Life cycle impacts from buildings are responsible for a high share of the climate impact globally. In recent years, it is increasingly acknowledged that climate impacts associated with the construction stage of buildings is responsible for a high share of total impacts. In this project international collaboration and harmonization aim to speed up mitigation measures for buildings through the application of LCA in policy and practice.

Population growth and urbanization has led to an increase in resource intensive and energy rich foods, where the public sector accounts for a large share of food consumption. This research project analyses the criteria that can be used in public procurement to influence sustainability of food consumption and production.

The “Sustainable Energy Transformations in Aviation (SETA)” project aims to contribute to an acceleration of sustainable energy transformations in aviation, with a focus on bio-based jet fuels and electric aircrafts. The project will be exploring the socio-technical opportunities and barriers related to these transformations.
