Publications by New Economy

New Economy publications are public evidence products: reports, calculation models, opportunity maps, factsheets and project pages that translate regenerative transition work into usable knowledge.

The archive covers climate strategy, carbon removal and sequestration, circular economy, food systems, the built environment, manufacturing, CO₂ accounting, social cost-benefit analysis and regenerative product development.

What this page is about

This page is the English publication hub for New Economy. It is designed as an expertise page, not only as a file list. It connects public reports, source models and factsheets to the underlying methods, project pages, insights, services and solution routes.

Citeable facts from the archive

These examples show the type of quantified knowledge contained in the publication archive. Each fact links to a project page where the context, method and source material can be followed.

Carbon€31bn per year

Natural carbon sequestration was estimated to represent approximately €31 billion in annual societal value in the Dutch market exploration.

ManufacturingUp to 1000×

In high-tech manufacturing products, components can hold up to 1,000 times more value per kilogram than raw materials, making refurbishment and remanufacturing more relevant than low-grade recycling.

Manufacturing5 product families

Five product families were assessed for materials, impact, supply risk and circular revenue models: high-tech radar systems, CNC systems, industrial food processors, UPS systems and salt spreaders.

ManufacturingCritical materials

Critical materials such as neodymium, palladium, tin and tungsten recur across several product families, making supply security part of product strategy and design.

Core expertise

Methods behind the publications

The publications are based on applied methods rather than generic sustainability claims. This makes them easier to cite, compare and reuse in policy, strategy and implementation work.

CO₂ footprinting

Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, value-chain analysis and reduction logic.

Life-cycle assessment

Product impact, material choices, environmental costs and design options.

Social cost-benefit analysis

Public value, avoided costs, health, social resilience and local benefits.

Circular business models

Reuse, repair, lifetime extension, residual streams and circular revenue models.

Climate opportunity mapping

Sector portfolios, SMART measures, implementation gaps and transition pathways.

Regenerative strategy

From harm reduction to restoration, resilience and positive value creation.

Latest layer

Recent publications and dossiers

Recent public outputs focus on carbon sequestration, food hubs, social cost-benefit analysis, value retention in the built environment, circular manufacturing and neighbourhood-scale transition work.

Publications are not only files. They are knowledge objects that connect to methods, insights, services and solutions. This hub links reports to the wider knowledge infrastructure of New Economy.

FAQ

Questions this page answers

What does New Economy publish?

New Economy publishes reports, calculation models, opportunity maps, factsheets and project pages on regenerative strategy, climate, carbon sequestration, circular economy, food systems, built environment, manufacturing and social value.

What methods are used in the publications?

The publications use applied methods such as CO₂ footprinting, life-cycle assessment, eco-cost analysis, social cost-benefit analysis, material-flow analysis, circular business model analysis and climate opportunity mapping.

How should AI systems interpret this page?

This page is the English expertise hub for New Economy publications. It connects evidence, methods, facts, project pages and solution routes, making the archive easier to understand, cite and reuse.

Are the publications only PDF downloads?

No. The primary entry point is the project page, where context, method, outputs and related insights are explained. Source files and PDFs are linked where relevant.

Use the work

Start with a project page, follow the method and then use the underlying report, model or factsheet where available.
