With the Project:
Circular System for Assessing Rare Earth Sustainability (CSyARES)
The Circular System for Assessing Rare Earth Sustainability (CSyARES) project aims to improve the sustainability of rare earth supply for low-carbon technologies. By quantifying the environmental impacts of rare earth element production, it ensures the transition to decarbonization uses responsibly sourced materials. Minviro and REIA have developed new PCR standards, which will be integrated into Circularise's traceability system to meet regulatory requirements. Industry partners like Grundfos and BEC will support the project's demonstration, showcasing energy conservation and labor conditions within the REE value chain.
