Growing Corporate Adoption of ESG and Sustainability Goals

Growing corporate adoption of ESG and sustainability goals is a strong driver of the circular economy market, as businesses increasingly integrate environmental performance into their core strategies. In 2024, Willis Towers Watson PLC, reported a continued rise in the inclusion of ESG measures in executive incentive plans, highlighting how sustainability has become a top priority for leadership across global markets.

Notably, in Asia-Pacific, the share of leading companies incorporating ESG metrics surged by 14 percentage points, from 63% in 2022 to 77% in 2023, showing a rapid shift toward accountability. This growing focus encourages investments in circular solutions such as recycling, renewable materials, and product life extension.

By linking ESG compliance with executive performance, companies are actively driving the transition toward sustainable business models. As more organizations adopt similar frameworks, the demand for circular economy practices will continue to accelerate worldwide. The circular economy market is gaining momentum as sustainability and ESG goals reshape business priorities. Rising adoption across industries ensures long-term growth, resource efficiency, and reduced environmental impact.

Technological Challenges in Recycling Complex Materials

Technological challenges in recycling complex materials act as a major restraint for the circular economy market. Many products, such as electronics, multi-layered packaging, and composite materials, are difficult to dismantle and recycle efficiently. The lack of advanced sorting and separation technologies often leads to low recovery rates and high processing costs. For instance, recovering rare earth metals from e-waste remains both technically challenging and economically unviable at scale. These limitations slow down adoption and hinder the full potential of circular economy practices.

Development of Circular Packaging Solutions Across Industries

The development of circular packaging solutions across industries presents a significant opportunity for the circular economy market, as businesses look to reduce single-use plastics and shift toward sustainable alternatives. Companies are increasingly adopting recyclable, reusable, and biodegradable packaging to meet both regulatory requirements and consumer demand for eco-friendly products.

 For instance, major FMCG players like Unilever and Nestlé are introducing refillable and reusable packaging models, cutting down waste generation. In the retail sector, brands such as IKEA are exploring compostable and paper-based materials to replace plastics. Similarly, the e-commerce industry is investing in returnable packaging systems to minimize packaging waste.

Governments are also supporting this transition by banning single-use plastics and promoting extended producer responsibility (EPR) programs. The food and beverage industry is another key adopter, with innovations in plant-based and recyclable packaging materials. These shifts create a robust demand for circular packaging technologies and solutions across industries.

Automotive Industry Driving Circular Economy Through Recycling and Secondary Material Adoption

The automotive segment is accelerating the circular economy by setting ambitious recycling and sustainability goals. DENSO has created a Circular Economy Development Division with the mission of achieving 90% vehicle weight recycling, focusing on turning end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) into raw materials for new cars, thus enabling a true Car-to-Car circular economy.

Similarly, the BMW Group has made circularity a strategic pillar of its product development, with an emphasis on increasing the use of secondary materials. This approach not only helps the company reduce its dependence on critical raw materials but also lowers CO₂e emissions across the supply chain.

By cutting reliance on primary raw material extraction and processing, BMW is addressing both environmental and social challenges. These efforts reflect how leading automakers are embedding circularity into design and production. Such initiatives are creating a closed-loop system in the automotive sector. Collectively, these strategies highlight the industry’s role as a powerful driver of the circular economy market.

North America Accelerating Circular Economy Through Innovation and Industry Collaboration

North America is driving the circular economy market by advancing large-scale initiatives, policies, and innovations that promote sustainability and resource efficiency. In the U.S., the Plastics Pact reported notable progress, with sustainable packaging adoption increasing from 36% in 2021 to 50% in 2023, alongside a rise in post-consumer recycled content to 11%.

Companies are also embracing innovation, with Eastman opening the world’s largest molecular recycling facility in Tennessee to process hard-to-recycle plastics. Consumer goods firms like Kraft Heinz are shifting toward recyclable paperboard packaging, eliminating nearly three million pounds of plastic annually. Regulatory support and corporate ESG commitments further strengthen circular adoption in packaging, automotive, and construction.

The region is also investing heavily in EV battery recycling and secondary material use to reduce reliance on virgin resources. According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, circular models could unlock up to USD 1.5 trillion in climate and economic opportunities in North America. These combined efforts demonstrate how government action, corporate responsibility, and innovation are accelerating the shift to a circular economy.

Magma Power LLC and Researchers At Syracuse University Achieve Historic Milestone: World’s First Successful Drilling Into 2,700°F Molten Lava For Steam Power Generation

“World’s First Successful Drilling into Magma for Steam Power Generation Achieved in Laboratory Demonstration”

SYRACUSE, N.Y., Aug. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Magma Power LLC, a global pioneer in renewable energy technology innovation, in collaboration with Syracuse University researchers, has achieved a groundbreaking milestone: the world’s first successful drilling into magma for steam power generation in a controlled laboratory demonstration, utilizing artificially created magma.

