Athena LCA Software tools have been helping North American sustainable designers since 2002.

Athena Institute software allows construction industry professionals to compare alternate design scenarios and incorporate environmental considerations beginning at the conceptual stage of a project – when most critical decisions are made. All Athena software tools are available for free.

Robust environmental data in the background of our tools along with standards-compliant methodology provide reliable cradle-to-grave information for building materials and products, transportation, and construction and demolition processes.

The Athena Institute brings the power of LCA to designers without requiring them to become LCA experts themselves.

Athena Building LCA … coming soon.

The Impact Estimator for Buildings is PC-based desktop software that allows users to quickly model a building (or part of a building) at any stage of design. Users can also input energy simulation results to calculate their operating effects alongside their embodied effects.

Pavement LCA (formerly Impact Estimator for Highways) is a web application providing LCA results for roadway designs and other pavement projects.
