2 Eurpe 2020 Strategy Creating the cnditins fr a smart, sustainable and inclusive grwth Sustainable Grwth => "waste as a resurce" Industrial plicy Flagship Initiative > Raw Materials Initiative Resurce efficiency Flagship Initiative > Circular Ecnmy Package 3 EU Raw Materials Initiative Integrated strategy (3 pillars) 1. Fair and sustainable supply f raw materials frm glbal markets 2. Fstering sustainable supply f primary raw materials within the EU 3. Bsting resurce efficiency and prmting recycling: Supprt research and pilt actins; Carry ut an ex-pst evaluatin f the EU waste acquis; Analyse the feasibility f develping ec-design instruments t fster mre efficient use f raw materials (Ec-design Directive); Develp new initiatives t imprve the cmpetitiveness f EU recycling industries; Prmte a level-playing field fr recycling by enfrcing the Envirnmentally Sund Management principle f the Waste Shipment Regulatin; 4 2

3 Eurpean Innvatin Partnership n Raw Materials (1) Stakehlder platfrm: industry, public services, academia and NGOs New apprach t EU research and innvatin: streamlining effrts and accelerating market take-up f innvatins Strategic Implementatin Plan: fcus n technlgy, nn-technlgy and internatinal aspects 5 Eurpean Innvatin Partnership n Raw Materials (2) Strategic Implementatin Plan I. Technlgy Pillar IA I.A Raw materials research and innvatin crdinatin I.B Technlgies fr primary and secndary raw materials' prductin I.C Substitutin f raw materials II. Nn-Technlgy Plicy Pillar II.A Imprving Eurpe's raw materials framewrk cnditins II.B Imprving Eurpe's waste management framewrk cnditins and excellence II.C Knwledge, skills and raw materials flws III. Internatinal Cperatin Pillar III.1 Technlgy III.2 Glbal Raw Materials Gvernance and Dialgues III.3 Health, Safety and Envirnment III.4 Skills, Educatin and Knwledge III.5 Investment activities 6 3

4 Eurpean Innvatin Partnership n Raw Materials (3) Imprving Eurpe's waste management framewrk cnditins and excellence Prduct design fr ptimised i use f (critical) raw materials and increased quality f recycling => Actins: Ec-design Directive: increase the emphasis n raw materials and materials efficiency EU-wide research n prduct life extensin strategies and develpment f sustainable circular business mdels Increase the knwledge n the presence f Critical Raw Materials (CRM) in cmplex prducts (incl. envirnmental prduct declaratin) Optimised waste flws fr increased recycling => Actins: Qualitative targets Landfill ban fr recyclable waste and incineratin ban fr certain waste Waste cllectin systems and Extended Prducer Respnsibility (EPR) Schemes Innvative appraches and infrastructures fr reuse and recvery f end-f-life cnsumer prducts (i.e. innvative business mdels) 7 Eurpean Innvatin Partnership n Raw Materials (4) Planning Raw Materials Cmmitments "Gap analysis": mapping f effrts and initiatives with regard t the actins in the SIP's Strategic Implementatin Plan Raw Materials Screbard: macr-indicatrs n the challenges related t raw materials 8 4

5 Hrizn 2020 Three prgramme sectins: 1. Excellent science ( 24 billin) 2. Industrial leadership ( 17 billin) 3. Scietal challenges ( 31 billin) Scietal Challenge 5: Climate actin, resurce efficiency i and raw materials ( billin) 9 Hrizn 2020 Scietal Challenge 5: 'Climate actin, envirnment, resurce efficiency and raw materials' Waste: A Resurce t Recycle, Reuse and Recver Raw Materials WASTE /2015: Twards near-zer waste at Eurpean and glbal level WASTE : Prmting ec-innvative waste management and preventin as part f sustainable urban develpment Grwing a Lw Carbn, Resurce Efficient Ecnmy with a Sustainable Supply f Raw Materials SC /2015: New slutins fr sustainable prductin f raw materials SC /2015: Innvative and sustainable slutins leading t substitutin f raw materials SC /2015: Crdinating and supprting raw materials research and innvatin SC /2015: Bsting the ptential f small businesses fr ec-innvatin and a sustainable supply f raw materials 10 5
