Abstract
It is important to consider regional characteristics in LCA for regional evaluation. To do this, a Regional Database reflecting regional characteristics is indispensable. Thus, this study aims to find an effective method in making a regional database. Firstly, we examined a way to consider environmental effects that reflect regional characteristics, such as levels of region and industry, pollutants, etc. Moreover, we suggested a method that requires the consideration of select industries, and making a database for electric power as a priority industry. As a result, it is clear that considering regional characteristics is important, and that making a regional database is necessary for this.
