  • Measuring the impact of urban morphology on residential energy consumption at the neighborhood-level in the Netherlands

    Open AccessYu Han, Han Yu et al.ARTICLESustainable Cities and Society2026

    In the Netherlands, the residential sector accounts for 16.8% of national energy use, mostly from natural gas. Current policies and standards aimed at reducing residential energy consumption mainly focus on improving the performance of buildings and appliances. The critical role of urban morphology in moderating microclimate by cooling surrounding areas and shielding buildings from solar radiation has been demonstrated, particularly in hot-summer…

  • Projecting temperature-related mortality impacts at urban scale under climate scenarios

    Open AccessKedi Liu, Ranran Wang et al.ARTICLESustainable Cities and Society2026

    Global warming and resulting extreme weather patterns are expected to substantially increase temperature-related mortality, with urban populations especially at risk due to high density, rapid urbanization, and the urban heat island effect. While projections of the climate-health impacts in urban contexts have proliferated in the literature, systematic evaluation of methodological approaches underpinning the studies remains limited. Understanding…

  • An open-source regionalization approach for subnational Eemrio insights and proof-of-concept application to EU steel circularity

    Open AccessAnniek J Kortleve, Anniek Kortleve et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2026

    Environmentally extended multi-regional input–output (EEMRIO) analysis provides a robust methodology for assessing economic, social, and environmental footprints across nations and regions. Increasing its geographical resolution is essential for addressing local environmental issues and informing targeted policy decisions. While subnational EEMRIOs ideally rely on survey data, such data are often unavailable or resource-intensive to process. As a…

  • Accounting for learning in prospective LCA

    Open AccessSander van Nielen, René Kleijn et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2025

    Learning is important for the development of industrially deployed technologies, and learning curves have been used to determine future production costs. Although the effect of learning on costs has been extensively studied, little evidence exists for its effect on environmental impacts, and a conceptual underpinning is lacking. Based on a review of theoretical foundations and empirical evidence, this study presents a procedure for assessing lear…

  • Developing a material flow monitor for the Netherlands from national statistical data

    Open AccessRoel Delahaye, Vivian S C Tunn et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2023

    Effective monitoring of national circular economy policies requires consistent, national databases of material flows and environmental impacts. Yet, databases and indicators developed so far are scattered and inconsistent. To tackle this problem, Statistics Netherlands (CBS) developed a material flow monitor (MFM) that integrates existing statistics using principles of the System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA). The MFM is the physica…

  • Data implementation matters

    Open AccessBrenda Miranda Xicotencatl, René Kleijn et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2023

    Life cycle assessment (LCA) databases and software evolve. We analyzed to which extent software and evolving life cycle inventory databases affect the comparison of technology alternatives, using a comparative LCA on permanent magnets as a case study, with two selected software tools: CMLCA and Brightway LCA. We migrated the system models from the CMLCA to Brightway LCA software and alternated between the ecoinvent database versions 2.2 and 3.1 t…

  • How do carbon footprints from LCA and Eeioa databases compare? A comparison of ecoinvent and Exiobase

    Open AccessBernhard Steubing, Arjan de Koning et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2022

    Life cycle assessment (LCA) and environmentally extended input output analysis (EEIOA) are two widely used approaches to assess the environmental impacts of products and services with the aim of providing decision support. Here, we compare carbon footprint (CF) results for products and services in the ecoinvent 3.4 cut-off and the hybrid version of EXIOBASE. While we find that there is good agreement for certain sectors, more than half of the mat…

  • The future of artificial intelligence in the context of industrial ecology

    Open AccessFranco Donati, Sébastien M R Dente et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2022

    Artificial intelligence (AI) applications and digital technologies (DTs) are increasingly present in the daily lives of citizens, in cities and in industries. These developments generate large amounts of data and enhance analytical capabilities that could benefit the industrial ecology (IE) community and sustainability research in general. With this communication, we would like to address some of the opportunities, challenges, and next steps that…

