy
balance. For wood and wooden datasets the primary energy has been adjusted based on the
fresh mass of the related material considering the upper calorific value. The related elementary
flow documenting the renewable primary energy is the flow “Primary energy from solar energy”.

Additionally, the following issues resulted in noteworthy changes (some related to only one
impact category), which we would like to highlight:
- Natural gas mix: The environmental profile of several natural gas mixes will be re-
duced or increased, depending on the updated country-specific situation, e.g. update
of flaring & venting emission gas values, update of gas and diesel combustion respec-
tively the emission factors, the update of country-specific shares of conventional and
unconventional natural gas production, updated country-specific consumption mixes
(domestic production and imports), update of gas transport, transmission and distribu-
tion via pipeline. From the aforementioned changes, the most relevant are the updated
transport and distribution data in the international and local context, distributing natural
gas products via LNG tanker and pipeline network. GWP decreases or increases on a
still very low absolute level, however this leads to a relative change of - 20% to 60%.
Please note, this only applies to the natural gas, if looking at thermal energy from nat-
ural gas, the increases are negligible, as the combustion emissions are dominant.
- US Thermal energy and steam from hard coal: process steam and thermal energy
from hard coal for US was corrected. The GWP per MJ increases from about 7E-3 kg
CO2-eq. to 1E-1 kg CO2-eq. for process steam and from 6.5E-3 kg CO2-eq. to 9.6E-2
kg CO2-eq. for thermal energy.
- Water use and consumption in direct/indirect electricity datasets: the allocation of
the water use and consumption only for direct and indirect scope datasets (see direct
or indirect in dataset name) was missing. Consequently, the water balance of this spe-
cific direct and indirect electricity datasets is now correct.
- Truck emission profile and default utilization rate update: the transportation da-
tasets and especially the trucks were updated this year. If the user adapts existing
models to the new default utilisation rate, impacts will be significant, as the default rate
is reduced from 85% to 61%/50% respectively. The user chosen utilization rate in ex-
isting models is untouched. New models set up by the user will show the new default
values 61%/50%, however can be changed to any desired value.
4
Depending on the user chosen utilization rate impacts may vary more or less. Latest
information from the German Federal Motor Transport Authority1 was used. Every truck
size (i.e. payload capacity) now has a different utilization factor. Please be aware, the
previous 85% utilization rate used in every truck is not used anymore per default! The
utilization rate decreased, it now ranges from 0.5 to 0.61.
- Update of precious metals: using consistent price information from USGS, the 10
year average mean price used for economic allocations for PGM (Platinum Group Met-
als) has been updated. The allocation method used in the PGM refinery has been
changed only in the last step (precious metals separation) to a mass allocation from
the previously used economic allocation in alignment with the practice of the related
association. All other steps remain unchaged. When analysing GWP this alignment
leads to following changes: Palladium increases by 135%, Rhodium decreases by
62%, Platinum decreases by 17%.
- Update of silver refining process: the dataset is reflecting the improved final refining
step in the silver production. Where applicable, the amount and type of chemicals used
in the extraction of the precious metals from the anode sludge have been updated to
the current technology. The impacts of silver decrease notably, GWP by about 77%.
- Harmonization and update of waste incineration technology: the waste incinera-
tion technology for Germany and EU-28 has been intensively analysed, supported by
related associations, and has been updated and harmonized.
- Price update for renewable products: for a substantial amount of renewable products
using economic allocation, the prices have been updated.
- Carbon adaption for bioplastics: the carbon content of all bio based plastics is now
harmonized and adapted to the actual bio carbon content.
- Deionised water updated: the production process of deionised water has been up-
dated after an intensive recherche. The amount of chemicals and energy was previ-
ously overestimated, as the average amount of ions present in the water inflow was
considered too high. The update leads to a substantial decrease in all impact catego-
ries, as the demand of chemicals and energy decreases (GWP about - 60%).
- Brick and roof tile datasets updated: the brick and roof tiles datasets have been
updated. Energy use was increased for facing bricks and lowered for roof tiles, due to
1 KRAFTFAHRT-BUNDESAMT: Verkehr deutscher Lastkraftfahrzeuge (VD), Gesamtverkehr. Dezember, 2014.
5
updated information available. Additionally, the mass balance has been corrected. Ger-
man and European bricks increase in GWP by about 30%, Chinese bricks by about
70%. Roof tiles decrease by about 23%.
- Pipe works in heat pumps water/water and brine/water: the pipework diameter for
the water/water and brine/water heat pumps have been overestimated. The pipe diam-
eter has therefore been recalculated and adapted, which decreases the impact of
needed piping material. GWP decreases between 30% and 70% depending on the
heat pump system size for water-water heat pumps, and about 90% for geothermal
collectors.
- Particulate matter emissions for minerals mining: Following the abovementioned
increased political awareness and environmental insights concerning particulate mat-
ter, quartz sand, gravel, limestone and similar mineral mining activities have been up-
dated.
- Particulate matter in sawmill: the particulate matter emissions of fine particles from
the saw mill were overestimated by a factor of about 10. This has been corrected.
Further details and the related reasoning is provided in Chapter 2 ff.

