7 Feasibility & SSbD De-risking Matrix

Draft abstract: this chapter closes Part II with the feasibility layer, extending the EU Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) framework into a scoring matrix, illustrated with two case studies.

SSbD · chemical safety · carbon footprint · TRL risk · de-risking

7.1 6.1 The Safe and Sustainable by Design Paradigm

Extending EU Green Digital Transformation guidance to global value chains, beyond its original EU-internal scope.

7.2 6.2 Case Study 1: Technologies

Patent mapping to identify non-toxic chemical alternatives (e.g., PFAS replacement and Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) in semiconductor manufacturing).

7.3 6.3 Case Study 2: Infrastructure

De-risking next-generation data-center cooling procurement using scientometric foresight.

7.4 6.4 The De-risking Matrix

Three-axis scoring: chemical toxicity x carbon footprint x TRL risk.
Output format designed to feed directly into the DPP schema (チャプター 8).

Bridge to Part III

Part III operationalizes everything above into standards, data-space governance, and trade-policy alignment.
