In last decades halide perovskites have emerged as strong candidates for widespread applications in the field of optoelectronics and solar cells [1]. Due to the significant progresses obtained in photoconversion yield during last years [2], metal halide perovskite-based devices have enabled competitive technical performance compared with that of commercialized rivals. In the context of the technological lab and semi-industrial development of an emerging technology, such innovative materials might greatly benefit from environmental sustainability assessment in an eco-design perspective. The use of inorganic-based sensitizers, the consumption of organic solvents during the synthesis of perovskite, the use of critical raw materials and the energy and resources efficiencies of processes used during the manufacturing of cells and modules are some of the main issues that need to be considered to have an exhaustive evaluation of the environmental profile of these innovative devices [3]. Stemming from the research output on sustainability of halide perovskite solar cells [4-7], in this work we present the advantages and insightful perspectives that life cycle assessment can provide to support the eco-design of innovative devices.
