Center IUS - What can we offer?

Center for Industrial and Urban Symbiosis can help you identify, gather various relevant skills and analyzes based on your needs. Examples of analyzes are, for example, life cycle analyzes to quantify the environmental impact from the operation of symbioses, execution of techno-economic analyzes from different perspectives and questions, as well as analyzes of the economic feasibility from a life cycle perspective. System analyzes with a focus on how different parts of the system interact, e.g. analysis of system dynamics, are also important for investigating resilience and creating scenarios for the future and understanding risks and opportunities with different development paths of the symbiosis network.
