LIFE CYCLE COSTING

[patricia]

Hello,

Is it possible to do a life cycle costing in openlca1.4? I am a new user.
I am using ELCD database and I haven't seen cost data, so I don't know if I have to introduce it for myself. If it is yes, How I have to indroduce it in openlca1.4?

Thanks in advance

Hello Patricia,
yes it is possible to perform Life Cycle Costing in openLCA, please see the manual that we created which describes it more in detail.
http://www.openlca.org/manuals, and then http://www.openlca.org/c/document_libra ... upId=22314.

We are working on an improved version soon it seems, in an upcoming project, but the present approach works.
Best wishes,
Andreas
