Whitepaper: How the legislative framework can stimulate circular, biobased construction
Samenvatting
Following the signature of the Paris Climate Agreement, governments developed policy to limit the anticipated warming of the climate. For the construction industry, this mostly involves economic use of raw materials and reducing power consumption in the production and use of buildings. In order to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, a different perspective on the economic model arose: the circular economy as a counterpart to the current linear economy. Legislation and regulations follow up on this development, but only recently so. A lot has been put into motion.
In this white paper, we set out the developments in legislation and regulations for a circular construction industry. One of the developments is a greater role for renewable materials and products in that future economy.
This white paper answers various questions:
• What legislation and regulations are important to scale up circular, bio-based construction?
• What lessons can be drawn from the difference in approach between the countries involved?
• How much of a barrier does legislation and regulation really pose?
• How flexible is legislation and regulation in view of function change?
• How much room does legislation and regulation offer for stimulating circular, bio-based construction
