Circularity in Urban Regions

Circular paving in Amsterdam (Dutch)

How we work on circular cities

Why do we focus on cities? Globally, despite taking up just 2% of the global landmass, our urban centers consume more than 75% of natural resources, are responsible for over 50% of solid waste and emit up to 60% of greenhouse gases. In a word, cities are bulk consumers of energy, water and materials. This makes them major contributors to problems such as resource depletion, pollution and climate change. But cities are also the centers of our economy, concentrating capital, data and talent. This makes urban areas ideal spaces to develop and demonstrate innovative circular solutions – and create impact that matters.

Amsterdam recognizes this and has set clear policy goals. The city of Amsterdam committed to reducing material consumption by 50% in 2030 and becoming fully circular by 2050. The city has positioned itself as a front-runner in circular innovation. AMS Institute actively contributes to this by focusing on material infrastructures, biobased construction and data & governance.

Material infrastructures in urban areas are the physical structures that are needed to deliver services and facilitate urban life. Within this topic, we develop circular solutions for digital infrastructure, energy infrastructure, roads & waterways in public space and related logistics. Together with infrastructure, construction is responsible for the bulk of material and waste flows through the city. This is why we support knowledge development to achieve 20% biobased construction of all new residential buildings in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area. Our expertise includes the development of biobased building materials, life cycle analysis and policy-building perspectives. Data & governance pertain to the identification, collection and creation of relevant data and monitoring systems to keep track of the circular economy transition in the city, assess impacts, support decisions and direct investments to where they accelerate the transition

The transition to a circular city requires a systems overhaul. This is why we continuously strive to develop integrated solutions in our research and innovation projects - especially when two transitions may be at odds with one another. Examples of integrated solutions are that we work on are: circular solar panels, biological soil improvement and circular logistics.

ShaRepair

Circularity in Urban Regions

With urban vertical farming, food can be produced closer to consumers. Also, the heat produced by vertical farms can be captured and reused in urban energy grids. Can this type of agriculture be a solution to create our future, circular cities?

CINDERELA - living lab

Circularity in Urban Regions

In a circular society, we aim to close waste streams in order to keep valuable resources in the loop. One of these resource-rich waste streams is wastewater. CINDERELA transforms urine from wastewater into a nutrient-rich fertilizer.

Adaptive Circular Cities

Circularity in Urban Regions

Cities are jointly responsible for the consumption of 75% of the planet’s natural resources and produce 60–80% of all greenhouse gas emissions. This highlights why there is an urgent need for more circular cities.
