Industrial Symbiosis and Policy Integration: Enabling Sustainable Transitions
This article explores the role of policy and governance in enabling and scaling industrial symbiosis practices. It examines how regulatory frameworks, institutional support, and policy integration can facilitate collaboration among industries for the exchange of materials, energy, and by-products. The study highlights the importance of aligning environmental, economic, and industrial policies to overcome barriers such as lack of coordination, limited information sharing, and market constraints. It also discusses how effective policy design can accelerate the adoption of industrial symbiosis and support broader circular economy transitions.
