The application of circular economy concepts in infrastructure systems and the energy system can help to increase resource efficiency, reduce environmental impact and promote sustainability. Closing the carbon and mineral cycle in a sustainable way can help to reduce the greenhouse effect and ensure the availability of critical resources for energy production and storage. It is important to integrate these concepts into the planning and operation of infrastructure systems and energy systems at all levels. The importance of research in this area is to improve the efficiency of the various technologies and methods for implementing circular economy, as well as to develop new solutions that promote sustainability.
