Franziska Erber will highlight the core concept of the circular economy at the "House of Energy Congress" during Light + Building 2024: preserving the value of products and materials as much as possible at the end of their use phase. Through strategies like recycling, reuse, and extending the life cycle of products, significant savings in resources and a reduction in global emissions can be achieved. You will learn through practical examples how companies and organizations are already implementing these principles and the progress society is making towards a more sustainable economy.
