Future European shale gas life-cycle GHG emissions for electric power generation in comparison to other fossil fuels

The carbon footprint of shale gas combusted in Europe was estimated from nine European shale gas plays as potential production regions. Greenhouse gas emission sources during shale gas production, such as fugitives from hydraulic fracturing or combustion emissions from horizontal drilling, were adde...
