Environmental life cycle assessments

Measuring the environmental impacts of a luminaire

The following environmental impacts were considered in the life cycle assessments of the SUMATRA project.

GWP (global warming potential): Greenhouse gas emissions, measured in kg CO2 equivalent.

ADPe (Abiotic depletion potential, elements): Extraction of resources (minerals, metal ores) that are limited on earth. Measured in kg antimony (Sb) equivalent.
