Sustainable transition & Circular economy

We offer a portfolio of research and services to provide sustainable solutions to businesses and authorities. Our work helps optimize the use of resources and economic/societal gain and minimize negative effects on health, the environment and climate.

Environmental and Carbon Footprints
We offer environmental and carbon footprint assessment for products, processes, and services using tools like Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and environmentally extended input-output analysis (EE-IO).

Circular Economy

For authorities and policymakers, NILU can provide expertise in economic modeling and integrated assessment. This supports cost-benefit analyses, policy advice on circular economy strategies, and assessments of socio-economic impacts of environmental policies.

Economic Modeling and Integrated Assessment

We have specialists in economic modeling and integrated assessment using advanced techniques such as Input-Output (IO), Environmentally Extended IO (EEIO), and Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models.

Climate Adaptation and Nature Based Solutions
Our work emphasizes the use of nature-based solutions (NBS) for climate adaptation and sustainable development. We contribute to projects and initiatives that address climate mitigation, adaptation, biodiversity, and community resilience.
