A life cycle assessment (LCA) is required for the transparent presentation of a building's environmental impact and for the development of optimisation potential. It enables a holistic assessment of the entire life cycle of the building, taking into account the various phases from production through utilisation to the end of life. While life cycle assessment has always been used as a method in the context of DGNB Certification, it has now also been made mandatory in the funding programme "Klimafreundlicher Neubau" of the German federal funding for sustainable building (BEG). Conducting a life cycle assessment is a prerequisite for building owners to be eligible for funding. The experts listed on this page can provide support in this regard.
DGNB-Examined Experts in Life Cycle Assessment...
- are familiar with the various ways in which life cycle assessments can be used both for new buildings and for existing buildings in the course of renovation and to achieve climate-neutral operation.
- are able to correctly interpret life cycle assessments and thus optimally advise building owners when making decisions.
- can critically reflect on and compare different scopes and results in relation to environmental impacts.
- can apply the DGNB Criterion ENV1.1 "Climate action and energy" as part of DGNB Certification and provide evidence of the additional requirements of the quality label "Qualitätssiegel Nachhaltiges Gebäude" (QNG) in order to obtain BEG funding.
