TRANSIENCE

Climate action, resource efficiency, and circularity performance are interconnected issues that significantly impact the economy as a whole. However, the current modelling capacity needs enhancement to capture their intricate interactions, thus posing challenges in representing the transformation of the European industry towards climate neutrality. The EU-funded TRANSIENCE project aims to address this gap by assessing circularity principles and measures for the decarbonisation of European industries. The project will develop MIC3, an open-source model ecosystem that integrates interoperable modules from various perspectives of industry transformation. Through extensive scenario modelling, TRANSIENCE will generate pathways to achieve a material-efficient, circular, climate-neutral, and sustainable European industry. Furthermore, the project will promote transparency, openness, and knowledge sharing while enhancing technical capacities in four EU industrial agglomerations.
