Fiona Lowrie and Peter Tse, published by BSRIA in 2011, states embodied carbon (EC) is: ‘…the sum of fuel related carbon emissions (i.e. embodied energy which is combusted – but not the feedstock energy which is retained within the material) and process related carbon emissions (i.e. non-fuel related emissions which may arise, for example, from chemical reactions). This can be measured from cradle-to-gate, cradle-to-grave, or from cradle-to grave.’
