abstract = {To achieve climate neutrality, synergies between circular
economy and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions must be
strengthened. Previously unused emission reduction
potentials of resource efficiency are to be exploited. Since
all potentially possible emission reduction measures are
linked by interactions, the evaluation of a single measure
in terms of cost efficiency, effectiveness, and compliance
with climate protection targets is very complex and requires
a model-based analysis that takes the entire energy system
into account.This work advances an energy system model for
Germany so that through comprehensive modeling of industrial
processes and implementation of recycling options, the
impact of recycling measures in the context of national
greenhouse gas mitigation strategies can be analyzed.The
scenario evaluation shows that different recycling
strategies have large effects on the German energy system.
Without recycling energy demand in 2050 will increase by
more than 300 TWh and cost of transformation will rise by
$85\%$ compared to a reference scenario, with today's
recycling rates. On the other hand, if maximum recycling
rates can be achieved, costs of transformation can be
reduced by $26\%$ until 2050. Recycling is an essential and
cost-efficient greenhouse gas reduction strategy for future
low-carbon energy system designs.},