1 Introduction to the upgrade of databases available
with GaBi
In total over 30 employees of thinkstep were involved in the upgrade of several thousand unit pro-
cesses and aggregated LCI datasets. The invested time, knowledge and dedication of our employees
resulted in the new GaBi Databases 2018 Edition with more than 11,600 LCI process datasets (949
of which are new).
The process of continuous upgrades to the GaBi Databases is enabled and supported with domain
expertise along the team structure within thinkstep which is illustrated in the figure below.
Figure 1: Process structure in GaBi databases
In the GaBi Databases, process documentation is directly integrated in the datasets. Additional infor-
mation about the modelling principles applied to all datasets can be found in the document GaBi Da-
tabase and Modelling Principles2. Further, specific modelling information on specific topics can equally
be accessed on the GaBi Sofware website.
This document covers relevant changes in the upgraded LCI datasets of the GaBi Databases. The
document will address both methodology changes and changes in technology, if any, and is structured
by material or topic, e.g. electricity, metals, plastics, renewables. In general, all thinkstep related da-
tasets have been upgraded.

Methodological changes are not endorsed by thinkstep but introduced if necessary. Methodological
changes are only useful if these changes or improvements are supported by relevant best practise
cases, evolving or edited standards or relevant stakeholder initiatives with a respective practice ap-
proval.
2 GaBi Databases 2018 Edition
“Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored” Aldous Huxley.
thinkstep introduced the annual upgrade of the GaBi databases for three reasons:
• To keep your results as up-to-date and close to the evolving supply chains as possible; includ-
ing automated upgrades of your valued work to the most current state.
• To avoid disruptive changes caused by multiyear intervals that are often hard to communicate
and interpret.
• To keep track on necessary methodological changes and implement them promptly.
thinkstep databases are based on technical facts and internationally accepted and broadly applied.
Standardized methods are used as a preference, which are established in industry, science and reg-
ulatory authorities. New methods are applied, if these have proven to be based on a relevant standard,
on broadly and internationally accepted approaches, or when enforced by relevant regulations.
Changes in datasets are often the result of many effects in the supply chain. But “technical” reasons
should be carefully separated from methodological reasons. Necessary methodological adoptions due
to evolving standards, knowledge and frameworks may be useful; however GaBi databases do not
undertake methodological trials on the back of databases that aim to reflect technological reality.
Changes in the environmental profile of the datasets from the predecessor GaBi Databases to the
most recent GaBi Databases may be attributed to one or more of the following factors:
• Upgrade of the foreground and/or background systems. The market situation, applied or
newly available technology creates different impacts. The environmental profile for the supply
of energy carriers or intermediates may be subject to short-term changes and affects the en-
vironmental profile of virtually all materials and products by varying degrees. For example a
change of energy carrier mix or efficiency for electricity supply changes the environmental
profile of all materials or products created using that electricity supply.
• Improvements and changes in the technology of the production process. Improvements
or developments in production processes might achieve for example higher energy efficiency,
through the reduction of material losses and process emissions. Sometimes, the technology
is subjected to higher quality requirements that are defined further downstream at the products
(e.g. more end-of pipe measures to reduce emissions, higher desulphurization of fuels) and
improved use phase performance. In addition, certain production routes might have been
phased out, changing the production mix of a certain material, substance or energy. A fre-
quently changing and quite dynamic example is the electricity grid mix datasets, as some
13
countries try to reduce or phase-out certain types of energy or fuels in the electricity supply
mix, which require the introduction of alternative sources of fuels and energy.
• Further standardization and the establishment of regulative modelling approaches.
Modelling of realistic technology chains has always been the core focus of the GaBi database.
Some topics have attracted more attention, such as water and waste. Further harmonisation
and improvement in the LCA methodology and feedback from clients and employees have
enhanced the modelling approach for the GaBi Databases. Detailed information is given in the
document GaBi Database and Modelling Principles3. Methodological adoptions are carried out
extremely carefully, passing through multiple levels of reviews by thinkstep experts responsible
for standardization, technology knowledge and quality assurance. This internal review process
was audited within the continuous improvement process by our external verification partner.
GaBi database updates and upgrades focus on reliability through consistency to ensure clients
system models and results are not jeopardised due to random methodological changes.
The degree of influence of each of these factors is specific to each process and cannot be generalised
for all cases nor can a single factor be highlighted. However as technological excellence is a core
value of thinkstep data, the focus is to update and apply ALL RELEVANT AND IMPORTANT improve-
ments and changes in technology and the supply chain and THE NECESSARRY AND ESTABLISHED
improvements and changes in the methodology.
Supply chain modelling of a single material involves hundreds or even thousands of single operations.
Therefore even opposing effects (improvements of some processes and higher impacts of other pro-
cesses along the chain) may occur.
GaBi systems e.g. leading to a single aggregated dataset consists of multiple datasets within one
supply chain. This means users could find many reasons for changes within a single supply chain.
GaBi models must be able to reflect in first instance the necessary complexity of the reality, in order
to be able to provide realistic data. Reduction of complexity is only credible, if the reality of the supply
chains is still mirrored adequately. The change analysis is a time consuming but important process
within thinkstep and the results are documented in this report.
However, the relevance of changes in the GaBi database related to the users own systems is highly
dependent on the goal and scope in the specific user application. This means the same dataset may
lead to significant changes for a certain user, whereas in another users system the changes might be
irrelevant. To shorten the time for users to reflect on the relevancy of the GaBi databases changes for
their own systems, the analyst function of GaBi Software may support in an effective way. To guide
users to the relevant changes in their models due to changes in external factors and GaBi background
data upgrades, thinkstep provides additionally the document “Database Upgrade, Updates and im-
provements” in addition to the document “GaBi Database and Modelling Principles” and over 11.000
interlinked electronical documentation files supplied with thinkstep databases.

