Purchase EN 15804 add-on for ecoinvent license owner

Question

I own an ecoinvent perpetual licence via SimaPro. I want to buy openLCA thus I should selected "Register non-nexus licence". But I also want the "EN 15804 add-on" proposed by openLCA. If I well understood, this add-on is not the system model "Allocation, Cut Off, EN 15804" proposed by ecoinvent. Could you confirm this point ?

When I select "EN 15804 add-on" on Nexus, an ecoinvent licence is automaticaly added to my cart. Why is it not possible to buy "ecoinvent in openLCA" with "openLCA EN 15804 add-on", without purchasing again the ecoinvent database ?

Answer 1

Hi Marion,

my nexus colleagues can follow up tomorrow but it is not necessary to buy a new ecoinvent license for the add-on, a registered license is fully sufficient. It should work when you first add the non-Nexus license to your cart and then the add-on. But we'll check tomorrow.

Cheers

Andreas

- and you are right, the Nexus EN15804 is not the ecoivent system model

Have you got the opportunity to check with your colleagues  if it works when we first add the non-Nexus licence to the cart and then the add-on ?
