Information about the project
Boosting the uptake of emerging technologies in circular economy implementation in construction and buildings industry in Danube region to sustainably harness the tween transition for greener future
This project is supported by the Interreg Danube Region Programme co-funded by the European Union
Project summary
The construction and building industry in Danube region depletes resources, generates over a third of the total waste and emits greenhouse gases at large scale – more in lagging countries and less in the innovations’ pioneers in the area.
The fragmented and risk-averse construction sector is slow to adopt digital innovation across Danube area. Digital technologies serve as a prerequisite for a shift to circular constructions where building materials are reused. The circular economy (CE) has the potential to capitalise upon emerging digital technologies, such as big data, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain and the Internet of things (IoT), amongst others. These digital technologies combined with business model innovation are deemed to provide solutions to myriad problems in the diverse Danube region, related to CE transformation.
Applying new approaches and inter-sectoral solutions, the project aims to capture the essence of the achievement at the intersection of the CE and digital technologies with a focus on forging pathways of CE implementation across Danube countries. Federating efforts from quadruple-helix players, a well-functioning DR innovation ecosystem with a new Cluster for increasing regional capacities to absorb innovation will be formed to promote interregional RDI cooperation, exchanging cross-sectoral experiences between innovation actors from leading and lagging Danube countries.
Barriers to digitalisation-led CE transition will be identified and related policies – improved.
Important and applicable innovations for achieving the digitalisation enabled CE will be sought. Three pilots will be implemented to showcase how disruptive innovations for circular economy interventions can harness the ‘clean construction” practices in Danube region.
New Danube region strategy for improving circularity in the construction and building business will be deployed, agreed and popularised, with 13 national action plans and 1 Plan for up-scaling the Pilots.
BAA is a the Lead partner of the project.

Objectives
Project main objective
Forging new pathways to commonly enhance digitalisation-led circular economy innovations identification, piloting and transfer in construction and buildings industry and related policies in Danube region, ensuring stable pre-conditions to shifting the focus to a more sustainable territorial development
Specific objective 1
To set and enhance new sustainable forms of transnational territorial cooperation to design new future and emerging technological paradigms with highest potential to boost circularity in construction and related policies for their implementation
Specific objective 2
To valorise existing knowledge and identifying applicable trailblazer innovations in CE-driven emerging digital technologies for construction and buildings in Danube
Specific objective 3
Changing the framework conditions for implementation of CE approaches in construction and related waste management innovation and foster the sustainable uptake of advanced and emerging technologies in Danube area through:
-
commonly identifying, initiating, and realising 3 pilots in 3 Danube countries implementing digitalisation-led CE initiatives in construction to trigger CE related benefits as a demonstration to be transferred in other Danube countries
improving strategic documents and policies at territorial and transnational level.
Upheaving stakeholders’ capacity for their implementation and further improvement
