How does regional reference buildings generated by One Click LCA for Carbon Designer 3D and the background data used account for regions in Africa. I am interested in calculating the carbon footprint of a project in Nigeria and would like to understand extent of the accuracy and precision of the results.
Hi Sunday,
For the African continent, the most suitable available region is ‘Middle East and North Africa’. We acknowledge that this may not be fully representative of the diverse construction practices across the entire continent.
This support article provides more detail on how our regional data is sourced: Carbon Designer: Regional Reference Buildings and Background Data | One Click LCA
Hope this helps!
