Presentation of the Circularity Assessment Tool

For the 4th project meeting of the RHODaS project, the project partners met in Barcelona at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). 
In addition to presenting the progress of the project and visiting the laboratory facilities of UPC, an Ecodesign workshop was also held, which was moderated by the Ecodesign research group. The aim was to identify relevant circular economy strategies and collect initial ideas for product improvement. The Ecodesign research group's newly developed tool was tested and evaluated for the first time. The methodology developed led to the desired results, but still shows room for improvement.

The valuable discussion on circular product design also enabled all participants to gain a better overall picture of the planned powertrain.

The collected workshop results will now be used as a starting point for more detailed workshops and research for the coming months.
