ecoinvent data is now just an API call away.
The new ecoinvent API lets users integrate the world’s leading life cycle inventory data seamlessly into applications—without manually downloading files, managing files locally, or switching between tools.
Our database now contains more than 26,000 peer-reviewed datasets for comprehensive environmental reporting and sustainable decision-making.
Version 3.12 of the ecoinvent database continues to expand the content and the geographical coverage of the data across various sectors. This update reflects our continued dedication to delivering transparent and comprehensive environmental data.
Sectors updated include fuels, electricity, chemicals and plastics, waste, metals, textiles, forestry and wood, agriculture, transport, pulp and paper, and batteries.
Our mission is to enable people and organizations to make science-based, data-driven sustainability decisions.
ecoinvent data spans every major sector and geography, with new content added regularly.
The database coverage goes well beyond carbon, supporting impact assessment across a wide range of environmental indicators, including all sixteen categories recognized by the EU Product Environmental Footprint method, from water scarcity and land use to human toxicity and resource depletion.
