More broadly, causal inference methodologies can improve precision of estimates of "Scope 2" (second-order) greenhouse gas emissions and life cycle assessments.

Gazar et al. find little support for the stimulating effect of new infrastructure per se but highlight the importance of open-source tools to model the effects of novel long-term power purchase agreements.

Gazar et al. demonstrate the power of formal causal inference methodologies to scope and build consensus for the range of impacts mediated by social/economic processes which are not easily modeled mechanistically (e.g., by currently available capacity expansion models).
