CE-RISE | Circular Economy Resource Information System
The Circular Economy Resource Information System (CE-RISE) is an EU-funded project aiming to optimise raw material reuse and recovery in electronic products.
CE-RISE is still very much a work in progress, but it seeks to create an information system and integrate digital product passports. It will provide stakeholders, including consumers, with a better understanding of the green credentials of electronic products and how to preserve important raw materials through the reuse, repair and recycling of these items.
The CE-RISE information system will be evaluated using five case studies, comprising digital product passports developed for:
- ICT products
- printers
- solar panels
- batteries, and
- heating systems.
Ultimately, CE-RISE aims to foster a dynamic ecosystem geared toward prolonging the use of materials and stimulating circular business models to reduce waste generation.