The following sections will address the most relevant changes in the GaBi Databases for the different
areas.
2.1 Regionalization
2.1.1 Land Use
For land use assessment, the regionalization in mining and renewable resources datasets (agricultural
and wood biomass) which cover the most important sectors of land occupation and transformation
was further implemented and harmonized. Land use inventory flows for all cultivation and forestry
processes as well as open pit mining processes were checked, updated and missing information in-
tegrated. Land occupation [m²*a] and land transformation [m²] inventory information for open pit min-
ing processes were improved through updating the production quantity and size of open pit mines.
Thus a more comprehensive evaluation of land use impacts is possible.
2.1.2 Regionalized Water
In order to regionalize the foreground system regarding water assessment regionalization “dummies”
were integrated into the database. The regionalization dummy processes allow you to select the re-
gion (country) in which the foreground system is modelled. For the flow types used in the p-agg pro-
cesses a dummy process exists (input: ground water, river water, lake water; output: processed water
to groundwater, processed water to lake, processed water to river). For further information please see
the documentation “Introduction to Water Assessment in GaBi”.
2.2 LCIA Method updates
2.2.1 ReCiPe 2016 v 1.1
Secondary particle formation: secondary particle formation from emissions of ammonia and NOx to
the ‘Fine Particulate Matter’ impact in the default (H) perspective has been included by the ReCiPe
Method developers. This adds on average 80 % to the particle impact on 30 tested GaBi datasets –
ranging from +6 % to +550 %.
Marine eutrophication added by the ReCiPe Method developers: this was not in 2016 ReCiPe version,
which only contained the freshwater impact.
Terrestrial ecotoxicity: factors changed by the ReCiPe Method developers because of exclusion ef-
fects on urban soil.
Human non-carcinogenic toxicity: factors changed by the ReCiPe Method developers due to model
error found by the method developers.
15
2.2.2 USEtox V 2.1
The model was updated from the authors’ side. Normalization and weighting is not yet available, so a
comparison to other impacts is not possible. The same amount of flows are evaluated of which ~500
are used and hence implemented in GaBi
The changes compared to previous USEtox 2.01 are as following:
• Average change on 30 tested GaBi datasets shows lower results. Average change is -0.1 %
to -3.7 %, depending on specific USEtox impact.
• A few outliers have changes from -35 % to +35 % on a specific impact but no general trend.
Only 9 out of 180 data points (30 datasets x 6 impacts) show changes above +/- 10 %.
2.2.3 Odour impact
The impact category Odour is now available. It is an areal indicator (odour footprint) expressed in
H2S-eq., taking into consideration the odour detection threshold, the diffusion rate and the kinetics of
degradation. 33 flows are calculated. The method was implemented in MATLAB and used in a case
study of a pig barn.
2.2.4 LANCA land use
The LANCA land use characterization factors V2.3 were implemented (SP34).
Additionally two occupation flows which were also implemented as transformation flows (leading to
relevant double counting of land use) are corrected. Due to this correction, a reduction on land use
impacts can be seen.
2.3 New datasets
With this years’ upgrade, 949 new processes and 35 new plans are available:
Professional DB:
34 new plans, 189 new processes
World region transport mix plans, Euro 6 passenger cars, Updated fuel economy
US trucks, Wood data and an example plan on how to set up regionalized water
flows for the foreground system.