  • Global distribution of material inflows to in‐use stocks in 2011 and its implications for a circularity transition

    Open AccessGlenn A Aguilar‐Hernández, Sebastiaan Deetman et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2021

    Around 40% of global raw materials that are extracted every year accumulate as in-use stocks in the form of buildings, infrastructure, transport equipment, and other durable goods. Material inflows to in-use stocks are a key component in the circularity transition, since the reintegration of those materials back into the economy, at the end of the stock's life cycle, means that less extraction of raw materials is required. Thus, understanding the…

  • Global environmental and socio‐economic impacts of a transition to a circular economy in metal and electrical products

    Open AccessBertram F de Boer, Elmer Rietveld et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2021

    Shifting from a linear to a circular economy could decouple environmental footprints from an ever growing global GDP. As footprints are increasingly driven by international trade, such a shift in a national economy would have global implications. In this study, we explore the global environmental and socio-economic impacts of hypothetical circular policy interventions affecting the consumption of metal and electrical products in the Netherlands. …

  • Modeling the circular economy in environmentally extended input–output

    Open AccessFranco Donati, Sidney Niccolson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2021

    Global environmental and resource problems ask for new ways of managing the production and consumption of resources. The implementation of new paradigms, such as the circular economy, requires decision‐makers at multiple levels to make complex decisions. For this, clear analyses and modeling of scenarios are of utmost importance. Meanwhile, as the sophistication of databases and models increases so does the need for user‐friendly tools to use the…

  • Negative-emissions technology portfolios to meet the 1.5 °C target

    Open AccessOscar Rueda, José M Mogollón et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2021Cited by: 8

    Our carbon-intensive economy has led to an average temperature rise of 1 °C since pre-industrial times. As a consequence, the world has seen increasing droughts, significant shrinking of the polar ice caps, and steady sea-level rise. To stall these issues’ worsening further, we must limit global warming to 1.5 °C. In addition to the economy’s decarbonization, this endeavour requires the use of negative-emissions technologies (NETs) that remove th…

  • Life cycle greenhouse gas emission and cost analysis of prefabricated concrete building façade elements

    Open AccessChunbo Zhang, Mingming Hu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2020

    Buildings are responsible for approximately 36% of carbon emissions in the European Union. Besides, gradual aging and a lack of adaptability and flexibility of buildings often lead to destructive interventions, resulting not only in higher costs but also in a large amount of construction and demolition waste (CDW). Recently, an innovative system (Ref. VEEP project) has been developed to recycle CDW for the manufacturing of energy‐efficient prefab…

  • When the Background Matters

    Open AccessAngelica Mendoza Beltrán, B Cox et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2020

    Prospective life cycle assessment (LCA) needs to deal with the large epistemological uncertainty about the future to support more robust future environmental impact assessments of technologies. This study proposes a novel approach that systematically changes the background processes in a prospective LCA based on scenarios of an integrated assessment model (IAM), the IMAGE model. Consistent worldwide scenarios from IMAGE are evaluated in the life …

  • Modeling copper demand in China up to 2050

    Open AccessDi Dong, Arnold Tukker et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2019

    In this paper, we develop a dynamic stock model and scenario analysis involving a bottom‐up approach to analyze copper demand in China from 2005 to 2050 based on government and related sectoral policies. The results show that in the short‐term, China's copper industry cannot achieve a completely circular economy without additional measures. Aggregate and per capita copper demand are both set to increase substantially, especially in infrastructure…

  • Life Cycle Assessment of Food Systems

    Open AccessStefano Cucurachi, Laura Scherer et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2019

    The production and consumption of food are responsible for serious environmental degradation. Given the nature of the global economy, the impacts of food are dispersed over the full extent of the planet because food commodities may travel long distances from production to consumption. In this Primer, we introduce the principles of life cycle assessment (LCA), which allows for the assessment of the global extent of the inputs, outputs, and potenti…
