Simplified LCA – a method to save time and resources

Performing a life cycle assessment (LCA) is a resource and time-consuming activity, especially for complex equipment like telecommunications equipment. As LCA is an important tool in the strive to minimize the environmental impact, there is a need for simplified LCA approaches. In the presented simplified LCA methodology, product parameters covering materials and processes are identified and grouped before multiplied by emission factors to estimate the total impact.
