Use advice for data set The analysis is a cradle-to-grave study of one luminaire manufactured and installed, used according
to a specific lighting regime over a specific lifetime, including waste treatment at end-of-life.
A1-A5 includes the extraction and production of raw materials, transportation to the production site,
the production process itself, transport to the market and assembly.
B6 is the operational energy use stage of the luminaire based on the technical lifetime hours for the
product family and the power consumption of the declared luminaire.
C1-C4 includes de-installation of the luminaire, average transport between
location/application/installation site and waste treatment facility, waste processing and disposal in
Europe. Waste treatment of the product follows the default values provided in EN 50693.
D shows the recyclability of metals and plastics and allows the producers a credit for the net scrap
that is produced at the end of a product’s life. The benefits from recycling of net scrap are described
in formula from EN 15804:2012+A2:2019. Substitution of heat and electricity generated by the
incineration with energy recovery of plastic insulation and other parts is also calculated in module D.
