Circular Europe. How to successfully manage the transition from a linear to a circular world.

"CIRCULAR EUROPE" STUDY BY ENEL AND THE EUROPEAN HOUSE – AMBROSETTI. FOR THE FIRST TIME THE STATE OF THE ART OF CIRCULAR ECONOMY IN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES HAS BEEN MEASURED: THE TRANSITION TO A CIRCULAR ECONOMY WILL BRING ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS THROUGHOUT EUROPE

The study analyses the state of the art of Circular Economy in Europe (27 EU countries and the United Kingdom) using an innovative analysis model, the Circular Economy Scoreboard, which considers all the macro-dimensions of the phenomenon: use of sustainable inputs, end of life, the extension of the useful life of products/services, and an increase in the intensity of use. The study assesses the economic, social, and environmental benefits involved in the transition to a circular development model in the EU as well as in Italy, Romania, and Spain.
In the EU, Circular Economy is linked to 300-380 billion euros of GDP, 90-110 billion euros of investments, and up to 2.5 million jobs in 2018. Circular Economy generates major environmental benefits, arising from the use of renewable energy and materials or from re-use and recycling, a circular design from an early stage, and targeting future life cycles, the extension of useful life, and the increase in the intensity of the use of goods and products.
