Overview

This agent-based model evaluates subsidy programs for industrial symbiosis, indicating optimal design impacts effectiveness.

Key Points

  • To assess the effectiveness and efficiency of different subsidy programs for industrial symbiosis through an agent-based model.
  • Developed an agent-based model to simulate industrial symbiosis networks.
  • Assessed two types of subsidies: investments and waste exchange.
  • Analyzed how design impacts policy effectiveness in various industrial contexts.
  • Policy effectiveness mainly depends on design, not just financial support.
  • Efficiency is only relevant when comparing policies of similar effectiveness.
  • Most effective subsidy designs vary by specific industrial context.