XX “Food&Feed”, XXI „India“, XI “Electronics, Ib “Inorganics”: jointly 1 new
plan and 14 new processes
2.4 Inventories for electricity, thermal energy and steam
Relevant changes in energy carrier mix for electricity generation after the upgrade
In the GaBi databases 2018, the reference year is 2014 for all electricity grid mixes and energy carrier
mixes (hard coal, crude oil and natural gas). The electricity grid mixes in the Extension Module XVII:
Full US (electricity grid mixes for US sub grids and sub regions under eGRID) have been updated
from reference year 2013 to 2014 using the most recent version of eGRID [EPA 2017].
Relevant changes in the life cycle inventory (LCI) of the upgraded national grid mix datasets occur for
a couple of countries due to changes in the energy carriers that were used for electricity generation,
as well as changes in the amount of imported electricity and the country of origin of these imports.
The changes in the LCI data sets reveal the following trends:
• An ongoing trend in some countries, to increase the share of renewable energies in their elec-
tricity generation, which is for example observable for Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany,
Great Britain, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Romania or Spain.
• Annual fluctuation in electricity generation from hydropower (availability of water for electricity
generation) due to climate conditions. In 2014, lower water availability for hydropower com-
pared to 2013 resulted in higher shares of fossil fuels for example in Brazil, France, Greece,
Latvia, or Turkey. In contrast, higher water availability in Argentina, Croatia, Italy, Romania or
Slovenia resulted in distinct higher electricity output from hydro power plants.
17
• As in the years before, several transition countries have an ongoing demand for incremental
electricity production. In countries like China, India, Brazil, Indonesia or Turkey, the electricity
production has increased by 4 to 8 %. In China, in contrast to previous years, the incremental
electricity was not covered by electricity from coal. Around two third of the 220 TWh of the
incremental electricity generation (5,679 TWh total gross production) was generated by hydro-
power. In 2014, around 25 GW of new installed hydropower plants have been connected to
the grid. Thereof, with 13.8 GW installed capacity, the hydro power plant Xiluodu, the third
largest hydropower plant in the world [IHA 2015]. The remaining incremental electricity in
China was predominantly generated from wind, photovoltaic, nuclear and natural gas. In India,
Indonesia and Turkey, the incremental electricity was produced from fossil fuels, mostly coal
or natural gas. In Brazil, 70 % of the incremental electricity was produced from fossil fuels, the
remaining from biomass and wind.
The following three figures present the development of the energy carrier mix for electricity generation
in Germany, the European Union and the United States between 2000 and 2014.
18
Figure 2: Development grid mix in Germany (left) and EU-27 (right) [Eurostat 2016]
Figure 3: Development grid mix United States [EIA 2017]
Compared to 2013, the use of renewable energy sources for electricity generation in Germany has
increased from 25.1 % to 27.0 %4 in 2014. Main driver for the increase in renewable energies was
electricity from wind and photovoltaic. Generation from combustible, fossil fuels decreased from
58.5 % to 56.4 %.
The substitution of natural gas for power generation is an ongoing trend in the European Union also
in 2014. The share of power generation from natural gas dropped from 15.7 % in 2013 to 14.5 % in
4 50 % of electricity from waste is accounted as renewable energy
19
2013 (22.8 % in 2010). The natural gas was mainly substituted by generation from renewable ener-
gies. The generation from renewable energy carriers increased from 27.4 % in 2013 to 29.4 % in 2014.
The increase was mainly driven by higher generation from wind, photovoltaic and biomass.
In the U.S., only slight changes in the electricity grid mix occurred between 2013 and 2014.
In the following tables, the energy carrier mix for 2013 and 2014 are displayed for selected, noteworthy
countries, or those with important changes.

