The purpose of this paper is to present the
sustainability assessment of the electricity sector by using economic
input-output life cycle (EIO-LCA) in Turkey, taking into account the
environmental, economic and social aspects for the period between 1995 and
2009. In order to evaluate the sustainability of electricity sector, we use
some major economic, environmental, and social indicators as sustainability
life cycle indicators. The policy scenario is a $1 million increase in output
of electricity sector. Results indicates that decrease in emissions of carbon
dioxide and air pollutants by almost half according to policy scenario. The
main reason for this decline is the use of imported natural gas in the
production of electric energy instead of lignite produced by Turkey in this
period.
