DREI x NULL = NULL - Research project on climate-neutral construction in all life cycle phases based on three demonstration buildings
The aim of the F&E project is the realization of three different residential buildings, which are all climate-neutral in the life cycle phases of construction, operation and dismantling. The aim is to create exemplary showcase projects for the future residential construction sector.
LehmKur - Rammed earth walls for multi-storey residential buildings
Research of a lighthouse project consisting of rammed earth-timber exterior wall components with accompanying ecological life cycle analysis, building physics simulations and documentation of the necessary logistical, building law, fire and soundproofing measures.
ModularHeatNet
The aim of the project is to support Ottensheim in phasing out fossil fuels and developing a "climate-neutral" heat supply. As a result, the community will receive a solid decision-making basis based on the technical, economic, organizational, and environmental comparison of the examined heat supply approaches.
Build4Climate - Demonstration building with a climate room concept at the Innovation Quarter Lavanttal in Carinthia
Near the Wörthersee in Carinthia a modern open-space research and office building with flexible use is being built on the site of Lakeside Science & Technology Park GmbH. The innovative building will be implemented as a frontrunner with a 'climate room' concept based on thermal component activation and extensive use of renewable energy sources.
Drain2Energy - Demonstration of a wastewater heat exchanger suitable for renovation in two existing buildings
Drain2Energy demonstrates an innovative in-house wastewater heat exchanger that can also utilize black water from toilets and is particularly suitable for retrofitting existing buildings. The technology is being tested in two demonstration buildings and monitored in real operation. The results provide key insights into the potential of wastewater heat as a renewable heat source and promote the use of this technology in existing and new buildings.
Town Hall District 2040
A preparatory step for a demonstration project that develops a well-founded and integrated planning basis. It aims to interconnect the energy system, buildings, open spaces, and social structures in order to create a climate-resilient and multifunctional urban quarter.
Campus St. Martin - Pioneering project: Church ensembles become climate-friendly,inclusive NEB centres of cohesion
A church building complex is becoming a prototype for combining monument preservation with new types of use. In line with the NEB initiative, the 'Campus St. Martin' is to be developed into a district community centre for informal encounters, culture, social and personal exchange, education and community.
GRAUfürGRÜN-BLAU - Cross-sectoral use of treated greywater for vital urban green spaces and stable groundwater resources
Exploratory project to analyze the potential of using purified grey water from private collection systems for use in public space (irrigation of green infrastructure and infiltration).
SlagShot
Investigation and analysis of the possible admixture of EAF slags as cement replacement in shotcrete applications for filling spandrels. In collaboration with circular economy expert Thomas Romm ZT, promising results are being tested for application at WienerLinien construction sites.
NEB Strobl - NEB-compliant development of the "Fürstenberg – Living Together" neighborhood in the municipality of Strobl
Implementation of the New European Bauhaus (NEB) goals for neighborhood development in rural areas, using the model district "Fürstenberg" in the municipality of Strobl as a case study, and the development of an evaluation tool for NEB neighborhoods.
IK-EnErGie-Knoten - Intermunicipal Electricity and District Heating Network St. Ruprecht–Weiz–Gleisdorf
The IK-EnErGie-Knoten project is developing a sector-coupled, bidirectional energy system for the climate-neutral city of the future. The intelligent networking of existing electricity and heating infrastructures and new cooperation models that transcend property boundaries are creating a scalable energy hub that serves as a model for Austria.
