Raw Materials Acquisition and Manufacturing Stage The LCA shall include information for the following unit processes: ― Material extraction and manufacturing of main components and other components; ― Manufacturing of main components and other components; Trpt ― Product manufacturing/assembly; ― Transportation of main components to product manufacturing site; ― Transportation of other components to product manufacturing site.

materials and the manufacturing of smaller parts is of the voluntary reporting nature. When voluntarily reported information is included, they shall be explained in the EPD. Distribution and Marketing Stage - Transportation of products to the distribution sites or customer designated locations; - The inventory and reporting of energy/resource input and waste generation during the marketing process is optional (voluntary); - The inventory and reporting of transportation from sales/distribution sites to users is optional (voluntary). Use Stage 1. Assume the customer connected the product to the main power source after product purchase without ever unplugging the product. 2. Calculation equation: E TEC (MJ) = (8760/1000) × (P On × T On + P Standby × T Standby) × 3.6 × (product lifespan, yr) Notes: 1. P : Power consumption when the product is at the standby mode. Standby 2. Assume six hours per day and five days per week of use. The average product use per year is 1620 hours and 7140 hours at standby. 3. The average product service life: 5 years. 4. Both Px are power values in Watts. 5. Both Tx values are time values in percentage (%) of year. 6. 1.0 kilowatt-hour (kWh) = 3.6 MJ Recycling/end of life The reporting of recycling information (such as recycling and dis-assembly report and information on recycling channels) is mandatory in the EPD. 5
