Research
My research focuses on how circular economy principles can be implemented to address rising costs and environmental impacts in public transportation.
A particular focus of my dissertation is how public procurement can play a central role and how reuse and standardization can increase resource efficiency. For example, can regions reduce their costs through collaboration or by using a common standard for vehicle specifications?
