These are the stored source profiles for this version. Foreground methodology is recorded in Scientific metadata.
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.
Precalculated screening profile
Results per unit, using UVEK 2025 and the ecoinvent 3.10 biosphere. Exchange rows are shaded from green to red by relative contribution to the selected indicator.
This screening result uses Brightpath mappings from the source background to UVEK 2025; mapped suppliers are not claims of scientific equivalence.

| Version metadata | Methodology and allocation explanation | The source is a 2012 prospective assessment of Swiss/French EPRs in 2030, using mixed-vintage fuel-cycle and infrastructure data. Table 4 distinguishes CH 1500 MWe from FR 1530 MWe; the common 1500-MWe description is not valid for the French scenario. The regional RER copy is not a separately tabulated source scenario. The paper's normal-operation boundaries exclude nuclear accidents. Equipment membership is traced only through unambiguous declared foreground links; underlying bills of materials and supplier/biosphere adaptations remain incompletely verified. | Simons and Bauer (2012) is the primary source for the prospective Swiss/French EPR study. Earlier inventory work by Roberto Dones and Roth et al. (2009) is acknowledged in that study. The component bill of materials and its adapted suppliers are retained from CLIC; the paper's aggregate technology table does not independently verify this equipment recipe. Study year 2012 and scenario year 2030 do not date every material or background input. | |

| Version metadata | Technological representativeness | 2 | 4 | |
| Version metadata | Temporal representativeness | 3 | 4 | |
| Version metadata | Intended application | Foreground modelling of the declared EPR hardware, fuel-cycle or electricity-production configuration. | Equipment supply within the linked EPR infrastructure model, using the declared procurement unit and supplier profile. | Apply reviewed discovery metadata and change explanations from the curated release. |
| Version metadata | System boundary | Not set | Declared equipment or procurement package and its recorded upstream materials, forming, freight and component suppliers. Whole-plant operation, replacement schedule and decommissioning are separate from this supply reference unless explicitly represented by an exchange. | |
| Version metadata | Technology description | Not set | High-voltage switchgear represented by metal, insulating and other equipment materials with freight and the recorded sulfur-hexafluoride environmental exchange. That exchange is not an independently measured annual leakage rate. | |
| Version metadata | Limitations on use | Not set | The bill of materials is not independently validated by the paper's aggregate plant characteristics. Plant capacity, 60-year reactor life and fuel-cycle assumptions do not automatically specify this component's rating, service life or production volume. Supplier/biosphere adaptations, package completeness and freight ownership remain qualified. | |
| Version metadata | Name | Switchgear HV | switchgear HV | Activity and product names now follow consistent catalogue spelling, so the intended inventory and its supplier references remain identifiable. |
