I am completing a desk study of carbon factor databases, to share with people who are not in this field, but who will be part of making digital development decisions.
OneClick LCA is currently the top of this list, as its carbon factor database is (I believe) the largest and most comprehensive, by some margin. It also sets out data quality standards / minimum requirements for carbon factor data to be included in its database.
2050 Materials is an interesting / emerging carbon factor dataset.
EC3 is an open carbon factor dataset, with a unique and (apparently) robust “uncertainty” feature. However, it is still a much smaller dataset than OneClick or 2050 Materials, and still heavily US-biased.
eTool is not very transparent, so I don’t know FACTS. I just think it’s Australia-centred…
Can I get any further comparison advice, or pointers to any additional COMPARABLE datasets I may have missed?
Thanks
