Methods & Tools for LCA & LCC
Total results returned: 2
Welcome to the Methods and Tools for Lifecycle Assessments and Lifecycle Costing page, a vital resource dedicated to enhancing sustainability and economic viability in electric vehicle (EV) development.
This page features a comprehensive collection of reports, scientific papers, and analytical tools that focus on the methodologies used for conducting lifecycle assessments (LCA) and accurate costing of EVs. By exploring these resources, you will gain insights into how LCA can evaluate the environmental impacts associated with the entire lifecycle of electric vehicles, from material extraction to production, use, and end-of-life management. This knowledge is essential for researchers, engineers, and decision-makers striving to promote sustainable practices and optimise costs within the evolving EV landscape.
Electric Vehicles from Life Cycle and Circular Economy Perspectives
This document, by the European Environment Agency (EEA), is a comprehensive report that examines the environmental impacts of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) throughout their entire life cycle, from raw material extraction to end-of-life processing.

Environmental Challenges Through the Life Cycle of Battery Electric Vehicles
This study provides an up-to-date expert assessment and comparison between the life cycle’s carbon footprint of battery electric and internal combustion engine passenger cars. It presents evidence from the literature and from life cycle assessment modelling and concludes with policy recommendations. The analysis includes sensitivities, regional variations for six Member States, and also the effects of technical and legislative development on the potential outlook up to 2050.
