Abstract

To improve the low-carbon development level of highway engineering,this study relied on a typical green highway in Anhui Province and established a calculation model for energy-conservation and carbon-reduction in highway engineering based on the emission factor method.A combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches was adopted to evaluate the benefits of 33 energy-conservation and carbon-reduction technologies in reducing life cycle energy consumption and carbon emissions,based on life cycle assessment (LCA ) theory.The results show that during the material production stage,through channel resource coordination and the application of low-carbon,energy-saving materials,comprehensive reductions in the embodied carbon can be achieved.During the construction stage,energy consumption is reduced by optimizing construction organization and the energy consumption structure of temporary facilities and on-site operations.In the operation and maintenance stage,the construction of near-zero-carbon service areas helps reduce operational carbon emissions,improve project durability,and lower maintenance energy consumption.Based on the evaluation of energy conservation and carbon reduction benefits,an inventory of life cycle energy-conservation and carbon-reduction technologies for green highways is established,providing practical experience for the implementation of green and low-carbon development requirements in highway construction.