This landmark test, conducted on June 7, 2025 — Magma Day — marks a pivotal moment in revolutionary clean energy technology development, showcasing the immense potential of Magma Power’s patented technologies to revolutionize the global energy landscape.

“On December 17, 1903 the Wright Brothers’ historic flight launched the era of modern aviation. On June 7, 2025 Magma Power, LLC and researchers from Syracuse University launched the era of magma power,” said Levi Conner, CEO of Magma Power LLC.

The test involved a scaled-down system based on Magma Power’s extensive technology portfolio of 31 U.S. and global patents granted and 46 additional US and global patents filed with over 1,000 patent claims total.

The team created ultra-high temperature 1,200°C (2,732°F) molten lava by melting basaltic rocks in a large crucible, simulating natural magma chamber conditions. Using Magma Power’s proprietary wellbore and heat transfer technologies, the team successfully drilled a 17-inch deep, 3-inch diameter borehole into the lab-generated magma and maintained wellbore stability through patented cooling methods that vitrified the liquid magma into solid obsidian-like glass.

“You could clearly see the ‘glass bottle’ that our drill rig and cooling system created in the lava formation, exactly the reaction that we had predicted,” said Conner. “We showed that our drilling and cooling system can safely create a stable open borehole in 1,200°C magma, demonstrating the viability of our technology for future applications in natural magma environments. This open borehole method and ultra-high temperature heat transfer will revolutionize power generation, providing virtually unlimited renewable power similar in heat to coal and nuclear-powered blast furnaces.”

The team successfully produced steam by placing a heat exchanger within the 17-inch borehole, demonstrating practical energy extraction from the extreme temperature environment.

Critically, magma power is 24x7x365 baseload power — providing a far superior renewable power source than intermittent wind and solar. Magma power also requires a far smaller physical footprint than wind and solar and has none of the environmental risks. “You can’t decarbonize the grid with wind and solar. You can with magma power,” said Conner.

“This achievement is a testament to the visionary work of the Magma Power, LLC team and our partners at Syracuse University,” said Conner. “By drilling into and generating steam from magma in this proof-of-concept demonstration, we’ve proven that our technology can tap into the Earth’s most abundant and powerful energy source. This is not just a scientific breakthrough–it’s the beginning of a new era in renewable energy that can power the planet for millennia.”

A Global Vision Grounded in Innovation

Richard McDonald, Chief Strategy Officer of Magma Power LLC, emphasized the broader implications: “Magma Power, LLC has said that magma resources could meet the Earth’s energy needs for thousands of years. With our successful laboratory-scale validation at Syracuse, this is no longer a hypothesis–it’s a reality we’re bringing to life. This test is the first of many steps toward global implementation.”

The successful Syracuse test aligns with Magma Power’s ambitious plans, including a $20 billion project to build one of the world’s largest Al data centers, powered entirely by magma power. With 10 gigawatts of baseload power capacity, this initiative exemplifies how magma power can address the soaring energy demands of emerging technologies while driving decarbonization.

The Future of Magma Power: A Thousand-Year Energy Solution

A 1982 Sandia Labs report stated, “The U.S. magma resource is estimated at 50,000 to 500,000 quads of energy–a 700- to 7,000-year supply at the current U.S. total energy use rate of 75 quads per year.” The report further noted, “Energy can be extracted at attractive rates from magma resources in all petrologic compositions and physical configurations.”

Transformative Impact of Near 1 Cent per kWh Energy

The U.S. Department of Energy said in its 1978-1979 “Magma Energy Research Project, Semiannual Report” that “The immense thermal energy in magma bodies offers a resource so concentrated that, with efficient extraction, the cost of power generation could approach levels far below those of conventional fossil fuels or geothermal systems, potentially dropping to fractions of a cent per kilowatt-hour over time.”

For industries, energy near 1 cent per kWh–compared to current U.S. industrial rates averaging 7-8 cents per kWh–would slash operating costs and catalyze innovation across sectors. The Al sector, projected to demand 10-20% of U.S. electricity by 2030, could expand exponentially without soaring energy bills.

Green industries like hydrogen production and carbon capture could become economically feasible overnight.

At a societal level, ultra-cheap magma power could electrify the developing world and dramatically reduce household energy costs in developed nations, freeing up disposable income and boosting economic growth.

“This test at Syracuse University is a proof of concept that validates our work,” said KC Conner, Founder and Inventor of Magma Power LLC. “We’re not just talking about meeting today’s energy demands–we’re engineering a solution that will sustain civilization for centuries.”

A Call to Action for a Sustainable Future

As Magma Power LLC continues to refine its technologies, the company is inviting governments, industries, and innovators to join the magma energy revolution. Licensing opportunities are available for over 1,000 identified global sites.

“This is more than a technological triumph–it’s a call to rethink how we power our world,” Levi Conner concluded. “With magma power, we have the means to secure a clean, abundant energy future for the next 1,000 years.”
