The cabinet of the state government of Lower Saxony has instituted the ninth government commission “Circular Economy”. The focus of the new commission is directed at the further development of the classic recycling economy towards a circular economy in order to confront the challenges of climate protection and resource conservation. Prof. Stephan Krinke, Head of Department for “Sustainability Management and Life Cycle Engineering” at the Fraunhofer IST, has been appointed as a member of this commission, in which he will represent the Fraunhofer Institute and the TU Braunschweig.
The thematic priorities of the 20-strong commission are the development of reusable products, recycling, durability and reparability. A central focus will be formed by the work at the Center for Circular Economy in Mobility at the Open Hybrid LabFactory (OHLF) in Wolfsburg. Here, the Fraunhofer IST is collaborating with other Fraunhofer institutes together with research partners from the automotive and supplier industry in order to develop innovative technical concepts for a sustainable circular economy.
“I am delighted to be part of this important commission and to contribute, together with my team, towards the advancement of the circular economy in Lower Saxony,” explained Prof. Krinke.
