Abstract

Die Biogasproduktion in Deutschland wird nach einer zunächst positiven öffentlichen Bewertung mittlerweile zunehmend kritisch diskutiert. Insbesondere sozioökonomische Problemfelder wie die Auswirkungen der verursachten Strompreiserhöhung auf Konsumenten oder die Veränderung des Landschaftsbildes werden in der öffentlichen Diskussion als Kritikpunkte angeführt. In Ermangelung geeigneter Methoden steht eine ganzheitliche sozioökonomische Bewertung der Biogasproduktion bisher noch aus. Zur Durchführung einer entsprechenden Bewertung wird in diesem Beitrag das in der Entwicklung befindliche Social Life Cycle Assessment vorgeschlagen. Ziel dieses Beitrages ist die Darstellung einer erstmalig durchgeführten ganzheitlichen sozioökonomischen Bewertung der Biogasproduktion mittels eines weiterentwickelten Social Life Cycle Assessments und eines Vergleichs mit anderen erneuerbaren Energien. In der vergleichenden Betrachtung der sozioökonomischen Auswirkungen der Wertschöpfungsketten Biogas, Wind-, Solar-und Wasserenergie zeigt sich eine deutliche Schlechterbewertung der Biogasproduktion.