The following list summarises countries with significant changes in the energy carrier mix for electricity
generation:
• Argentina (AR) � Due to higher generation from hydropower plants (increase from 22.5 % to
29.2 %), the share of natural gas for electricity generation decreased from 54.3 % to 47.6 %.
• Chile (CL) � Significant higher generation from renewable energies (increase from 35.7 % to
41.3 %, mainly due to higher output from hydro power, resulted in an decrease of electricity
from natural gas from 41.5 % to 35.4 %.
• Croatia (HR) � Higher output from hydropower plants (increase from 60.4 % to 67.3 %) re-
sulted in a decrease of natural gas use for electricity generation from 15.0 % to 7.4 %.
• Denmark (DK) � An ongoing trend to increase the installed wind capacity and a higher rate
of annual full load hours resulted in a distinct higher share of wind power at the grid mix (in-
crease from 32.0 % to 40.6 %). The share of renewable energies increased from 45.8 % in
2013 to 55.6 % in 2014, substituting mainly electricity from hard coal.
• France (FR) � As a consequence of higher output from nuclear power stations, the use of
combustible, fossil fuels have been reduced from 7.8 % to 4.7 %.
• Great Britain (GB) � Output from all renewable energy technologies raised, resulting in an
increase from 15.8 % in 2013 to 20.3 % in 2014. As a consequence, electricity from hard coal
dropped from 36.4% to 26.6 %.
• New Zealand (NZ) � Output from renewable energies increased from 74.3 % to 79.2 %, re-
ducing the generation from combustible, fossil fuels from 25.7 % to 20.8 %.
• Romania (RO) � Generation from renewable energies increased from 34.8 % to 42.0 % (re-
newables without hydropower increased from 8.8 % to 12.7 %). The substituted energy carri-
ers were mainly natural gas, nuclear and lignite.
• Slovenia (SI) � Due to higher output from hydro power stations, the share of electricity from
lignite has been reduced from 27.8 % to 19.3 %.
• Turkey (TR) � The share of combustible, fossil fuels increased from 71.1 % to 79.1 % due to
lower output from hydro power plants and incremental electricity demand.
Development GWP and other impact categories for electricity grid mix datasets
The following figures illustrate the absolute primary energy demand (PED), as well as global warming
potential (GWP5), acidification potential (AP5), eutrophication potential (EP5) and photochemical ozone
creation potential (POCP5) per kWh of supplied electricity in Germany, the European Union and the
5 CML 2001, Updated January 2016

United States. In the 2018 edition databases, the emission factors for the combustion of fuels in power
plants have been kept unchanged compared to the 2017 edition, with exception of the eGRID sub
regions (Extension Module XVII: Full US - electricity grid mixes for US sub grids and sub regions under
eGRID) for which new data from eGRID 2014 was available. Therefore, the results are mainly influ-
enced by the changes in the energy grid mix as well as by changes in the power plant efficiencies and
supply chains. One exception are the site distribution of dust emissions for countries which do not use
or do not fully use dust filters in coal power plants and power plants using heavy fuel oil. In the 2017
database, the share of PM2.5 and PM2.5-10 was overestimated, which is corrected in the 2018 database
(the overall amount of dust emissions remained stable)
In Germany, the GWP for the electricity mix slightly decreased from 614 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2013 to
592 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014 due to a substitution of fossil fuels by higher generation of electricity from
renewable sources (incremental generation mainly from wind power and photovoltaics). The increase
in renewable PED is driven by the increase of electricity from renewable energy sources. Changes in
AP, EP and POCP are low and are linked to changes in of the energy carrier mix.
The increasing share of electricity from renewable resources increased considerably from 27.4 % to
29.4 % in the EU, resulting in a 6.5 % lower GWP for electricity (446 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2013 vs.
417 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014). Changes in AP and EP are low and mainly influenced by the changes
in the grid mix.
In the U.S., the GWP remains unchanged at 614 g CO2-eq./kWh (617 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2013). EP
has been decreased by 9 % due to reduced NOx emissions from fossil power plants (mainly coal
power plants). AP and POCP remained nearly unchanged.

The following figures present the percentile changes of the greenhouse gases for the upgraded elec-
tricity grid mixes in the GaBi Professional database and the Extension Module Energy compared to
the 2017 edition (reference year 2013) data, as well as the absolute greenhouse gas emissions per
kWh in the 2018 edition databases (reference year 2014).

Figure 6: Absolute GWP of electricity grid mix datasets in GaBi Professional 2017 & 2018 Edition
For most cases, the changes in the national electricity grid mix datasets are related to the upgraded
energy carrier mix or imports:
• Denmark (DK) � The carbon intensity of the electricity supply in Denmark has been decreased
from 435 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2013 to 352 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014. The 20 % decrease in green-
house gases per supplied kWh electricity is related to higher generation from renewable
sources (46 % in 2013 to 56 % in 2014) mainly realised by higher capacities and output from
wind power plants. Like the year before, relevant parts of the electricity supply have been

