LifeLine2050: Methods and tools for Optimal Utilization of Resources in Built Environments towards Climate Neutral Economies by 2050

LIFELINE-2050

Optimal Utilization of Resources towards Neutral Climate Built Environments in Europe by 2030-2050.

LIFELINE-2050 will work together as a multidisciplinary team across six departments at the Faculty of Engineering at NTNU addressing various type of resources including material, water, spaces, energy, ICT, as well as human. 

The aim of LIFELINE-2050 is to optimize the utilization of our limited resources in synergetic way during the life cycle (i.e., the design, construction, operation, and demolish phases) of built environments in the line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): 3 (Healthy lives and well-being), 11 (Sustainable cities and communities), 12 (Responsible consumption and production), and 17 (Partnerships for the goals). 

The main objective of the project LIFELINE-2050 is to develop a holistic assessment framework, digital optimization toolbox (including number of sub-digital twins), and education-innovation hub for achieving resource-effective built environments (e.g., university campuses, district areas) where complex resource-intensive sociotechnical systems need to be holistically optimized.
