Re: provider

Hi Marah, Following Andreas comment, you should notice that there are five product flows in BioEnergieDat which do not have a provider even if the ecoinvent v.2.2 database is combined with it. These are: - Strom, Heizkraftwerk (Dampfturbine), für Gutschrift/Substitution - Industrierestholz, Sägemehl...

Re: Regionalized LCIA in 1.5.0 beta

Hello Matthias, Regarding your first question, the function "Evaluate per existing locations" calculates the intersections of the locations in the database with the shapes in the shapefile, not the final characterisation factor for each elementary flow and impact category in the LCIA method.

Re: Beer bottle database for 1.4.1 not working

Hello Abir, That step refers to the creation of a new flow within the already existing category [folder] “Case study – beer bottle”.

Re: Impact assessment GaBi

Hi Elorri, The ecoinvent LCIA methods package contains mainly ecoinvent elementary flows, so GaBi specific flows are not included. openLCA LCIA methods package intends to keep, as accurately as possible, the original data from the methodologies considered.
