The Circular Economy Institute

Accelerating the Transition to a Circular Economy

Today, manufacturing accounts for 25% of U.S. energy consumption at a cost to U.S. manufacturers of $150 billion. 

Our experts, together with our partners, are working to reduce that amount and, in the process, enhance U.S. manufacturing competitiveness, increase material efficiency, and strengthen the resiliency of the U.S. supply chain.

Call for Papers!

***DEADLINE EXTENDED***

The REMADE Institute, in partnership with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and with support from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), is pleased to announce a Call for Papers in preparation for the third-annual REMADEâ„  Circular Economy Technology Summit & Conference, which will take place Thursday and Friday, April 10-11, 2025, in Washington, D.C.

The deadline for abstracts for the Call for Papers, which includes a list of suggested topics, has been extended. Abstracts are now due Dec. 6, 2024. Submissions from academic researchers, industry innovators, and others, including international experts, are strongly encouraged.

We look forward to reviewing your submission!
