WELCOME TO THE EUROPEAN PLATFORM ON LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT

The EPLCA is the EU’s knowledge base that responds to business and policy needs towards sustainable production and consumption.

The EPLCA supports the methodological development of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for the analysis of supply chains and end-of-life waste management.

The EPLCA fosters LCA as an essential integrated environmental assessment in support to the EU policy making process and the ambition of Green Deal, and many other policy initiatives, with specific reference to the Circular Economy Action Plan, the Farm2Fork, the Biodiversity Strategy, the Chemical strategy, and many more.
