SLiCE: An open model for scalable high‑definition life cycle assessment of buildings
Channel: openmod-initiative
Date: 2023-05-05

A short introduction to the high‑resolution SLiCE model for evaluating buildings across scales. SLiCE can provide high-resolution data on material and energy-related greenhouse environmental impacts, such as greenhouse gas emissions, under selected future scenarios. SLiCE stands for "scalable life cycle engineering and building analysis".

Martin Röck (KU Leuven) presented this lightning talk to the in-person Open Energy Modelling initiative (openmod) workshop held IIASA, Vienna, Austria on 22–24 March 2023.  See also: https://forum.openmod.org/tag/vienna-2023
