Error using impact methods with Ecoinvent 3.1
Posted: 05 Aug 2014 12:51
Hello,
I'm using OpenLCA 1.4 and Ecoinvent 3.1 on a Mac. I would like to use the "process based" database using the cut-off system model, but in this database trying to use any kind of impact method seems to result in an error during calculation. I imported the openLCA method pack for 1.4 and tried using those impact methods, as well as trying to create a new impact method. For both cases an error pops up saying that an unexpected error occured and that calculation failed.
Using impact methods seems to work for the lci version of this database though.
So my question is, is it possible to calculate an impact in the "process based" Ecoinvent 3.1 database using OpenLCA 1.4? What might I be doing wrong that it doesn't work there but only in the lci version of the database?
