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.
Vision4Voitsberg - Climate neutrality plan 2040 for the municipality of Voitsberg

Tulln Climate Neutral City 2040 (Tulln2040)
The core of the project is the development of a systemic strategy at a city-wide level that shows how the city of Tulln will achieve climate neutrality by 2040.
Wiener Neustadt Climate neutral
Wiener Neustadt as a pioneering city, is making a conscious and ambitious transition towards climate neutrality. This complex transformation requires different measures. The measures shall both be developed in-house or developed by others and transferred to Wiener Neustadt. The effect of the entire bundle of measures from the different areas (e.g. governance, implementation districts, learning environment or energy, mobility, buildings, etc.) is subject to fact-based climate monitoring.
Climate neutral Wiener Neustadt 2040
Wiener Neustadt wants to develop its own vision and implementation strategy for climate neutrality by 2040 and develop it in four steps.
Weiz 2040 climate strategy - master plan: “Weiz lives climate protection!”
Due to the increasing threat posed by climate change and the responsibility for sustainable development, the municipality of Weiz has been working for years to implement measures to reduce these threats.
Zwettl climate neutrality roadmap
In view of current developments, the municipality of Zwettl has decided to take action with the ambitious goal of being climate-neutral by 2035.
Tariffs4all - Participation of the citizens from Bruck in the energy transition for all
The project responds to the challenges of participation in the energy transition in the municipality of Bruck/Mur by exploring the possibilities of Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), Peer to Peer Trading (P2P Trading) and virtual metering points for generation plants be developed and implemented as a basis for new tariff/financing models.
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.
KliB40-Climate Compass: Climate-neutral Bregenz 2040, climate compass for the structured participation of stakeholders and the citizens
The "KliB40 Climate Compass" supports Bregenz on its path to climate neutrality by 2040 through transparent development, selection, and monitoring of measures. It facilitates the coordination of climate protection activities and actively involves stakeholders. By evaluating existing software solutions, the project ensures optimal digital support for planning and implementing the city's climate strategy.
SAFE - Creating a safe school environment together
Tactical urbanism for the temporary redesign of school surroundings to reorganize school mobility in a participatory process. The resulting catalogue of measures will serve as a blueprint for an implementation at other schools in Austria.
Abwärme_4_Kapfenberg - 100 % industrielle Abwärmeauskopplung Kapfenberg
The project aims to explore the feasibility of maximizing industrial waste heat extraction into the district heating system of the municipality of Kapfenberg to foster the defossilization path.
Heat islands Feldbach - Synergetic measures against overheating and heavy rain in preparation for an R&D&I project in Feldbach
Analysis and evaluation of the effects and cost-benefit ratios of synergetic measures with regard to overheating and heavy rain in cities. Based on this, an implementation plan will be developed for a subsequent demonstration in Feldbach, which can be used in many similar cities.
PDCA4Future - Feasibility Study for a Climate-Resilient Urban District in Bruck an der Mur through a New Planning and Financing Approach
Using the Hannes-Bammer-Sports Hall as a case study, the PDCA4Future feasibility project in Bruck an der Mur aims to develop an innovative planning and assessment tool. This involves creating renovation and financing models that align climate neutrality goals with sustainable urban planning. The objective is a fact-based and replicable investment decision (renovation vs. new construction).
QualitySysVillab - Protecting sustainable qualities in neighbourhood developments through process control and new digital methods
Development of a process concept to bring sustainable qualities in neighbourhood development from the intention and announcement level to the built reality. The process is supported by digital methods of energy and structural design and evaluated in the context of a case study.
Climate Pioneer Districts Graz (KPQ Graz): Preparation of the climate-neutral districts ÖBB Eastern Railway Station and Smart City North-West
The Climate Pioneer Districts Graz (KPQ Graz) project is preparing the development of the districts "ÖBB Eastern Railway Station" and "Smart City North-West" in Graz towards climate neutrality. Based on the lessons learned of the evaluation of the already realised district "Smart City Graz", an innovative district concept is being created for the infrastructure topics of energy, mobility, green/open space and social sustainability. The central goal of the exploration is the subsequent realization of at least one of the two pilot quarters.
NUCLEUS - Sustainable Urban Clusters for Climate-Neutral, Efficient, and Eco-Friendly Urban Development
The exploratory project NUCLEUS examines how Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) can serve as catalysts for positive urban developments. The climate pioneer district Tagger Areal in Graz serves as a case study. The project aims to identify technical and regulatory challenges and develop future-proof energy concepts to enable the exchange of electricity, heat, and cooling with surrounding industrial enterprises.
Optimization in Existing Structures - Implementation Concept for Energy Optimization in the Existing District of Nofels in Feldkirch
The project aims to optimize energy use in the district through savings, densification, retrofitting, and energy storage. Additionally, climate-adapted open spaces are intended to enhance quality of life and resilience. The results will be scaled up to the entire city and make a significant contribution to achieving climate neutrality.
