- •
We include O&M and decommissioning stages into the EIO-LCA of wind turbine.
- •
Both the stages can add up to 200 metric tons of GHG CO2e per turbine life cycle.
- •
Mean GHG emission rate per turbine is 19 and range is 15–29 g CO2e per KWh.
- •
Emission intensities can have uncertainties dependent on region-specific traits.
- •
Regional EIO-LCA can be useful for state compliance to the Clean Power Plan.
