This project, uniting partners from Norway and Sweden, aims to develop a scalable model for circular claims, especially for electric vehicles (EVs), based on traceability, quality, and economic viability.
Challenges include an underdeveloped reuse system, rising demand for critical raw materials due to EV growth, skills shortages in repair, and misaligned incentives among insurers, dismantlers, and repairers. Addressing these issues requires common standards and clear economic analysis, ensuring all value chain actors benefit.
Key activities:
- Map current reuse practices and challenges
- Identify innovation needs and circular business models
- Explore risk, liability, and quality demands
- Design a service ecosystem for circular claims
- Build a Nordic consortium for a future full-scale initiative
The goal is to integrate reused parts into insurance services reliably, setting a model for other critical material sectors like electronics and machinery.
