Research output: Book/ReportCommissioned report

Abstract

Sustainable manufacturing has become a priority. Climate neutrality, circularity, the pandemic and growing geopolitical frictions are all drivers for more resilient value networks. We are now witnessing a clear transition towards sustainable manufacturing and autonomous production. This white paper presents a vision of sustainable manufacturing and provides insights into the transformation towards it. Autonomy is a key enabler in this transition and is discussed in the paper from multiple points of view, including technological autonomy, autonomy of future work, and geopolitical autonomy.
