2. 1. Life Cycle Costing : Supporting companies towards a circular economy

   Author : Marianna Lena Kambanou; Mattias Lindahl; Tomohiko Sakao; Giuditta Pezzotta; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; life cycle costing; total cost of ownership; circular strategies; products as a service; through life costing; life cycle management; circular economy;

   Abstract : Increased consumption has resulted in the depletion of non-renewable resources and an explosion in waste. A circular economy proposes to sustain economic growth but decouple it from resource consumption by keeping products and materials in the economy. READ MORE
