EPD Start

– for those who want to get started quickly

EPD Generator START is a fast and cost-effective way to develop manual EPDs for mature products and services in established industries. Regulations and legal requirements for environmental documentation are becoming increasingly clear. Now that public procurement requires climate and environmental impact to be weighted at least 30%, many companies want to have EPDs developed at record speed.

EPD Generator START is the ideal solution if you want to get started with environmental documentation but are unsure about the number of EPDs you need or lack the resources to develop or verify them yourself. We use the same technology as in our EPD Generator Enterprise, but here, our LCA consultants develop the EPDs and submit them for verification on your behalf.

With EPD Generator START, you can have up to 5 EPDs developed, at a starting price of NOK 50,000 per EPD. This includes analysis and sharing features, and a three-year license agreement at NOK 500 per month. Checklist verification by Energiråd AS in Ålesund is billed separately.

Thanks to the low complexity of the product, we can develop your EPD quickly, with a delivery time of just 4–6 weeks from order. All you need to do is provide basic product information—we’ll take care of the rest.

You can start with EPD Generator START and later choose to upgrade to EPD Generator ENTERPRISE, where you’ll be able to develop your own EPDs.

About the EPD Generator

Developing an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is often time- and resource-intensive. LCA.no has developed a tool—the EPD Generator—to simplify this process.

The EPD Generator enables companies to develop their own EPDs. At the start, a company- or industry-specific database is created, containing environmental data for relevant raw materials, energy use, transport, and waste.

The company inputs product composition, transport details, energy consumption, and production waste. The system then automatically calculates the environmental impact in accordance with the EPD format.

All calculations and background data in the tool are verified by an independent third party. Users cannot alter the baseline data or the calculations. This ensures that all EPDs developed in the generator are recognized as third-party verified.
