Embodied energy is currently ignored because it is not included in the material description within an idf file.

One solution could be to feed archetypal an external file with embodied energy parameters for each of the materials included in the EnergyPlus model (see image bellow). The structure of this file is to be discussed here.

An integration of embodied energy within EnergyPlus has been requested in the past. See NREL/EnergyPlus#6579.
