Frequently asked questions

One Click LCA and MEP 2040 partnership

What is MEP 2040?

The MEP 2040 challenge is a call to building systems designers to transform mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems within the AEC sector, setting a bold target of net-zero carbon by 2040. At its core, the challenge encapsulates a mission: All systems engineers shall advocate for and achieve net zero carbon in their projects: operational carbon by 2030 and embodied carbon by 2040

How does the partnership work?

This partnership will promote the use of an easy and affordable MEP tool for MEP designers on a sufficient scale to reduce embodied carbon in MEP equipment and systems, potentially achieving a broad decarbonization impact across the entire industry.

The key objectives of the partnership are to:

  • Supply the MEP industry with an affordable, tailored carbon tool: the MEP Carbon Tool, available free of charge for 6 months to all signatories and supporting organizations of MEP 2040.
  • Train MEP professionals to help the industry meet decarbonization goals at scale.
  • Work together to create foundational MEP project LCA modeling methodologies, enabling a more seamless flow of data for system, building, and regional benchmarking.
  • Promote the creation of high-quality MEP environmental product declarations (EPDs) at scale.

Who gets complimentary access to the MEP Carbon Tool?

All signatories and supporting organizations of MEP 2040 can receive a six-month free license to use One Click LCA's MEP Carbon Tool to help start their journey to decarbonization.
