It presents an analysis of the evolving landscape of material efficiency standardization, the majority of which has been undertaken in the framework of the European Ecodesign Directive, soon to be repealed by the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation. The impending policy shift will include a very broad extension of product scope, a strengthening of the way in which material efficiency aspects are addressed, and wider potential for product labelling. During the stakeholder consultation process, the European Commission announced that the durability of products would be one of the major topics in the new regulatory approach - hence the specific focus of this paper on durability scoring. The paper first examines the policy and standardization context, and then provides an overview of material efficiency indexes and scoring systems currently in place or being developed. It highlights where standardization is following policymaking, and where standardization is paving the way for more circular products. Scoring systems and indexes could potentially be used for both (i) setting minimum requirements for products entering the EU market, and (ii) consumer labels on material efficiency aspects such as product durability that could trigger environmentally sustainable purchase decisions. Subsequently, a methodological framework for a comprehensive durability scoring system that could be developed in standards is proposed, and the potential for these to be used as a basis for product legislation is explored. Potential durability criteria are listed, divided into technical, servicerelated and further aspects. Technical aspects include external factors that influence the durability of products such as drop/shock resistance. Service-related aspects include, for example, pre-purchase information provision on battery replaceability or availability of software updates. Other aspects include for example pro.

An environmental assessment approach for additional product functions and its application in the case of fridge-freezers N2 - Next to primary functions, energy-related products have an increasing number of additional functions. This affects the overall environmental footprint, but the question is how? A number of European policy strategies, initiatives and measures, such as the Green Deal, the Circular Economy Action Plan,the Ecodesign Directive and the EU Energy Labelling, aim to ensure that the environmental impact of the overall product is better determined, communicated and finally reduced. A core element of these efforts is the DIN EN 4555x series of standards. However, there is currently no comprehensive and systematic classification of the additional product functions or an approach to assess the associated positive and negative environmental impacts. Therefore, we present in this study an environmental assessment approach for additional product functions and illustrate its application in the case of fridge-freezers. A key element of the life-cycle-oriented methodology is an assessment matrix to categorize and evaluate the direct, indirect and systemic impacts of products’ functions. Based on semiquantitative assessments of experts, the matrix provides an indication of how the additional function affects the overall environmental product impact as well as specific product aspects such as durability or reparability. Based on the results experts can discuss and better understand how specific functions can influence various stages of the product life cycle and how intended systemic changes or rebound effects could occur. As part of the approach, a representative survey was conducted to analyze consumers’ knowledge and information needs. Based on the results, recommendations for purchasing decisions and the consumer information were developed. This paper presents the results from the assessment of the additional functions of fridge-freezers.

In the wake of the ongoing transition of the road-vehicle sector, fuel-cell vehicles (FCVs) have received increased political attention. However, they constitute only a tiny fraction of total road vehicles nowadays and still face competition from other powertrain technologies. Therefore, this study specifically focuses on how the focal technological innovation system of FCVs is influenced by the emerging electric vehicles (EVs) and established internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) as its context structures. To this end, our time-series vector error correction models analyze the short- and long-run causalities between our focal TIS and its context structures. Using publications, patents, and standards as quantitative TIS indicators, we analyze the modes of technology interaction between FCVs and EVs and FCVs and ICEVs to determine the life-cycle phase of our focal FCV-TIS in more depth. Our results demonstrate that the FCV-TIS is in its formative phase based on the dominance of the EV and ICEV context structures. As policy implications, we derive application-sensitive technology policies that combine the benefits of each mobility technology toward the sustainable transition of the mobility sector.

T1 - Sustainability assessments of bio-based products: From research to practice (and standards)☆ N2 - The transition from a linear, fossil-based economy to a circular, bio-based economy is needed in order to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. However, it is important to ensure that the bio-based economy delivers the expected environmental and social impacts, by respecting and implementing sustainability principles. One effective way to reduce uncertainty regarding bio-based product properties and benefits is through the use of sustainability standards, certification schemes, and ecolabels. These measures can play a significant role in advancing the transition to a sustainable, circular bio-based economy. They provide a solid foundation for assessing sustainability of “green” products and initiatives and contribute greatly to building trust in products among consumers, providing a reliable framework for sevaluation. To measure the sustainability of bio-based products, several robust and reliable tools are under development, gathering evidence from research and collaborative efforts of several European projects.

T1 - Normung bei der politischen Entscheidungsfindung N2 - Die Realisierung von Nachhaltigkeitszielen und die Umsetzung der Klimastrategien stützt sich in der Regel auf zwei zentrale Säulen. Erstens, die kontinuierliche Senkung der eigenen Emissionen durch Maßnahmen zur Energieeffizienz sowie die Erreichung von CO2-Neutralität. Zweitens, ein optimiertes Ressourcenmanagement durch ein intelligentes Vermeidungskonzept. Für die Umsetzung der Ziele sind verlässliche Daten und Methoden erforderlich, die eine vergleichbare Erfassung der CO2-Emissionen ermöglichen. Aktuell existieren einige Normen, Standards und Richtlinien, die mit unterschiedlichem Erfolg und Tiefe zur Bestimmung der CO2-Bilanz angewendet werden. Eine transparente Bestimmung des Produkt-Kohlenstoff-Fußabdrucks (PCF) fördert die Kommunikation umweltfreundlicher Praktiken und stärkt das Vertrauen der Verbraucher. Zudem sind Unternehmen gefordert, ihre Kosten zu senken, um wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben. In diesem Kontext kann die Analyse des PCF dazu beitragen, ineffiziente Prozesse aufzudecken und dadurch Kosteneinsparungen zu erzielen.. Der Workshop der Forschungsfabrik Mikroelektronik richtete sich an Unternehmen und Einrichtungen, die ihren jeweiligen PCF im gesamten Produktionsprozess bereits ermittelt haben oder an diejenigen Institutionen, die es in Zukunft anstreben (müssen). Der Vortrag zur Rolle der Normung in der Rechtssetzung stellte den Auftakt der Diskussion dar, inwiefern Normung den oben genannten Prozess begleitet und ggf. Trends setzt.
