The life cycle assessment of a grid‐connected, parking integrated, 222 kW p cadmium telluride photovoltaic system has been performed. The system was built at the University of Murcia and has been monitored for 2.5 years (sampling data every 5 min). The detailed material inventory, the energy embedded in the system, the energy payback time, and the energy return factor of the facility have been obtained and are 6.31 TJ equivalent primary energy, 2.06  and 12.16years, respectively. The average performance ratio is 0.8 with a slight monthly variation. Additionally, the environmental benefits of the architectural integration (in this case parking integration) have been quantified using a standard methodology for the calculation of several environmental parameters. Finally, the environmental benefits of renewable energy generation because of the savings of producing the same amount of electricity by the Spanish grid system have been assessed. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. We have performed a life cycle assessment (LCA) on a 222 kWp cadmium telluride parking‐integrated grid‐connected photovoltaic facility(PV). Irradiance and generated power have been monitored during 2.5 years, which delivered an average performance ratio of 0.79 and an energy payback time of 2.06 years. The real case has been compared with LCA of the same size parking without PV and to a 222 kWp ground‐mounted PV facility. The environmental benefits of integration of the CdTe modules into the parking structure are presented and are discussed.
