Preparation of a real laboratory that will enable numerous actors to research the actual benefits of urban data or their AI-supported analysis for a climate-neutral city. By clarifying strategic, technical and legal aspects as well as potential analyses along relevant use cases, the framework conditions for an open, multi-year research environment (real laboratory) in Vienna are set in motion.
GeoHub - Sustainable heat management of near-surface geothermal energy in urban environments
Innovative approaches to streamline geothermal projects from planning to operation, ensuring they are climate-neutral, resource-efficient, and economically viable.
GreenFDT – Green Façade Digital Twin
In an interdisciplinary framework, the possibilities for optimizing the rear ventilation distance of façade greening elements and their potential impact on indoor and urban climate are being investigated. The precise and comprehensive investigation of these relationships is made possible by the extensive deployment of sensors and measuring tools and furthermore the development and integration of a digital twin in a BIM model.
GreenGEO - Data-based integration of climate change adaptation measures into spatial planning
Green and blue infrastructure (GBI) is a key instrument in the fight against climate change. Nevertheless, deciding where and in what form it should be used most effectively remains a challenge in spatial planning practice. The development of a digital model that links location-specific climate risk data with suitable GBI measure proposals will make this much easier and more objective.
HEATbucket - Urban underground thermal energy storages to enable energy transition
In urban areas, the heat supply and cooling of buildings is one of the key challenges in the course of the energy transition. With HEATbucket, a structural engineering solution is to be investigated for the realisation of underground heat storage in built-up areas. In addition to the technical challenges, the focus is on the general feasibility and the impact on the subsoil and groundwater.
IMPACT – Hybrid hydraulic and electric charging of stratified compact hot water
The IMPACT project is developing an innovative decentralised hot water storage technology for large-volume urban housing. Thanks to a novel, flat design, the system enables highly efficient utilisation of renewable energy sources such as heat pumps and photovoltaics. The aim is to create a cost-efficient, sustainable solution for decarbonising water heating that is optimised using intelligent energy management and machine learning methods.
K3 - Climate-neutral Klagenfurt Clinic
As part of Klagenfurt on Lake Wörthersee's climate neutrality ambitions, the focus is on the development of climate-neutral districts with a wide variety of functions and uses in the city area. In collaboration with the state hospital operating company - KABEG, a climate neutrality roadmap for the Klagenfurt clinic district is being developed with scientific support from JOANNEUM RESEARCH Forschungsgesellschaft mbH.
KLARA Amstetten: Klimaneutralitätsfahrplan Amstetten – Roadmap to Action
For the first time, goals for a climate-neutral Amstetten are defined and the necessary climate protection and climate change adaptation measures are developed and fields of action are prioritised.
KLIMADEMO VIS-A-VIS: Participatory realization of a climate-neutral demonstration building Vis-à-Vis
Participatory development of a pilot project at the interface between climate neutrality, affordability and multi-storey wooden housing based on well-founded decision-making bases in terms of renewable materials and renewable energies. The result is a multipliable carbon neutral building and the dissemination of carbon neutrality know-how to a larger audience.
Kapfenberg_2_zeroCO2 - Creation of the 2040 climate neutrality plan for the industrial city of Kapfenberg
For the industrial city of Kapfenberg in Upper Styria with over 22,000 residents, achieving climate neutrality is both challenging and necessary. The companies of Kapfenberg have been heavily reliant on fossil fuels. Implementation of climate protection measures is essential for their future viability and for maintaining a high quality of life for the population of Kapfenberg.
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.
KlimaQuartierNikolai
The project aims to improve sustainable energy supply and energy efficiency for the planned NikolaiQuartier in Villach by utilizing waste heat and local energy sources. An innovative energy concept, which also includes the regional hospital, is being developed. Active involvement of residents and stakeholders is key to securing acceptance of the eco-friendly neighbourhood.
Klimapionierstadt Wien
Systemic learning, accelerated knowledge transfer and new capacities as well as innovative impulses and the more ambitious design of ongoing activities will help to align the processes of the Vienna City Administration in a way that best supports the achievement of climate neutrality and resilience by 2040. The Klimapionierstadt Wien Partnership also contributes to putting selected pilot neighbourhoods on the path to climate neutrality by 2030.
Lahof/Lanserhofsiedlung - Path to Zero CO2 - climate-neutral demonstration building in relation to the neighbourhood
The aim is to develop and implement an innovative, climate-neutral neighbourhood concept with various sustainable energy and building technology components. A central element here is the climate-neutral demonstration building in timber construction. This building is equipped with thermal component activation in solid wood and combines innovative energy concepts such as wastewater heat recovery, large photovoltaic systems and a hydrogen system for seasonal energy storage.
LehB:KlimafitDemo2+1 - Living in existing buildings today: climate-friendly renovations in existing buildings within the framework of the common good housing law
The LehB:KlimafitDemo2+1 project examines innovative renovation solutions for the climate-fit modernization of non-profit residential buildings without placing a financial burden on tenants. By implementing a flexible modular system and involving the residents, economic, technical and social aspects of the renovation are optimized. The aim is to make an important contribution to achieving climate neutrality by 2040 through adapted measures and comprehensive monitoring.
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.
LeiSan - Flagship Project: Renovation of the Komposch-Ebene Residential Quarter in Bad Eisenkappel, Carinthia
Exploration for an existing quarter in Bad Eisenkappel with the goal of renovating the building stock, involving the residents, the open space, mobility, and local generation of renewable energy. The result should demonstrate the economic feasibility of a holistic concept for the quarter and serve as a basis for a demonstration project.
LenA circular houses - Demonstration of the circular architecture design process for circular andreuse building based on the lighthouse project LenA
The main objective is to research and demonstrate the positive climate impact of reuse in the construction industry. Through this (re)use of components, products and material groups, large shares of the emissions generated by the construction industry can be avoided and contribute to the targeted climate neutrality. Another aspect is to design the connections of the components in such a way that they can be deconstructed and reused.
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.
