Hey, Milena! Thanks for sharing. The data product your company offers (CEDA) is described as being built from MRIO economic data and as being “compatible with Ecoinvent.” I (and perhaps others on this forum) would be interested to hear more about how you hybridize input-output and LCI data. Are your methods published anywhere?
As people on this forum, more typically LCA practitioners in AEC (the world of Ecoinvent), are working to meet climate targets determined by spend-based methodologies (the world of MRIO), it feels worthwhile to open a discussion about 1) how we can crosswalk between IO and LCA and 2) how hybrid IO-LCA methods might be most applicable to AEC.
This issue comes up often in our work and it’s a bit of a bear. For instance, Scope 3 “capital assets” (where embodied carbon goes in scope 3) is most often counted as just A1-A3 emissions–excluding big chunks of the wbLCA. Curious to hear your (and anyone else’s) thoughts on how we can better move between LCA and IO!