imported (30 %) and thereof a relevant part from Germany (32 %), with a distinct higher carbon
intensity then the domestic production.
• Estonia (EE) � In Estonia, the GWP has been decreased considerably from 1,324 g CO2-
eq./kWh in 2013 to 1,053 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014. Main reasons for the decrease is the higher
gross efficiency of shale oil power plants (increase from 30 % to 32.6 %) as well as substitution
of shale oil by renewable sources (increase from 9.1 % to 11.5 %).
• Finland (FI) � Compared to 2013, the GWP per supplied unit of electricity in Finland has
decreased by 20 % from 265 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2013 to 212 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014. The de-
crease is related to higher electricity output from hydro power plants, as well as higher produc-
tion from wind power plants and imports from Sweden.
• Great Britain (GB) � Due to an increase of electricity generation from renewable sources from
15.8 % in 2013 to 20.3 % in 2014, the GWP decreased from 528 g CO2-eq./kWh to 477 g CO2-
eq./kWh.
• Malta (MT) � GWP for the electricity supply in Malta has been decreased from 998 g CO2-
eq./kWh in 2013 to 887 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014. The reasons are mainly decreased net losses
and to a smaller extend the substitution of electricity from fuel oil by electricity from photovol-
taics.
• Norway (NO), Sweden (SE), France (FR) � The high relative GWP decrease for France, Nor-
way and Sweden is a result of the high sensitivity of changes in the energy carrier mix on
electricity grid mixes with low carbon intensities. In Sweden, a higher output of electricity from
hydro power stations resulted in a slight decreasing usage of combustible, fossil fuel for elec-
tricity generation. In France, higher output from nuclear power stations resulted in a decreased
production from hard coal and natural gas. In Norway, only little changes in the grid mix took
place. The decrease in GWP from 38 to 31°g CO2-eq./kWh is mostly related to reduced grid
losses and lower imports.
• Slovenia (SI) � The carbon intensity of the Slovenian grid mix has been decreased from
450 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2013 to 335 g CO2-eq./kWh in 2014. The reduction is due to a substitu-
tion of electricity from lignite due to higher output from hydropower and nuclear stations.
The following figure illustrates the GWP of the electricity supply in selected countries over the last six
years. Compared to 2008, the GWP in Germany has been reduced by 5 %, in the EU by 15 %. The
relative low decrease in GWP for the electricity generation in Germany between 2008 and 2014, de-
spite considerable increase of generation from renewable sources (15.1 % in 2008 and 27 % in 2014)
is related to the substitution of electricity from nuclear power. In the U.S., the substitution of electricity
from hard coal by electricity from natural as well as a higher share of electricity from renewables has
decreased the GWP per kWh of supplied electricity by 8 %. Nonetheless, the carbon intensity of elec-
tricity generation in the U.S. has not been further evolved since 2012. In some of the EU Member
States, relevant GWP reductions have been achieved over the last five years, mainly due to a substi-
tution of fossil fuels by renewable sources, e.g. Czech Republic -19 %, Denmark -32 %, Estonia -
22 %, Great Britain -18 %, Italy -24 %, Portugal -30 %, Romania -31 %, Spain -23 %.

Figure 9: Absolute GWP of electricity grid mix datasets in GaBi Extension module Energy 2017 & 2018
• Chile (CL) � The decreasing GWP (635 g/kWh in 2013, 529 g/kWh in 2014) is a consequence
of higher output from hydropower plants and a substitution of electricity generation from hard
coal.
• New Zealand (NZ) �The decreasing GWP in New Zealand from 193 g/kWh in 2013 to
166 g/kWh in 2014 is a result of a further substitution of fossil fuels by renewable sources
(mainly geothermal and higher output from hydropower stations).
• Turkey (TR) � Lower output from hydropower stations (around one third) had to be compen-
sated by electricity from coal and natural gas, resulting in a higher carbon intensity of 10 % for
electricity generation (630 g/kWh in 2013, 694 g/kWh in 2014).

Figure 11 and Figure 12 illustrate the absolute and relative changes in GWP of the eGRID sub regions,
as well as the five sub grids and the US average using data from eGRID2014 instead of IEA data to
calculate the energy grid mix. For the sub regions (see Figure 13 to get an overview) and sub grids in
GaBi, the reference year has been updated from 2013 in GaBi database 2017 to 2014 in GaBi data-
base 2018. The changes in GWP are mostly related to the updated energy grid mixes and partly to
updates in the supply of energy carriers and infrastructure.
Figure 11: Absolute GWP of electricity grid mix datasets in GaBi Extension module Full US 2017 & 2018
The increase in GWP for sub region NWPP is partly related to a methodological change, relocating
four large coal-fired power plants from other sub regions into the NWPP sub region. Neighbouring sub
regions from which the power plants have been excluded, like AZNM, are affected as well.

Other impact categories, such as acidification or eutrophication are in addition to the updated energy
carrier mixes also affected by updated emission factors for combustion power plants.

