PhD thesis:

Energy and material interactions in demand-side mitigation pathways

 

Description of PhD thesis:

While integrated assessment models account well for cross-sector emission tradeoffs and feedbacks, important energy-material interactions are currently neglected. Robust mitigation scenarios require a complete understanding of these feedbacks for which it is necessary to evaluate circularity measures as a mitigation strategy. The greenhouse gas mitigation potential of demand-side circular economy measures is the focus of this project. 
Working within the CircoMod project.
