National building LCA data accelerator EU LIFE

Monica LAVAGNA (docente coordinatore)

INDICATE LIFE generates the methodological and data foundations essential for developing national whole-life-carbon (WLC) across Europe. The project prepares the ground for the effective implementation of the EPBD recast provisions on WLC (Art. 7 and Annex 3). Building on the success of the “INDICATE – National Building LCA Data Accelerator” project in IE, SE and CZ, INDICATE LIFE aims to fill the gap in building Life Cycle Assessment data needed for the design and rollout of WLC regulations in other promising EU Member States.
The objective is to develop WLC benchmarks on national level that support the development of science-based decarbonisation pathways for new construction and renovations. Guidance and technical support are provided throughout the project by experts in the field of policymaking and implementation, building-LCA and WLC benchmark development, industry engagement and strategic dissemination, and coordination, community building and project exploitation.
INDICATE LIFE provides a peer-to-peer exchange platform for WLC experts in implementing countries and leading experts in the EU.
