The open openLCA LCA Conference

10 – 11 April 2025 Berlin, Germany

After a sold-out first edition, we would like to give a warm welcome to openLCA.conf 2025, taking place in Berlin from the 10–11 April 2025. Doubling our event capacity from last year, we’re excited to bring together experts from across the field for two days of lectures, workshops and discussions on LCA research and practice.

Since its creation in 2007, openLCA has grown to become one of the most widely used LCA softwares both in its own right, and also as part of an interconnected family of LCA tools. Thanks to its low acquisition barrier and available resources, people all across the world are able to use openLCA for studies, projects and research.

openLCA.conf ’24

Hosted between April 15-16th in the vibrancy of Berlin, openLCA.conf ’24 marked the creation of a platform that brings openLCA users together. We had the pleasure of facilitating the deep exchange of insights and ideas through sessions spanning the ecosystem of openLCA, data, LCA across industries, case studies and more in the form of keynotes, panel discussions and presentations.

The conference demonstrated the tool’s wide applications, use cases, allowed for insights from us as the creators and enabled discussions to further propel the LCA space for meaningful impact. It was especially fulfilling to witness and engage in focused interactions within the community. We hope to keep evolving this platform every year and enable more learnings, discussions and outcomes. Stay on the lookout for openLCA.conf 2025!
