Abstract

This file contains the code used to compile the results for the article 'Eco-efficiency as a decision support tool to compare renewable energy systems'. Python version 3.9.16 and the python package brightway2 version 2.4.3 is used. Additionally, a VUB internally developed design and optimization framework is used for simulating the various energy sysems and their production. Further explanation about the methodology are provided in the article published an Energies special issue on 'Life Cycle Assessment in Renewable and Sustainable Energies' (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies/special_issues/ZN7187TO06). This research was funded by Vlaams Agentschap Innoveren & Ondernemen (VLAIO) in the framework of the MAMuET and OPTIMESH project.\
