Are purchased/downloaded LCA of products editable

Question

Hi all,

I've found an LCA for a product which comes very close to the LCA I want to calculate myself, and I would like to use it as a template and edit some parameters.

Before purchasing the product LCA from ecoinvent I would like to make sure that I will be able to tweak the parameters to tailor them to my specific case.

Thanks for your help.

Best,
Philipp

Hi Philipp, and welcome,

if you intend to use ecoivent with openLCA you should buy from Nexus not from ecoinvent, you can of course edit the processes and adjust where needed, and also enter your own ones.

Best wishes,

Andreas
