Change of Transport mode (sea or land) as input parameter.

Question

Is it possible to use different mode of transport (land or sea) as an input parameter for comparison in my model in openLCA?

Thanks for your response.

Answer 1

Yes, add different transport modes, with correct amounts, and add a switch parameter to each of the amounts. Set the switch parameter to 1 or 0 if you want to activate or deactivate a transport mode.

Thank you. Another thing is that I am modeling energy consumption in kWh but the results are coming in MJ and the required amount in the results do not correspond with the input.

well the software can convert from MJ to kWh if this is entered in the energy unit group? I do not understand the "required amount in the results" part. The result should be calculated and not require an amount?
