RESIDUE TO RESOURCE
FREE SPECIALIST ADVICE AND STRENGTHENED COMPETITIVENESS
Are you a small production or service company? Do you have residues, by-products or a large consumption of materials, water or energy? Then you have the opportunity to receive advice and participate in our project “Residue to Resource”.
As a company, you can obtain:
- Free participation, help and instruction, as well as up to DKK 60,000 for external consultancy
- Reduced operating costs and increased competitiveness
- Lower resource consumption and CO2 emissions
- Improved branding and access to new markets, customer segments and suppliers
- A network with other companies in the project
- Discussions with experts in municipalities, DTU (Technical University of Denmark) and Symbiosis Center Denmark
The offer applies to companies in the municipalities of Holbæk, Slagelse, Odsherred, Køge, Kalundborg and Guldborgsund, which are all partners with The Technical University of Denmark in “Residue to Resource – Green business models for SMEs”. Symbiosis Center Denmark is responsible for the project, which is a regional project funded by the EU. A technical development plan for resource optimisation is drawn up for selected companies, along with a business case for restructuring to a greener business model.
If your company is not an SME or is not located in one of the partner municipalities, your company can participate by becoming a part of the partner municipalities’ industrial symbioses and thereby obtain resource savings.
Residue to Resource in three phases:
Phase 1: Screening of qualified companies. Here we screen 100 companies to ensure that we can find 50 that have both the motivation and the potential for energy or resource savings. Your company receives a screening report, and we evaluate whether your company can continue in the project.
Phase 2: Companies get a technical development plan. If your company is among the 50 selected, we offer your company a technical development plan, and you can choose the consultant who you want to draw up the plan — at no cost to you. The consultant examines whether it is possible to optimise your company’s resource consumption and use the residues from the activities of your company.
Phase 3: Green business model and symbiosis. If your company has development potential, you can be one of the 30 companies to which we offer a green business model. You can choose the consultant who is to draw up a green business model tailored to your company — at no cost to you. In addition, 10 companies are offered a green business model for symbiosis collaboration with other companies.

The “Residue to Resource” project has now screened the first round of 26 companies and chosen which ones are to go through. The partners in the project are Symbiosis Center Denmark, The Technical University of Denmark and 6 partner municipalities, which together have developed a screening tool that makes it possible to evaluate companies’ potential, readiness and motivation to enter into a project and the project network. The companies in ”Residue to Resource” are to strengthen their competitiveness through internal resource optimisation, industrial symbiosis and/or green business development.
After the screening, data analysis is carried out, along with a prioritisation of which companies are to go through and be offered a Technical Development Plan. This plan maps out the concrete technical opportunities for the potential for resource optimisation and symbiosis creation. 14 companies have been selected to participate in this process. These are 10 of the companies:
