A new version of our software, openLCA 2.6.1, is now available for users.

Improved features

User interface

We improved the user interface, for example adjusting the size of the search box on certain display resolutions and refining the dark mode theme.

Regionalized LCIA

The most significant update is the major memory reduction for regionalized impact assessment. Previously, this calculation required a large amount of memory and could be challenging for some users. Now, it requires significantly less memory and runs more smoothly. Overall, users can expect faster calculations, including direct impact calculations.

Bug fixes

We focused on fixing some bugs from v2.6.0 to make the user experience even smoother. This includes, but is not limited to, easier deletion of process chains in the graphical editor and better support for opening Python scripts on macOS & Linux.