Further developments in electricity datasets
Changes in electricity data sets from specific fuels:
Power plant efficiencies, calculated based on energy statistics, can significantly vary between the
reference years. The following reasons are considerations for variations over time:
• final or periodic shutdown of specific power plants,
• different share between CHP and direct production over time (e.g. different heat demand over
time),
• technology measures to increase efficiency
• irregular usage over time (e.g. used as reserve capacity),
• rounding effects (if little fuel is used),
• correction of statistical errors
• a combination of several of the factors listed above
• For coal power plants and power plants using heavy fuel oil in countries which do not use dust
filters or only use them partly the share of PM2.5 and PM2.5-10 was corrected, resulting in lower
PM2.5 and PM2.5-10 emissions.
2.5 Inventories for primary energy carriers
The reference year of the GaBi databases 2018 Edition is 2014 for all energy carrier supply mixes
(e.g. hard coal, crude oil and natural gas). The changes of the energy carrier processes after the
upgrade are described in the following.
Primary energy carrier processes after the upgrade
Changes in the environmental impacts of the lignite and hard coal mixes are related to the update of
the country-specific consumption mixes (mix of domestic production and imports). All country-specific
lignite and hard coal mixes show GWP changes of less than or equal to 5 % except the following two:
• Hard coal mix of France (FR) � higher impacts (e.g. GWP: + 7 %) because of increasing hard
coal imports with higher environmental impacts (e.g. from Russia and South Africa) and de-
creasing coal imports from Poland and the United States.
• Lignite mix of Slovakia (SK) � GWP increases by 20 % due to the increase in domestic lignite
production with a higher environmental impact and decreasing number of imports from Czech
Republic and Germany.
31
The environmental impacts of the crude oil and natural gas mixes changed due to the update of the
country-specific consumption mixes and the update of the crude oil and natural gas production (e.g.
flaring and venting, gas and diesel combustion).
Crude oil mixes with more than 5 % changes in the GWP results are: crude oil mix of Australia (AU)
(GWP - 7 %); crude oil mix of Brazil (BR) (GWP - 11 %); crude oil mix of Finland (FI) (GWP - 26 %);
crude oil mix of Greece (GR) (GWP + 9 %); crude oil mix of Portugal (PT) (GWP - 13 %); crude oil mix
of Sweden (SE) (GWP - 14 %); crude oil mix of Thailand (TH) (GWP - 12 %); crude oil mix of Turkey
(TR) (GWP + 17 %); crude oil mix of Ukraine (UA) (GWP - 36 %); crude oil mix of Venezuela (VE)
(GWP + 17 %).
In addition to the updates of the natural gas consumption mixes and the natural gas production, the
country-specific shares of conventional and unconventional natural gas production of some countries
were updated as well as the gas transport, transmission and distribution via pipeline and the LNG
transport (including liquefaction, LNG transport via tanker and regasification). These changes lead to
significant changes in the environmental impacts of almost all natural gas mixes.
The environmental impacts of the fuel mixes (diesel and gasoline, at refinery and filling station) change
due to the update of the country-specific biofuel and fossil fuel consumption mixes (domestic produc-
tion and imports), the update of the country-specific blending quota of biofuels and changes in the
biofuel and crude oil supply chains. The following country-specific fuel mixes show GWP changes of
more than 5 %:
• Gasoline mix of Germany (DE) � The GWP reduction by 6-10 % is mainly caused by changes
in the fossil fuel consumption mix
• Gasoline mix of the Netherlands (NL) � the changes in the fossil fuel consumption mix. lead
to a GWP reduction by 8 %
• Gasoline mix of the United Kingdom (GB) � The GWP reduction by 6 % is caused by the
blending quota of the bioethanol and changes in the fossil fuel consumption mix.
• Gasoline mix of Russia (RU) � The GWP reduction by 11-12 % is caused by changes in the
fossil fuel consumption mix
• Gasoline mix of Brazil (BR) � the impact changes (e.g. GWP decreases by 22-36 %) are
mostly related to changes in the supply chain of bioethanol.
• Diesel mix of Australia (AU) � the GWP result is reduced by 43 % due to changes in blending
quota of the biodiesel, the fossil fuel consumption mix and the supply chain of the biodiesel
• Diesel mix of Brazil (BR) � the impact changes (e.g. GWP decreases by 20 %) are mostly
related to changes in the supply chain of biodiesel.
• Diesel mix of Germany (DE) � The GWP reduction by 8 % is mainly caused by changes in
the fossil fuel consumption mix
• Diesel mix of Malaysia (MY) � � The GWP reduction by 21 % is caused by the blending
quota of the biodiesel and changes in the fossil fuel consumption mix.
• Diesel mix of Russia (RU) � The GWP reduction by 15 % is caused by changes in the fossil
fuel consumption mix
32
Changes in the environmental impacts of the other refinery products, like aromatics or heavy fuel oil,
are related to changes in the crude oil supply.
The environmental impacts of the nuclear fuel supply chain changed significantly due to the update of
the country-specific uranium enrichment technologies. The nuclear power plant technologies are up-
dated, too.
The update of the photovoltaic models (e.g. photovoltaic module efficiencies, technology mix) and the
correction of solar irradiation for some countries leads to some major changes in the impacts.
The environmental impacts of the wind models changed due to the update of the country-specific full
load operating hours and country-specific shares of onshore and offshore wind parks.
2.6 Organic and inorganic intermediates
Possible updates and upgrades of technologies may happen on 3 different levels. In the upgraded
datasets most cases multiple effects can be observed.
Due to possible breakthrough technologies (improvements in the foreground system of the existing
technology), due to changed situations in a production or consumption mix of different technologies
providing the same product and last but not least due to changes and updates in the background
system of resources and energy supply.
The needed information to check and update the technologies and supply chains are based on the
knowhow of our engineers as well as on information shared by our customers that are active in the
chemical sector. The provided documentation of GaBi datasets serves as viable basis to discuss sup-
ply chain aspects and demands.
Our experts use scientific and engineering knowhow (e.g. thermodynamic laws, the mass- and energy
conservation, stoichiometric balances, combustion calculation and alike) as basis to maintain and up-
date chemical LCA data. All chemical technologies were checked in this sense. In relation to possible
breakthrough technologies no major new technologies or significant process improvements on exist-
ing technologies were identified by thinkstep experts in this year’s upgrade.
Changes in the background system mainly relate to:
• Upgraded distribution on primary, secondary and tertiary fossil resource extraction like oil and
gas
• Upgraded market share of imported fossil resources
• Upgraded distribution of the type of resources used (oil, gas and coal, etc.)
• Increased amount of renewable feedstock and energy supply
Changes in the energy sector and supply chain are in most cases the drivers for overall improvement
throughout several impact categories. The intermediates are directly influenced by the upgraded per-
formance of the energy supply and the important resource, crude oil and natural gas.

