1 to 5 scale Lower is better. 1: strong market- or operating-data basis 2: commercially plausible, but still somewhat specific 3: partly representative, with modelling or adaptation bias 4: pilot, proxy-based, scaled-up, or prospective 5: weak representation of the real technology state Technological representativeness
1 to 5 scale Lower is better. 1: geography matches the claimed scope well 2: regionally credible, but broader or less exact 3: generic regional or global proxy 4: weak proxy or clear geographic mismatch 5: geography is effectively unsupported Geographical representativeness
1 to 5 scale Lower is better. 1: current for that technology class 2: slightly dated, but still good 3: dated enough to need caution 4: stale, pilot-era, or prospective relative to current practice 5: clearly not representative of the current state Temporal representativeness

Missing exchange uncertainty generation: Not requested

Representativeness scores use a 1–5 scale when provided. Lower scores indicate a closer fit to the modeled technology, geography, or time period.

Evidence: 6. Qualification: Source review retains every exact compiler activity candidate and all explicitly qualified original chemistry-sheet variants before checking quantities. Crenna (2021) directly publishes NMC111, NMC811 and NCA models, normalized in SI2 columns J/K; original amounts in C/E and LCIA sheets have different roles. Compiler equality does not certify native suppliers, uncertainty or a measured inventory period. The explicit chemistry is outside the three complete Crenna models. The Crenna primary-source label is replaced by supporting ancestry; Dai2019 is retained as supporting context, not substituted as a verified primary recipe. No neighbouring-chemistry substitution or coefficient change is proposed.

Version metadata Technological representativeness 2 4
Version metadata Temporal representativeness 2 4
Version metadata Intended application Not set Mass-based cathode-collector supply within the retained LFP model. Apply reviewed discovery metadata and change explanations from the curated release.
Version metadata Methodology and allocation explanation Not set Material supply and rolling are separate stock and processing roles; their amounts do not imply 2 kg retained metal. No additional foil-finishing yield is assigned.
Version metadata System boundary Not set Primary aluminium and represented rolling through a mass-based collector reference; active paste and cell assembly are separate.
Version metadata Technology description Not set One kg primary aluminium ingot is paired with 1 kg aluminium sheet-rolling service.
Version metadata Limitations on use Not set Ingot/rolling proxies do not establish battery-foil gauge, surface treatment, grade, rolling loss or manufacturing scrap recovery.
Version metadata Name Cathode current collector, LFP cathode current collector, LFP Activity and product names now follow consistent catalogue spelling, so the intended inventory and its supplier references remain identifiable.
Version metadata License CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0 CC-BY-NC-4.0 Schmidt et al.’s supplementary battery inventory is the corroborated source and declares CC BY-NC 4.0. That source-specific licence replaces the previous article-derived NoDerivatives label.
