dc.description.abstractSegún el séptimo objetivo de desarrollo sostenible (ODS) concluido por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU), la energía deberá ser limpia y accesible para todos en las próximas décadas. La energía limpia se utiliza a menudo como sinónimo de energía renovable (ER), sostenible o verde, palabras que se asocian con un concepto de tecnologías de bajo impacto ambiental (IA). Sin embargo, las ERs también tienen asociados IAs negativos, que pueden identificarse y evaluarse mediante instrumentos como la Evaluación de Impactos Ambientales (EIA) o el Análisis de ciclo de vida (ACV). Este artículo se centra en la revisión de los IAs documentados en diferentes ACV para sistemas de energía solar fotovoltaica (SEPV), el tipo más común de ERs modernas para satisfacer la demanda energética a nivel mundial. Aunque diferentes estudios de ACV incluyen varias categorías ambientales de evaluación, para el análisis se seleccionaron 5 categorías, potencial de calentamiento global (GWP, por sus siglas en inglés), uso del suelo, pérdida de biodiversidad, salud humana y generación de residuos. Los resultados muestran que los IAs de los SEPV documentados en ACVs dependen no solo de la tecnología, el contexto y la escala del proyecto, sino también del objetivo y alcance de cada estudio. Aun así, este artículo recoge valores orientativos para el GWP, el uso de suelo y los accidentes mortales de aves relacionados con SEPV. Además, la investigación revela la necesidad de enfoques complementarios como EIA o estudios de toxicidad para poder dimensionar impactos acerca de pérdida de biodiversidad y daños a la salud humana, así mismo concluye la falta de un sistema de gestión de residuos adecuado para las miles de toneladas que generarán estos sistemas a futuro.
dc.description.abstractAccording to the 7th goal of sustainable development concluded by the United Nations (UN), energy should become clean and accessible for every human being on the planet in the upcoming decades. Clean energy is often used as a synonym for renewable, sustainable or green energy, words which are associated with a concept of low-impact technologies. However, renewable energies (REs) also have a set of negative environmental impacts (EIs), which can be identified and assessed through an EI Assessment (EIA) and/or a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). This article focuses on the revision of EIs documented in LCA studies for solar photovoltaic (PV) systems (SPVSs), the most common type of modern REs to satisfy energy demand globally. Although different LCA studies include various environmental assessment categories, five categories were selected for analysis, namely global warming potential (GWP), land use, biodiversity loss, human health (HH) and waste generation. The results show that documented EIs of SPVSs from LCAs depend not only on the technology, context and scale of the project, but also on the objective and scope of each study. Still, this article summarizes orientational values for the GWP, land use and fatal bird accidents related to SPVSs. Further, the research reveals the need for complementary approaches such as EIAs or toxicity studies for the assessment of biodiversity loss as well as the impacts on HH, and the lack of an existing waste management system for the million tons of waste soon to be disposed.
