Decarbonization and sustainability are becoming an essential part of business agendas, and the Netherlands and Denmark are decades ahead of much of the rest of the world in experimentation and implementation of green technologies for energy generation and storage, sustainable production, and efficient management and utilization of “waste” as inputs for other processes.
The Netherlands is home to one of the world’s largest offshore wind farms, and is playing a leading role in the energy transition via LNG to sustainable fuels like hydrogen. It is a global leader in material reuse and food system sustainability. Denmark has a world-class energy system and is a leader in making buildings more energy-efficient. Danish companies are among global market leaders in efficient water and heating applications, and the Kalundborg Symbiosis is a best-in-class industrial partnership that pioneered a circular approach to production using by-products from one company’s process as a feedstock for a neighboring company.
This EC Field Course offered a unique educational experience, where students got to observe and interact with business leaders engaged in decarbonization including renewable energy production and storage, and sustainable production of industrial and consumer goods.
