Webinar VII: from Industrial Symbiosis Challenges to a Standardisation Roadmap: Insights from the RISERS Project

The European RISERS project – A Roadmap for Industrial Symbiosis Standardisation for Efficient Resource Sharing – explored how standardisation can help address these challenges and support the wider uptake of industrial symbiosis.

The webinar will:

• introduce the RISERS project, its objectives and why its work matters for industrial symbiosis,
• explain why common approaches and standardisation are important for wider implementation of industrial symbiosis,
• present the process used to develop the RISERS Industrial Symbiosis Standardisation Roadmap, including analysis of industrial symbiosis cases and priority synergies, existing standards and Technical Committees, R&I evidence, and policy and regulatory conditions,
• present the RISERS Industrial Symbiosis Standardisation Roadmap, including the main horizontal, sector-specific and system-level standardisation needs identified and the proposed directions for future action,
• highlight the roles of standardisation organisations, industry, research and innovation actors, and policymakers in taking the Roadmap forward.
