Building the Future Together: the NEB:werk Model Quarter Payerbach in the Semmering World Heritage Region
The NEB:werk Payerbach project transforms the central village square of Payerbach in the UNESCO Semmering World Heritage Region into a climate-resilient, community-driven model quarter aligned with the principles of the New European Bauhaus. By combining adaptive reuse, regional craftsmanship, sustainable energy concepts and participatory planning, the project creates a future-oriented place for living, working, culture and social interaction. NEB:werk treats built heritage as a resource and develops transferable models for sustainable rural transformation.
Climate neutrality roadmaps for pioneering small towns: Mödling 2040
As an e5 municipality, the municipality of Mödling has been dealing with topics such as energy efficiency and renewable energies for years and has already implemented many projects on these topics. However, climate neutrality has so far only been addressed marginally and there is a lack of strategic orientation in climate policy.
Climate strategy for the Leibnitz city region 2040
Leibnitz has defined and adopted clear climate policy targets up to 2040 in its energy strategy. A further decisive step towards these goals was taken on 6 February 2024, when the municipal council unanimously approved the work on the "Climate Strategy City Region Leibnitz 2040" and participation in the "Mission Climate Neutral City".
Leonding on the Path to Climate Neutrality - Climate Neutrality Roadmap Leonding
Building on existing concepts and strategies such as the Leonding Climate Strategy, the Climate Balance, the Mobility Concept, and the KEM Implementation Strategy, a comprehensive climate neutrality roadmap or vision for a climate-neutral Leonding by 2040 will be developed with the involvement of various stakeholders from politics, administration, business, and civil society.
Climate-School-Life - Preparation of the climate-neutral educational campus in Gratwein-Straßengel
The project aims to start the transformation process of the educational campus of the market town of Gratwein-Straßengel into climate-neutrality. The need for the expansion and modernisation of the elementary school forms the central part of this development. The project provides an integrated district concept for the four central infrastructure topics of the project: urban development, architecture, mobility and energy. Participation processes of the population and innovative financing models are further components of the exploration.
Vision4Voitsberg - Climate neutrality plan 2040 for the municipality of Voitsberg
Voitsberg aims to support the achievement of national climate goals by developing a tailored roadmap that builds on existing projects and targets climate neutrality by 2040. This roadmap will be created in close collaboration with the city administration, key interest groups, and decision-makers from politics and business.
EnerPHit-for-2040 - EnerPHit for a climate-resilient St. Johann
St. Johann wants to set an example for other municipalities by developing a climate roadmap with feasible and financially viable measures.
KlimaP Stockerau
The municipality of Stockerau, with a population of around 17,000, is the largest town in the Weinviertel region, located approximately 25 km north-west of Vienna. It is a school town, a transport hub and a centre of attraction for industrial and commercial enterprises. The city has been actively involved in climate change adaptation for over 30 years.
Villach KlimaFit - Municipal Transformation Process to Achieve Climate Neutrality in Villach
The strategic framework for achieving climate neutrality has been decided in Villach and the city itself can already point to good results in its own sphere of action (buildings, photovoltaics). However, the lack of own energy and mobility operations, the type and scope of construction/investment projects (third-party projects) and the limited scope for action in strategic development topics (little land owned by the city of Villach) require the adaptation (transformation) of municipal instruments in order to implement climate neutrality holistically.
Climate Plan Spittal - Development of a climate neutrality roadmap for the city of Spittal an der Drau
The City of Spittal/Drau is already addressing the challenges of the future in many areas and through numerous initiatives (e.g. as part of a KEM and KLAR region, as an e5 municipality, with the adoption of a climate and energy mission statement in 2024, etc.). The city aims to maintain the quality of life both locally and regionally, and to continue ensuring high-quality urban living, working, and economic spaces. It recognizes that achieving this requires short-, medium- and long-term strategies across all climate-relevant sectors.
STPionier - St. Pölten: From industrial city to climate pioneer city
Until the year 2022, the city of St. Pölten did not have a strategy or concept that dealt decisively with the climate crisis. One of the reasons for this was the lack of a responsible department in the St. Pölten administration. With the pioneer city process, a staff unit has now been established that takes on climate agendas and introduces and promotes them in municipal processes and projects.
City – Country – Climate: Four districts, one joint roadmap for a climate-neutral Gratwein-Straßengel
The aim is to initiate a structured and effective path towards climate neutrality 2035+ in the market town. In the context of the project, climate neutrality includes the topics of neighbourhoods and buildings, mobility and energy.
Altmünster 2040
The municipality of Altmuenster, one of the first Climate Alliance municipalities in Upper Austria and a long-standing member of the Climate and Energy Model Region Traunsteinregion (KEM), wants to develop a municipal climate strategy with clear options for action.
Linz with Ambitio3xn - Linz with ambition for climate neutrality: governance, infrastructure and climate-social neighborhood Franckviertel
The project "Linz with Ambitio3xn" supports the city of Linz in becoming climate neutral by 2040. Contributing to this ambitious goal requires aligning urban planning instruments with urban climate mitigation and decarbonizing existing gas infrastructure in the Franckviertel neighborhood. In the project, standards for net zero non-profit housing will be tested in practice and shared learning are promoted.
Climate neutrality roadmap Klosterneuburg
Klosterneuburg is located between the Vienna Woods and the Danube floodplains, a city with a high proportion of green and recreational space while being close to Vienna. This location makes Klosterneuburg an interesting case study for researching climate neutrality – particularly in the areas of CO₂-emissions-free commuter transport, climate-friendly services, and CO₂ sequestration through forestry.
Climate turnaround Bruck - Climate neutrality roadmap 2040 for the Bruck an der Mur conurbation to mitigate conflicts of use
The city sees the creation of a climate neutrality roadmap by 2040 as an opportunity to resolve existing conflicts of use. The implementation plan is to be developed in a participatory manner with short, medium and long-term solutions.
CO2 free Deutschlandsberg 2040
The city of Deutschlandsberg has set itself the goal of becoming climate-neutral by 2040 and is developing a climate neutrality roadmap to ensure climate-resilient urban development. This plan is also intended to combine the expected population growth, due to the commissioning of the Koralm railway at the end of 2025, while maintaining a high quality of life.
ClimateCare - Green rating for climate-vulnerable groups in urban areas
The project utilizes climate and satellite data to analyse the relationship between urban green spaces and the well-being of heat-vulnerable populations in ten Austrian pioneer cities. The project delivers data-backed recommendations and investment rankings for greening measures, such as rooftop and façade gardens, to maximize health benefits and cost-effectiveness.
NEB Resources - Potentials in the Existing Urban Fabric for a Socially Inclusive, Circular and Climate-Just Matzleinsdorf
NEB Resources collaborates with residents to develop a feasible and politically supported transformation concept for a socially inclusive, circular, and climate-friendly Matzleinsdorf neighborhood in Vienna's Margareten district. Co-research, temporary interventions, and prototypes activate material and immaterial resources, thereby transforming physical spaces and social relationships.
