By Professor Fiona Charnley, Professor of circular innovation at the University of Exeter and researcher at the ReMake Value Retention Centre (RVRC). The UK’s renewable energy transition is often judged by the number of projects delivered, yet its long term success hinges on something far less visible - whether the technologies we deploy are capable of retaining value throughout their life cycles, or whether they shed it, ultimately adding to the waste burden we are trying to reduce.
