Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
The Life-Cycle Assessment Topical Group (LCA TG) updates technical documents on life-cycle-based assessments of railway systems considering all kinds of environmental impacts (CO2, Photochemical Smog, Ozone depletion, etc.), Ecodesign, Product Category Rules (PCR) for Environmental Product Declarations (EPD), Ecolabel & Eco-procurement, standardisation and legislative requirements for specific eco-related topics.
UNIFE Recyclability and Recoverability Calculation Methodology
Based on the ISO 21106:2019 “Railway applications — Recyclability and recoverability calculation method for rolling stock,” the UNIFE LCA TG prepared guidelines and a template on recyclability and recoverability calculation methodology.
To support an uniform LCA methodology for communication of environmental performance UNIFE LCA TG has supported the development of PCR 2009 :05 Rolling Stock and the c-PCR-023 Railway Infrastructure
