Life Cycle Assessment

Catalyst provides Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) services to support compliance with the EU Taxonomy for sustainable finance and with BREEAM, LEED and HPI. These services help financial institutions, asset managers, and other stakeholders evaluate their investments’ environmental impacts and make informed decisions based on sustainability criteria.

The LCA service provided by Catalyst involves several stages. The first stage is a comprehensive assessment of the environmental impacts associated with the entire life cycle of a product, service or process, including the extraction of raw materials, production, use, and end-of-life disposal. During the assessment stage, Catalyst also examines the potential for reducing the environmental impact of the product, service or process through alternative materials, production processes, and design changes.

After the assessment, Catalyst provides a detailed report with recommendations for sustainable design and development and compliance with the EU Taxonomy and Green Building Certifications. In addition, this report outlines the potential environmental impacts associated with different investment strategies, including the alignment with the EU Taxonomy criteria.

Overall, Catalyst’s LCA services are designed to help financial institutions, asset managers, and other stakeholders evaluate the environmental impacts of their investments and make informed decisions based on sustainability criteria. With the support of Catalyst’s LCA services, stakeholders can assess the potential environmental impact of their assets and identify opportunities for sustainable and resilient growth that align with the EU Taxonomy for sustainable finance.
