FAIL: import BAFU db using brightway
02:17 06 Jan 2026

I tried to import the ecospold01 file version of the BAFU database. We can find the files in openlca nexus.

I followed the bw2io documentation, and the openlca ecospold01 file import example ➡️ no success ❌.

Some of you made it?

Here is my attempt:

import bw2data as bd
import bw2io 

project_name = "your_project"
bd.projects.set_current(project_name)
from bw2io.importers.ecospold1 import SingleOutputEcospold1Importer

importer = SingleOutputEcospold1Importer(
    "C:/my_path/LCI-ecospoldv1-files",
    "BAFU-2025",
    use_mp=False
)

importer.apply_strategies()
importer.statistics()
importer.write_database()
