The Role of EPDs and LCAs in Sustainable Lighting

In the next edition of DIAL Spotlight, our host Klaus Bieckmann welcomes Technical Specialists from VDE Carolin Vogt (Sustainability) and Artem Masorin (Lighting) to explore Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) in the lighting industry. 

Together, they discuss why these topics are becoming increasingly relevant, how EPD data is created, and what planners need to consider when using it. The conversation also sheds light on comparability, real-world assumptions, and the growing role of sustainability data in tenders, certifications and everyday lighting design decisions.
