Modelling Resource Efficiency - Modelli...

This project aims at analyzing the suitability of milestones set under the Flagship Initiative for a Resource-Efficient Europe for setting up quantified resource efficiency targets. The characteristics and current state of development of different milestones will be taken into account when setting the resource efficiency targets. Different options for resource efficiency targets will be analysed in this study including headline targets or sub-targets related to either outcomes or processes in more specific areas. It would further assess the impacts (economic, social and environmental impacts) of these quantified targets. The outcomes of this study will form the basis of discussions about the possible further elaboration of resource efficiency milestones and their suitability for providing a basis for target setting.
The Institute of Social Ecology is consulting the project team in two aspects:
• review the assessment of the indicators and quantified milestones/targets that are proposed in the Roadmap.
• review the findings of the impact analysis of the milestones and modelling.
