DeComposition Analysis DCA
 Ex-post component analysis of a certain environmental
parameter with well-known driving forces
 Raw Material Equivalents (RME), GHG emissions, etc.
 Parameter is decomposed into a product of relevant factors
 Factors (components)
 Contribution of these factors to parameter change
 Total effect on the parameter without a single factor while leaving the
other components constant is assumed to represent approximately the
contribution of this factor to the total change of the parameter

Decomposition Extrapolation DCE
 Ex-ante application of DeComposition Analysis comparing
two scenarios with estimations from base to target year
 Baseline scenario (Business as usual)
 Policy and Measures (PaM) scenario
 Estimation of total factor change from base to target year
 Expectation value
 Minimum
 Maximum
 Policies, measures and their interdependencies are
considered
 Rebound effects, mutual reduction or synergetic enhancement

4. Usage of DCA/DCE
Please don’t hesitate to contact us, if you are interested in
applying DCA/DCE in a Smart City or other regional (national)
project looking at PaMs regarding energy, raw material
equivalents (RME), GHG emissions or other environmental
parameters.
