About CIRCuIT

CIRCuIT, which stands for Circular Construction in Regenerative Cities is a project funded by the EU Commission Horizon 2020, which brings together four European cities, Hamburg, Helsinki, Copenhagen, and London to undertake a fully circular and regenerative transition. This amazing project aims to move away from conventional construction practices into a more circular, eco-friendly, and regenerative construction approach. The project involves demolition practices, construction material recovering, building elements reuse, structural adaptability for future needs, and much more. With the collaboration of different demonstrators and the participation of multiple city partners, the CIRCuIT project will provide the tools of today to transition to a regenerative and circular tomorrow while sustainably reducing the extraction and use of virgin material and promoting a better and more eco-friendly building behavior.

Objective
​
Throughout Copenhagen, Hamburg, Helsinki Region and Greater London innovative solutions will be implemented through 36 pilot projects. The solutions will include:
​​
Urban mining and reverse cycles (Dismantling buildings to re-use and recycling of materials)

Extending building life through transformation and refurbishment

Designing for disassembly and flexible construction

Developing urban planning instruments to support cities in implementing circular construction solutions

Implementing Circularity Hub which will include a data platform to evaluate the progress of circular economy and regenerative capacity

Setting up a knowledge sharing structure in the form of the CIRCuIT Academy, to promote upscaling of solutions

Expected impacts

Increase the regenerative capacity within the four cities

Reduce yearly consumption of virgin materials by 20% in new built environments

Decrease 15% of related cost
