Eco-Efficiency Indicators for Urban Transport
This paper focuses on urban passenger transport eco-efficiency, which can be defined as the production of maximum benefits to society while minimising environmental impacts from urban transport’s inputs of energy and materials. Researchers have intensively studied transport’s varied environmental impacts, particularly through Life Cycle Assessment; this paper argues that primary transport energ...
متن کاملEco-Efficiency Analysis of Industrial Systems in the Songhua River Basin: A Decomposition Model Approach
Eco-efficiency is an important sustainable development and circular economy construct that conceptualizes the relationship between industrial output, resource utilization, and environmental impacts. This paper conducts an eco-efficiency analysis for basin industrial systems using the decomposition model approach. Using data on 10 cities in China’s Songhua River basin, we illustrate the evolutio...
متن کاملEco-Efficiency and its Role in Industrial Transformation
The ecological efficiency of industrial production has become the focus of a range of innovative and promising research and implementation activities. Eco-efficiency promises to achieve a less polluted environment at lower costs than pollution control and ensure human well-being with less detrimental effects than adaptation and remediation. At the same time, it is less radical and therefore off...
متن کاملThe development of regional collaboration for resource efficiency: A network perspective on industrial symbiosis
Industrial symbiosis (IS) improves regional sustainability through inter-firm collaboration for more efficient use of materials and energy. Drawing on the literature of IS and complex networks, this paper proposes three forming processes of IS networks corresponding to different institutional settings – preferential growth under self-organization, homogeneous growth under coordination and facil...
متن کامل“Uncovering” Industrial Symbiosis
Since 1989, efforts to understand the nature of interfirm resource sharing in the form of industrial symbiosis and to replicate in a deliberate way what was largely self-organizing in Kalundborg, Denmark have followed many paths, some with much success and some with very little. This article provides a historical view of the motivations and means for pursuing industrial symbiosis—defined to inc...
