Soca - Sustainability assessment

Question

Hi :)

I have bought soca v.2 Single user and ecoinvent v2.2 & v.3.8 Commercial Single-User Licence. As said in Soca description, it is the first database including E-LCA, S-LCA, LCC making able to conduct a full sustainability assessment with one database. However using Social Impact Assessment Method calculates only social impacts and some cost data (added value). I am not able to find the environmental impact (such as global warming potential) in the results and I cannot either select another assessment method. How can I make an Environmental Assessment using Soca v2? Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

I think you need to import an environmental impact assessment method in the database, use the LCIA method pack that you can find on Nexus, import as file, do not unzip.

All the best,

Andreas
