The sustainable production of energy and renewable resources through resource-efficient processes and the development of a closed-cycle economy is an important aspect of adapting to climate change. Already today, the concept of a sustainable bioeconomy offers many solutions for improving climate protection.

Its storage capability is what makes bioenergy such an important part of the future energy mix. It is an indispensable component that can compete with energy sources such as wind and solar energy that are not always available. The sustainable bioeconomy offers solutions for developing integrated production processes for sustainable production.

The start-up company re.solution from Aachen, founded in 2023, was awarded several start-up prizes in the first half of 2024. The technology that re.solution uses for the environmentally friendly recycling of textiles was developed as part of BioSC projects and was further developed in BioökonomieREVIER innovation labs and other projects before it was founded.
