Calculate Embodied Carbon with Cubit Estimating and One Click LCA

With the growing emphasis on environmental impact in the global construction industry, understanding embodied carbon in construction projects has become increasingly important. Calculating and reducing embodied carbon is crucial for achieving project goals and adhering to regulatory standards. Embodied carbon encompasses the CO₂ emissions generated throughout the lifecycle of building materials, including extraction, processing, transportation, installation, waste, and renovation.

We’re thrilled to introduce a seamless solution for calculating the embodied carbon of your projects by integrating estimating data from Cubit Estimating with One Click LCA. This integration allows you to export data from Cubit Estimating in a specialised format, enabling effortless export of your items and quantities into One Click LCA. Behind the scenes, we’ve meticulously designed the export to streamline the process, giving you a comprehensive overview of your project’s embodied carbon. Once exported from Cubit Estimating, One Click LCA provides a range of tools to perform the necessary carbon calculations for your reporting with ease.

One Click LCA is a globally recognized leader in decarbonizing construction and manufacturing. Their user-friendly, automated life-cycle assessment (LCA) tools empower users to calculate and minimize the environmental impacts of building, infrastructure, and renovation projects. For manufacturers in the construction sector, One Click LCA offers product LCA tools to conduct assessments and publish third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). Additionally, the platform facilitates streamlined evaluations of circularity, life-cycle costs, and biodiversity impacts.
