European life cycle assessment guide under consultation

The European Commission’s next-generation online life cycle assessment (LCA) online guide for buildings and building materials – Operational Guidance for Life Cycle Assessment Studies of the Energy Efficient Buildings Initiative – is now under consultation and open for comment until 31 July.

The Commission writes:
The European research project ‘EeBGuide’ aims to develop metrics for the preparation of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies for energy-efficient buildings and building products.

LCA is used to assess the environmental benefits of new technologies. The EeBGuide manuals and guidance will support LCA practitioners to obtain comparative results in their work.
