Short description (French)

Green-e 2.0 ¿ a highly configurable and interoperable web solution to compute the environmental impact of products, companies and industries.

Abstract (English)

The project consists in developing and commercializing Green-e 2.0, a web-based configurable and interoperable software solution able to quantify the environmental performance of companies and products using a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach (ISO 14'040 - 44), producing clear and understandable environmental performance reports. Green-e 2.0 will bring innovations at different levels: ¿ Web 2.0 interface using novel and advanced technologies such as SilverLight, Ajax or Xforms to render an intuitive interface that is automatically adapted according to the environmental computation ¿ Configurable computation of environmental metrics such as carbon dioxide footprint, primary energy consumption, impact on human health and other metrics using innovating software architectures based on extensible markup languages (XML) ¿ Connection to central data systems of enterprises to dynamically perform environmental analysis
