This article investigates the phenomenon of rebound effects in relation to a transition to a Circular Economy (CE) through qualitative inquiry. The aim is to gain insights in manifestations of rebound effects by studying the Dutch textile industry as it transitions to a circular system, and to develop …

In a design and research studio of the Amsterdam Academy of Architecture six students investigated between September and December 2020 the transition to that post-fossil era, we visualized the expression of the post-fossil city of the future, we explored systems and solutions that we cannot yet imagine. …

The European Commission has selected the Northern Netherlands to become the leading European hydrogen region and supports establishment of a complete local (green) hydrogen ecosystem covering production, storage, distribution, refueling and final use of hydrogen (Cordis, H2Valley, 2019). In line with …
