ILCAN and Centre for Environment and Forestry
Standardization Shared the Potential Use of LCA in
Policy to Indonesian Technical Ministries
Dr. Edi Iswanto (Left) and Ir. Noer Adi Wardojo, M. Sc. (Right) explaining the potential use of LCA in Policy and its study cases
ILCAN continues to work along the Indonesian government to promote the use of LCA in research and industrial
applications. Technical Ministries, as one of the stakeholders in industry, contribute to setting up policies that are
required to support sustainable development. As LCA is the metrics for sustainability, it is important for the
Technical Ministries to understand how they can use LCA in their policy development. Pusat Standardisasi
Lingkungan dan Kehutanan invited ILCAN to provide technical training and equip policy makers with
understanding on LCA in April.
The training was presented by Dr. Edi Iswanto Wiloso, Dr. Jessica Hanafi, and Ir. Noer Adi Wardojo. The training
was attended by approximately 50 participants from various technical ministries, such as Ministry of Industry,
Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and National Development Planning Agency
(BAPPENAS). The event was opened by the Head of Centre for Environment and Forestry Standardization,
Ministry of Environment and Forestry of Republic Indonesia, Ir. Noer Adi Wardojo, M.Sc. In his opening speech,
Pak Adi Wardojo remarked that LCA can be used for developing various policies, from Ecolabelling (both type I
and III), resource efficiency in production, emission reduction to setting up environmental target. Dr. Edi Iswanto
Wiloso pointed out that LCA can be use in most of all sectors, including energy, construction, and marine. The use

of LCA can help to boost the competitiveness of local products in international market. The concept, methodology
and step-by-step guide of LCA were presented by Dr. Hanafi to participants during the interactive 2-day training
sessions. The participants seemed enthusiastic along the sessions, and some of them shared their idea how they
will implement LCA in their area of authority.

also gave a lecture in RECP Master Class Series on Life Cycle Assessment, explaining what LCA is and how it is
related with RECP principles.

Conducting a research on the sustainability of civet coffee, she considered three aspects of assessments. Those
include assessments of environmental aspect, social aspect, and economic aspect. She employed the methods of
Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA), Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Social Life Cycle Assessment (SLCA),
and Life Cycle Costing (LCC). The methods, however, is still rarely applied in the School and is completely new to
her.
She learned that challenges to successfully adopt LCA require clear understanding of its concept and passion in
doing so. In addition, Ellyna is fortunate in having the best LCAs source persons to consult/discuss with. After
spending more than one year, she did data inventory from 6 (six) civet coffee models in West Java and Bali. To her,
data inventory is the toughest step of LCA implementation. It heavily demands appropriate references and
accurate data collection. She even had to visit the fields six times to fully completed the data. Ellyna found that the
longer she spends with LCA, the more attractive it becomes. She enjoys calculating the impact assessment and
interpretation as they are more fun to do. LCA also offers various impact categories that allows her to select the
relevant discussion. On the other hand, she understands that the national database is still limited that needs to be
enriched, particularly on her related research. The international coffee database have just been released after she
has finished her research and she is looking forward to complement her research result on the Indonesian civet
coffee to the database.
In the effort to achieve (national) sustainable development goals, Ellyna believes that the works of LCA and ILCAN
will increase in Indonesia. For examples, making more people well informed about carbon footprint and global
warming, conducting more LCA, and having more LCA specialists. Since becoming a member in 2016, ILCAN just
like a new home to her. It is her expectations to have broader networking on LCA, updated information and
knowledge, and opportunities to do collaborative research.

As part of our strategy to enhance LCA research in Indonesia, ILCAN facilitates collaboration among LCA
communities, and other interested parties, by identifying and outreaching available LCA-related resources
(expertise, publications, inventory data, software, and others) in Indonesia. We encourage ILCAN members with
LCA competency to share their activities and resources to be known to others for possible collaboration. We also
encourage ILCAN members to give us comments or advises regarding our current activities, or expected activities
to be held. Visit our website www.ilcan.or.id for more information.
