Why circularity is key to a sustainable energy transition

There can be no circular economy without clean energy and no energy transition without a circular economy. The two are intrinsically linked and depend on one another. We call this relationship the energy-circular economy nexus.

Rising to the transport challenge by integrating adaptability in building design

Our inner-city high-rise environment that supports the connectivity of our transport infrastructure has traditionally been designed for the here and now. That needs to change in step with an uncertain climate and evolving human needs.

Garbage in – energy out: what you need to know when developing waste-to-energy projects in Southeast Asia

Rapid urbanisation in Southeast Asia means increased waste that needs to be managed. While this is clearly a challenge given that the region’s population is expected to rise from about 686,825 million to 724,664 million by 2030, it also presents an opportunity to manage this waste as a resource that can be reused, particularly in areas with limited land mass and where traditional landfill is not an option.

The case for re-using concrete

From reducing waste and carbon emissions to saving cost and retaining value, circular economy principles offer huge opportunities in the built environment. But a circular economy must not spin out into a spiral economy, as the quest for low-carbon concrete shows.

Summer of extremes put a spotlight on urgent need for nature-based climate adaptation solutions
