System boundaries The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) overleaf is based on the EBI Cab 2000. It covers environmental aspects for the extraction and production of the raw materials used, transportation of major parts to the assembly plant, the energy consumption for final assembly (22kWh) as well as the energy consumption during use phase. It also covers the end-of-life activities.
The calculated energy consumption during use phase for one EBI Cab 2000 in service for 30 years is 18 458 kWh. The calculation is based on 9 hours of operation per day. No maintenance or replacement of materials is expected during the lifetime.

End-of-life Recyclability calculations are based on existing recycling processes that are commercially available and technically possible today. Energy recovery is included in the recyclability rate which is estimated to be 91 %. Furthermore the packaging materials used are made of 100% recycled material.
Other materials include electronics. Materials in need of special treatment at End-of-life are 17 kg.

The material resources cover the materials used for manufacturing the EBI Cab. The energy resources cover energy needed during manufacturing and use of the EBI Cab. A Swedish electricity mix including a variety of energy resources has been used in the calculations. The materials in need of special treatment are identified according to knowledge of existing recycling processes that are commercially available and technically possible today. Manufacture covers the materials and energy needed for assembly of the EBI Cab. Use covers the predicted and estimated processes during the use phase. End-of-life covers recycling, incineration with energy recovery and landfill. Credit for recyclability of metals and polymers is achieved by deducting the impact of production of the same virgin material or energy. Total sums up the manufacture, use and end-of-life phase.
Included in the LCA: Data for raw materials used throughout the life cycle Transportation of main components to final assembly Energy consumption during assembly and use
Not included: Manufacturing processes at suppliers The raw material waste produced in the manufacturing process Effects of possible accidents Energy and emissions for the end-of-life treatment