2.7 Inventories for metal processes
All data and models have been checked by thinkstep metals experts regarding technological upgrades
and were identified as representative for their technology descriptions.
Main changes this year concern the PGM (Platinum Group Metals) metals. Using consistent price
information from USGS, the 10 year annual mean price used for economic allocations has been up-
dated. Additionally, the allocation method used in the PGM refinery has been changed to a mass
allocation from the previously used economic allocation.
The refining step in the silver production was updated to the current technology, which uses sulphuric
acid.

2.11 Inventories for renewable processes
The datasets including renewable materials (e.g. crops cultivation) are modelled with a comprehen-
sive agricultural model. The model considers local and regional aspects of climate, soil and farming
practices on the technical side. Further it takes into account international guidelines, current scientific
literature and available databases on the methodological side. The thinkstep agriculture and farming
experts maintain and enlarge the model frequently, becoming one of the most advanced LCA models
related to this topic.

As part of the 2018 annual upgrade the agrarian and renewable processing datasets have been re-
viewed and updated based on the most recent information identified by the thinkstep experts consid-
ering the aspects previously mentioned. In addition the documentation of certain datasets has been
improved.
The biogenic carbon balance was harmonized in all the foreground and background systems when
renewable materials are involved, especially in case the economic allocation approach has been used.
The primary energy data has been harmonized and corrected in all the datasets used as fuel where
an allocation based on a different reference than mass has been applied.

wastewater treat-

treatment plant emissions to
water of two processes have
been updated.
US: Municipal Waste water
treatment (US average,
avoided burden)
US: Municipal Waste water
treatment (US average, cut off
approach)
For both waste water
treatment datasets the
main results change as
following: (GWP
changes below 1%):
- increase of EP by 40%
due to increase of P
emissions to water
- reduction of ODP of
around 100% due to an
update of electricity pre-
cursor and therefore of
the electricity consumed
- increase of Primary en-
ergy from renewables
demand by 17% due to
an update of US electric-

3 Industry data in GaBi
Despite the fact, that several associations have updated their data, some associations did not update
this year. Since they have an own cycle for upgrading their data, these processes cannot be up-
dated by thinkstep in the yearly upgrade without permission. thinkstep must keep these pro-
cesses identical to those in the GaBi Databases 2017 Edition until the associations decide to update
and make them available in our system. However, several new association datasets use the GaBi
database to reach global customers.

GC-5896 LCIA Water flow in
Ecoinvent miss-

tion' the value is
reduced with 90-
100%.
This only applies
when using ecoin-
vent processes on

Annex I: “Version 2017” discontinued datasets – Explanations and Recommenda-
tions
For various reasons, there are a few processes in the Databases 2018 Edition which are no longer appropriate. These have been moved into
a folder called “Version 2017”. They are still available for clients who need to work with them but will not be upgraded anymore, and
are not part of the delivery scope for new GaBi clients. There are two reasons behind this approach:
i) thinkstep is committed not to provide information which is not up-to-date and
ii) thinkstep wants to enable users who have used the dataset to decide if it is still appropriate in their specific goal and scope.
The tables in Annex I and Annex II list all those processes along with the explanations and recommended alternatives where applicable.
