ifeu-Institute for Energy and Environmental Research, Heidelberg

Life Cycle Assessment for the public sector and the industry

The ifeu-Institute primarily carries out life cycle assessment for public organizations. Further inquiries come from industrial associations, e. g. Plastic Europe in order to update life cycle assessment databases, or from companies like Tetrapak to compare different packaging alternatives.

The work with Umberto mainly focusses on three areas: packaging, Bioenergy sources and the waste management. As an well-established institute ifeu offers the deployment of critical reviews of life cycle assessments created by a third party.

Furthermore ifeu prepared a publication of the Federal Ministry for Environment and Reactor Safety concerning the contribution of domestic waste to sustainable development of Germany. On page 22 of this report Umberto is described as modeling tool for waste balances. Download the report in German language.
