Is it possible to transfer ecoinvent database ?

Question

I am facing RAM problems with my current and old computer (openLCA is lagging a lot and takes hours to compute really simple inputs) and I am planning to buy a new computer.

I wanted to know if it's possible/doable to transfer the ecoinvent database 3.8 from one computer to another ?

(Knowing that I and only I will be the only user)

Thanks !

Answer 1

Hi, sure you can transfer your entire openLCA database (with possibly ecoinvent and also your own models etc.), simply backup the database in openLCA, and then move the zolca file to another computer, and in this other computer, restore this database from within openLCA.
