Technical Committee

Co-Chairs: Anju Baroth, Eaton & Christoph Koffler, Sphera

The mission of the ACLCA Technical Committee (TC) is to advance the technical and methodological aspects of Life Cycle Assessment to accurately capture and help reduce the resource consumption and environmental burdens associated with products, processes, services, or other activities.

The Technical Committee covers topics that evolve around technical or methodological aspects related to LCA, including scoping, inventory modeling, data quality, uncertainty, life cycle impact assessment, and decision support by addressing methodological aspects as well as practical challenges that reduce the quality and decision relevance of the outcomes and hamper the further dissemination of LCA in industry, research, and policy applications. The committee also embraces topics related to regional, technological and regulatory advances in the field of LCA.
