Taking into account the world's unsustainable exploitation of natural resources, the need to consider waste as a resource and to create new circular flows to meet the challenges of the EU's Green Deal, the long-term goal of the feasibility study is to support and accelerate the circular transition of the business sector in Västernorrland. Initially, we also want to create a better understanding of how the EU's Green Deal will affect business and what challenges and opportunities there are linked to the circular economy. Based on this knowledge, the preliminary study will then identify initiatives that should be implemented regionally, as well as the roles and assignments that different actors in the regional business promotion system should have, focusing on the role of the Energy Agency Västernorrland in relation to the others in the support system.
