The A-LCA IWG has decided not to submit a Working Document due to inability to reach agreement on outstanding issues. The IWG requests GRPE review and acceptance of revised Terms of Reference reflecting a shift toward information and technical exchange rather than developing a Resolution. Key unresolved contradictive issues include definitions, system boundaries, chain of custody, electricity modelling, prospective energy modelling, use stage provisions, deterioration factors, methane leakage, and methodologies for component replacements. Future activities will shift to information exchange with reduced meeting frequency pending establishment of a clear timeline for developing A-LCA methodology.
