The report is carried out by Viegand Maagøe A/S for the Nordic Working Group for Circular Economy (NCE), Nordic Council of Ministers. The objective is to support the development of the European Union’s product policy, more specifically the increased focus on environmental aspects and circular economy in the EU Ecodesign Directive. The project focuses on possible regulation of scarce, environmentally relevant, and critical raw materials. The study identifies current regulations, legislations, and standards and defines and recommends relevant policy options. The content of the study is based on input from stakeholders in combination with literature reviews. The outcome is an overview of potential policy measures that could be implemented within the European ecodesign framework, and other potential policy measures especially measures related to green public procurement.
