The USLCI database provides individual gate-to-gate, cradle-to-gate, and cradle-to-grave accounting of the energy and material flows into and out of the environment that are associated with producing a material, component, or assembly in the U.S.
The goals of the USLCI Database project are to:
Maintain data quality and transparency
Cover commonly used materials, products, and processes in the U.S. with up-to-date, critically reviewed life cycle inventory data
Support the expanded use of life cycle assessment as an environmental decision-making tool
Maintain compatibility with international life cycle inventory databases
Provide exceptional data accessibility
Be fully and sustainably supported
Support U.S. industry competitiveness.
Federal Life Cycle Assessment Commons
The Federal LCA Commons (FLCAC) is an interagency community of practice for life cycle assessment research methods. The FLCAC collaborates to share expertise and methods to move toward common federal data modeling conventions and make federal data sets freely available through a web-based data repository.
Performing LCA:
Electricity, at eGrid, RMPA, 2010 Northern America

Special thanks to the Activity Browser Team (Marin Visscher, Marc Meide) for helping import into Activity Browser.
Activity Browser challenges - The database was processed inside Brightway2.5 libraries resulting in zip files for biosphere methods rather than numpy arrays. We had to reprocess them with Brightway2 to make them compatible.
