  • B- 19. “Operational Energy exported and on-site produced and allocation of environmental impacts”

    Aspect B- 19. “Operational Energy exported and on-site produced and allocation of environmental impacts”In future, buildings will not only be energy- efficient, but also will produce energy on site in multiple ways. Description The energy produced at the building site may not only be consumed in the building, but also exported to the grid. For…

  • Executive Summary

    Operational guidance for Life Cycle Assessment studies of the Energy Efficient Buildings Initiative (EeBGuide) is a European Commission funded project aiming to produce expert guidance for conducting Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies for energy-efficient buildings and building products under the framework of Energy Efficient Building (EeB) Initiative. The EeBGuide guidance document will provide a common…

  • What is EeBGuide?

    The European research project “EeBGuide” develops methods, rules and operational guidance for the preparation of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies for energy-efficient buildings and building products. Ongoing research under the framework of the Energy Efficient Building European Initiative creates technologies for an energy-efficient Europe. LCA is used to assess the environmental benefits of new technologies.…
