Tool Details

Description

The SMART SPP LCC-CO2 Tool helps procurers, requisitioners, carbon managers and energy managers, as well as political decision makers, to calculate the real cost of a good or service and, at the same time, helps them to find out how their purchase contributes to their climate bill by calculating the CO2 emissions. This is done by calculating not only acquisition but also maintenance, operation and end-of-life costs. The Tool is presented alongside a practical guide explaining the steps a public authority can take to encourage energy efficient innovation through public procurement.
