Theseus H4C is a Horizon project which brings together industry, city authorities and research organisations in order to co-create innovative circular solutions for managing resources, waste, energy, water, infrastructure and networks.
The EU Circular Economy Resource Centre (EU CERC) has published a call for tenders intended to prepare policymakers and the private sector in EU CERC partner countries for the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation. Read all about it!
The InvestCEC project aimed to bridge the gap between local action and EU-wide ambition, offering investment readiness support and raising a fund to enable public/private partnerships.
It produced five factsheets setting out guides and replication materials developed by the project.
i-Foria Italia has validated a technology for recycling nappies, incontinence aids and sanitary pads - products which have always been considered unrecyclable owing to the wide mix of materials in them. i-Foria's technology separates the components and returns them to the production loop.
Global Gateway is the EU's strategy to boost smart, clean and secure connections in digital, energy and transport sectors, and to strengthen health, education and research systems across the world.
This session will explore how to promote innovative technologies, business models and strategies for scaling up Global Gateway investments in the circular economy, including waste management, in the Latin American and Caribbean region.
This webinar will explain how the EU Ecolabel for tourist accommodation services guarantees environmental excellence, enhances visibility to consumers and guarantees compliance with new and forthcoming EU legislation on sustainability labels.
Find out how it can make these services more competitive!
This briefing from the European Environment Agency looks at the links between the circular economy and climate change mitigation. Many reports and studies argue that this link exists, but estimates of its potential diverge greatly. See what the EEA has to say about why that is!
This report proposes a bold new idea for EU waste policy: an EU-wide cap-and-trade system to cut residual municipal waste – the waste that remains after prevention, reuse and recycling.
Instead of pushing waste from landfill to incineration, the proposed scheme would put a binding limit on total residuals, creating a strong incentive for waste prevention, reuse, refill and high-quality recycling.
The report also explains why major mineral and combustion wastes should be treated separately, and outlines how a fair, per-capita system could work in practice across the Member States, supported by robust monitoring and verification.
The FertiCovery project focuses on nutrient recovery and the production of fertilisers from biowaste, manure and wastewater.
This workshop will look at the upscaling potential of the 25 technologies assessed by the project and examine the regulatory frameworks governing them, including barriers and enablers.
