Addressing Urban Development through Circularity

Circular Business Models including but not limited to Product-Service-Systems, Leasing, Buy-Back schemes, can create and retain value across the building sector and enhance credibility among real-estate investors. This supports Affordability, reduction of Energy-Poverty Risk, and continuous Accessibility to most advanced technical solutions to End-user. Such models require however a financial and risk-allocation validation. A clear ecosystem, governance structures, and accepted transactional agreements need to be identified. Furthermore, acceptance of circular solutions by end-user need to be considered.
