Query: Consequential LCA for territorial and multimodal transportation
  policies: method and application to the free-floating e-scooter disruption in
  Paris   The indirect environmental impacts of transport disruptions in urban mobility
are frequently overlooked due to a lack of appropriate assessment methods.
Consequential Life Cycle Assessment (CLCA) is a method to capture the
environmental consequences of the entire cause and effect chain of these
disruptions but has never been adapted to transportat disruption at the city
scale. This paper proposes a mathematical formalization of CLCA applied to a
territorial mobility change. The method is applied to quantify the impact on
climate change of the breakthrough of free-floating e-scooters (FFES) in Paris.
A FFES user survey is conducted to estimate the modal shifts due to FFES. Trip
substitutions from all the Parisian modes concerned are considered - personal
or shared bicycles and motor scooters, private car, taxi and ride-hailing, bus,
streetcar, metro and RER (the Paris metropolitan area mass rapid transit
system). All these Parisian modes are assessed for the first time using LCA.
Final results estimate that over one year, the FFES generated an extra thirteen
thousand tons of CO2eq under an assumption of one million users, mainly due to
major shifts coming from lower-emitting modes (60% from the metro and the RER,
22% from active modes). Recommendations are given to enhance their carbon
footprint. A scenario analysis shows that increasing the lifetime mileage is
insufficient to get a positive balance: reducing drastically servicing
emissions is also required. A sensitivity analysis switching the French
electricity mix for eleven other country mixes suggests a better climate change
effect of the FFES in similar metropolitan areas with higher electricity carbon
intensity, such as in Germany and China. Finally, the novelty and the limits of
the method are discussed, as well as the results and the role of e-scooters,
micromobility, and shared vehicles towards a sustainable mobility.
