SimaPro 10.2 - 2025/04/17
Changes to data libraries- ecoinvent 3.11, allocation, cut-off by classification
- Further speed optimization especially when opening databases, projects, loading methods, and comparing multiple processes
- Handy new feature where you can now select a default method straight from the calculation setup without having to go back to the Methods section in the LCA Explorer screen.
- Improvements in keyboard navigation.
- Refined default import settings for CSV imports.
- Improved chart layout.
In addition, this release includes the following bug fixes that were present in some versions of SimaPro Craft 10.1:
- Fixed internal error that appears when analyzing, comparing using SimaPro Faculty, Classroom (was only present in 10.1.0.2)
- Fixed registration issues when installing SimaPro 10.1.0.2 or SimaPro 10.1.0.3 on Asian machines (specifically for China, Taiwan, Japan and Korea).
- Resolved “Scan Tree” issue in the Analysis Groups that used to trigger an error.
- Bug fix after converting to constants.
- Fixed disappeared entries in disposal scenarios after saving.
- Fixed issue where parameter sets values in the calculation setup can change upon sorting and once changes are saved
- Defined pi (π) as a fixed parameter in SimaPro hence SimaPro will automatically recognize it without requiring manual definition. As such, when you open the database first time in SimaPro, SimaPro will detect this and automatically remove these constant parameters to avoid confusion. Your expressions and calculations will remain correct.
- Bug fix in showing input and output flows in Network and Tree as percentage.
- Bug fix in deleting multi-output process including text correction when allocation exceeded 100%.
- Resolved drag and drop issue in methods and product stages.
You can find more information in the What's new in SimaPro 10.2 and the SimaPro methods' manual.

SimaPro 10.1 - 2025/02/19
Faster calculations, import and export- The most significant change in SimaPro Craft 10 lies beneath the surface. By updating the programming language to the latest version of Delphi, we optimized the software performance:
- Calculations now run 3 times faster
- Importing data takes half the time
- Loading of processes and parameters is quicker.
- Release Notes
- We’ve added a few features that make your software experience smoother and more efficient:
- Selection of multiple lines at once to easily copy, paste, and delete
- Enhanced navigation, project filtering, and expression check
- Real-time synchronization for multi-users
- More Details
New and updated methods and databases
- SimaPro Craft 10.1 comes with the latest impact assessment methods and data libraries:
- New data: U.S. Life Cycle Inventory (USLCI) and U.S. Environmentally-Extended Input-Output (USEEIO)
- New methods: Environmental prices 2023, MarILCA, and TRACI 2.2
- Database Manual

SimaPro 9.6 - 2024/04/15
Changes to data libraries- ecoinvent 3.10, allocation, cut-off by classification (other system models available as additional libraries)
- Characterization factors have been added to all (applicable) methods for:
- New and formerly missing energy resources
- New regionalized water flows
- Formerly missing waterborne emissions of water to the oan sub-compartment
- Formerly missing nitrogen and phosphorus substances
- Characterization factors have been updated in all (applicable) methods as follows:
- have been revised with resulting changes in characterization factors for a few land use flows
- Sub-regions that don’t have a characterization factor in the original method have inherited the characterization factor of the main country (e.g. BR-GO has inherited the characterization factor of BR) instead of inheriting it from the global region
- Characterization factors for energy resources have been aligned within an impact category on either higher or lower heating value
- Characterization factors of a few nitrogen and phosphorus substances have been updated based on corrected stoichiometry calculations

SimaPro 9.5 - 2023/04/12
Changes to data libraries- ecoinvent 3.9.1, allocation, cut-off by classification (other system models available as additional libraries)
- Agri-footprint 6.3, economic allocation
- Industry data 2.0 (updated data from worldsteel; new dataset for LBP from Alliance for Beverage Cartons and the Environment (ACE))
- New method | Environmental Footprint 3.1 (adapted)
- New method | EN15804 + A2 (adapted)
- New method | Mineral resources dissipation (Poncelet et al. 2022)
- Minor method updates and corrections
- Removing unused database and project parameters in the copy tree and export (as CSV) functions
- Deselecting libraries not being used in your project(s) (under File > Database Management). This will save considerable time when opening projects and loading processes. Note: for multi-user installations, this feature is only available for the for Manager
- Filtering on obsolete processes after scanning project(s) (via Tools > Projects to Libraries Links Manager)
- Improvements in the database packing process
- Improvements in Silent installation
- Clearer warning messages when license deactivation fails
- When exporting to Excel, the option to export to Excel97 (XLS) has been removed (format XLSX remains).
- Selecting/deselecting multiple rows when replacing database parameters
