Life Cycle Assessment Report

Life Cycle Assessment

West Forest LLC, has undertaken the development of a composite wood panel production facility in northern California. As part of this initiative, and in collaboration with TSS Consultants, SIG joined the project to conduct a comprehensive greenhouse gas (GHG) life cycle assessment (LCA) analysis for specific wood products

With Biomass Energy, The Carbon Savings Are In the Details

Machine Learning in CoMiMo

SIG co-developed software to remotely monitor gold mining activity in Colombia. Illegal mining is a driver of deforestation and this project aims to empower authorities to respond quickly and appropriately. CoMiMo, which is available for desktop in both English and Spanish, uses satellite imagery and artificial intelligence to identify threatened areas.

Life Cycle Carbon Assessment of Biomass Power Generation

Life Cycle Carbon Assessment

Wood pellets have been hailed as a carbon neutral form of energy, especially in Europe, where pellets are being used to satisfy Paris Agreement requirements to reduce carbon emissions. However, pellet production can result in additional biomass harvests that reduce the amount of carbon stored in forests.

Marin Jurisdictional Carbon Accounting

Marin Jurisdictional Carbon Accounting

Jurisdictional Carbon Accounting and Management is the process of measuring, reporting, and managing greenhouse gas emissions and removals within a region. The Forest and Agriculture team has worked across the United States and in numerous other countries to measure greenhouse gas emissions and support decision making in order to limit carbon emissions.
