   LCC-driven procurement  evaluated  
Life cycle costs are the most complete cost indicator and at the same time favour energy efficient technologies.
Technology field: Management and organisation
open main section General information
open main section General criteria
close main section Environmental criteria
  close sub-section Impacts on energy efficiency:
  Energy efficiency potential for single vehicle: not applicable
  Energy efficiency potential throughout fleet: not applicable
    A greater role of LCC in purchasing would have a positive effect on the average energy efficiency of new stock. These effects are undoubted but difficult to quantify in general terms.
  Other environmental impacts: neutral
    Especially if end-of-life aspects of rail vehicles are included in the LCC perspective, there could be positive environmental aspects in the field of recycling etc.
