PILOT PROJECTThe Institute for Building Physics (IBP) is one of the Institutes that constitute the Fraunhofer Society (FhG). The department Life Cycle Engineering (GaBi) is globally recognised in the field of life cycle studies. GaBi personnel have helped develop industry standard life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology, as well as software and databases. The GaBi department started in 1989 and since then their research engineers have accumulated hundreds of person-years of outstanding experience in both public and industry research projects. It offers any kind of service related to life cycle thinking, including LCA, life cycle costing (LCC), life cycle working environment (LCWE), design for environment (DfE), energy efficiency benchmarks, and material flow analysis (MFA).
