Agenda 2030 - Research to enable a circular building sector
Project Leader: Ulla Jansson (at IIIEE Lena Neij)
Duration: 2022-2024
Financing Body: LU-projekt
Collaborators: LU projekt
IIIEE researchers: Paul Gotia
Aim: Globally, the construction industry is a major producer of emissions. It uses considerable natural resources and energy and generates large volumes of waste. The industry is in great need of adaptation in order to be sustainable in the long term. Providing support for a circular building sector requires several approaches and the research project is intended to be part of a larger centre of expertise in which experience and knowledge are shared between academia, industry and local communities. The project will cover policies and regulations, responsibilities and agreements, economic models and goals for waste and district heating.
