Recorded Carbon Result

0.711kgCO₂e/Wp

A1–A3 GWP-total per watt-peak, per EPD (repaid by generation)

A1–A3 covers raw-material supply, transport to manufacture and manufacturing. It is product-stage information, not a whole-life result.

Third-party verified

Third-party verified (International EPD System). Declared per 1 Wp (standard for PV). As a generator it repays this embodied carbon: ≈0.71 kgCO2e/Wp offset within a few years by displacing grid electricity. Not directly comparable per-m² with roof tiles.

It is reported separately and never added to A-C. Do not compare bar lengths between materials. Each chart may use a different scale and declared unit.

* A4/A5 are EPD scenarios, not project-specific results. Module D is outside the A–C system boundary and is not added to A–C. Module nomenclature follows BS EN 15978 / EN 15804. Declared values are suitable as inputs to a whole life carbon assessment under the RICS Professional Standard (2nd edition); this panel is not an assessment.

* Includes the EPD’s A4/A5 scenario assumptions, not project-specific transport or installation. This is the aggregation the proposed Part Z applies upfront limits to.

Service Life — the B4 Replacement Input

25 years · EPD reference service life

≈3 installations over a 60-year building study period.

B4 (replacement) follows the building, not the product: an assessor multiplies replacement cycles by project quantities. This record supplies the service life and does not compute B4.

2 claims and 1 certification are held in the staging record but not presented as product evidence because an exact public source has not yet been mapped.

Comparison Status

This result should be displayed for information only and not ranked against another product.

  • • The declared or functional unit is missing.
  • • The PCR and version are missing.
  • • The GWP indicator is missing.
  • • The carbon result is not linked to an evidence source.
  • • The EPD is not linked to an evidence source.

Evidence Gaps

  • 2 sustainability claims are withheld because exact public evidence is not mapped.
  • 1 certification is withheld because exact public evidence is not mapped.

Design & Specification Notes

Qualitative notes for early design discussion. Not product-specific EPD evidence, and not a basis for numerical comparison.
