Collaborative Innovation

The ambition is to contribute significantly to the 2030 and 2050 climate goals. To realize this ambition, it is necessary to strengthen the cross‑mission activities that are most effectively addressed through an interdisciplinary, cross‑mission project collaboration.

There are four themes that focus on roadmap overlaps and shared challenges common to all four partnerships. The themes are:

1) New and innovative regulatory solutions

Projects granted under Theme 1 should provide recommendations for new, innovative regulatory solutions to change the overall policy landscape across the 4 IMs to support implementation of novel solutions.

2) Green transition and land use

Projects granted under Theme 2 should provide insights and solutions that strengthen sustainable land use planning across the four IMs, supporting a coordinated and holistic green transition.

3) Engaged citizenship for large‑scale transitions

Projects granted under Theme 3 should develop knowledge and approaches that strengthen citizen engagement across the four IMs, supporting the behavioral and societal changes required for large‑scale transitions.

4) Carbon balance and management

Projects granted under Theme 4 aim to address Denmark’s carbon management needs, considering both human society and the preservation of nature and biodiversity. By optimizing carbon processes across the four IMs, these projects can significantly reduce waste and emissions, thereby directly contributing to climate goals.

Collaborative Innovation Projects

Projects concerning Collaborative Innovation

CAR2MA

TRACE Pool 3.3, In progress

The aim is to develop crosscutting society-wide systems analysis methods, tools, and models allowing for a holistic co-optimization of land use and carbon management across agriculture, forestry, energy, transport, industry, buildings, waste manage-ment, and materials.

LAND4IMPACT

TRACE Pool 3.3, In progress

LAND4IMPACT addresses Denmark’s urgent need for smarter land management in the green transition.

LegiRoad

TRACE Pool 3.3, In Progress

LegiRoad delivers a co-created Policy Roadmap to accelerate the deployment of Power-to-X(PtX), green fuels, and Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) in Denmark.

MOOW

TRACE Pool 3.3, In Progress

The MOOW project aims to develop a model for ‘democratic ownership’ in the green transition in Denmark. The transformation is intended to increase citizen engagement.

ReCycle

TRACE Pool 3.3, In progress

ReCycle targets to demonstrate the technical, economic and area-wise benefits of a biomass “ReCycle” infrastructure, which also can ensure a robust Danish energy system and offer seasonal storage.

SUMIT

TRACE Pool 3.3, In progress

SUMIT will develop CO₂ capture and utilization pathways for scalable alternative protein production through integrated microalgae cultivation systems.
