reSOILution - Utilization of excavated soil for the production of earthen building materials

Excavated materials generate large amounts of waste and represent a key lever for resource conservation and waste reduction in the construction sector. The reSOILution project explores how excavated soil can be circularly processed into earthen building materials to reduce CO₂ emissions and promote a sustainable construction industry.

scaleFLEX - Scalable method for optimizing the energy flexibility of districts

Development of a decentrally organized automation method for improving the demand-side flexibility options of buildings and districts. The utilized data-driven algorithm promise high scalability and therefore low installation and operating costs. The developed method will be validated using different building types (high-tech office buildings, low-tech office buildings, residential buildings).

see-it - Camera based, user centric daylight control system for optimized working conditions

In the project technologies in the field of building construction and building automation are being researched for quality and performance improvements in the workplace. The aim is to individualize the control of sun protection to the people who need to be protected from glare and overheating and hope to see through.

sustAIn4Build - AI competence for sustainable building management in climate neutral cities

The objective of the project sustAIn4Build is to increase energy efficiency and sustainability in the building sector by using artificial intelligence (AI). Industry-specific training programs support Austrian companies to develop a workflow for integrating AI technologies into their processes, enabling them to develop resource-saving, cost-effective and sustainable solutions. This strengthens their competitive­ness and contributes to the achievement of European decarbonisation goals.

vilFIT – Villach Fit 4 Urban Mission

In this project, measures, strategies and the necessary capacity building for achieving climate neutrality in the city of Villach will be advanced. The focus is on social and structural innovations (participation processes, development of pilot initiatives, public relations, etc.) as well as the definition of networks and structures or controlling and monitoring instruments.

ÖKO-OPT-QUART - Economically optimized control and operating mode of complex energy networks of future city districts

In the project ÖKO-OPT-QUART energy-based, economic and control-orientated models will be developed in order to simulate the operating mode of complex, sustainable energy networks in city districts. For an exemplary configuration these models will be combined to an overall model which allows a realistic economic comparison of different control strategies. The final goal of the project is the development of a method for the systematic design of cost-optimized, predictive control strategies for complex energy networks in city districts.
