Competences Services: Expertise for Circular Progress

In our previous post, we introduced Renable's overall service offering and our three main pillars: Competences, SaaS++ and Sourcing. Over the coming weeks, we will take a closer look at each of these. Today, we start with our Competence Services, the expertise that underpins much of what we do.

At Renable, our competence services are grounded in science, regulation and practice. We help clients with advanced assessments, competence building, reporting and advisory services, all tailored to real-world circular economy challenges.

Our Competence Services include:

Detailed Life Cycle Assessments (LCA)
We conduct high-resolution, activity-based LCAs, not spend-based shortcuts. Our method captures the actual environmental impact at each stage of an asset or material's life, tied to real activities, equipment and properly sourced data. The result is LCA output that is accurate, defensible and directly usable in decision-making, reporting and strategy.

Circular Economy Competence Building
We design training and advisory programmes that build awareness and concrete capability in circular design, resource loops and value chain engagement. This ranges from introductory sessions for broader teams to deep-dive work with specialist functions and management, always with a focus on practical application rather than abstract theory.

Cradle-to-Cradle Tracking and Attribution
Using scientifically validated databases and activity-based models, we provide robust material traceability and ESG factor attribution from end-of-life back into new use. This allows companies to document where circular materials come from, how they move through the value chain and what environmental profile they carry at each step.

ESG Data Provisioning
We supply defensible, granular data for corporate ESG reporting, aligned with key frameworks and traceable to real operations. Rather than generic averages, we work with activity-based data tied to specific processes, locations and assets, enabling clients to strengthen their ESG disclosures and internal decision-support.

Decommissioning Strategy and Execution
We support decommissioning of assets from both a strategic and operational perspective, from technical planning and regulatory navigation through commercially innovative approaches, to hands-on project management. This is particularly relevant in heavy industry and maritime contexts, where circular outcomes, safety and compliance must all be balanced.

WEEE Compliance and Strategy
We provide expert guidance on Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) compliance across EU and national systems. This includes strategy, documentation, data and practical approaches to managing WEEE flows in a way that meets regulatory requirements and supports circular objectives.

As with our broader services, work carried out for small and medium-sized companies will often be eligible for public support schemes. We advise on this as part of our engagements.

Taken together, these competence services help our clients move from circular ambitions to concrete, well-documented progress, with decisions based on solid data, regulatory insight and real operational understanding.

We will soon return with more detail on our SaaS++ solutions and our circular sourcing services. In the meantime, you can access our overall service offering here
