50 green houses - Development and demonstration of a low-tech façade greening system
Development of a cost-efficient all-in façade greening system („Greening-Toolkit“) including a maintenance concept, involving all trades and processes, for a broad (facing roads) implementation on facades in the urban built environment, combined with a process innovation for simplification of all necessary coordination processes.
Anergy2Plus - Demonstration and expansion of an anergy network as part of a holistic energy concept and plus energy quarter
The overall objective of the project is to pursue and demonstrate a holistic approach to the design, construction and ultimately the use of the residential quarter in the context of energy supply. Especially in the area of thermal energy supply, a project with lighthouse character on the way to a plus-energy quarter is to be created by demonstrating the innovative supply concept based on an anergy network.
Beyond - Virtual Reality enabled energy services for smart energy systems
Collaborative R&D project to develop the next generation energy services with the interplay of various technologies: Virtual Reality (VR), machine learning, physical simulation and Internet of Things (IoT) platforms.
Bregenz 2040 climate neutrality roadmap focussing on the electricity and heating transition, mobility and public acceptance
The central goal of the project is to create a consistent, comprehensive, and feasible roadmap to achieve climate neutrality in Bregenz by 2040.
Building as living lab - Buildings as a living lab for climate-neutral, needs-based and affordable housing
Within ÖWG, climate protection and sustainability are strategically anchored in renovation and densification projects. A comprehensive, climate-neutral renovation concept had been developed for a specific pilot property in Graz in an open, co-creative innovation process. The building becomes a living lab in which new solutions are tested in the everyday lives of the residents.
Climate Quarter Melk
Radical and comprehensive transformation of a city quarter in the small town of Melk, Lower Austria, involving the areas of urban planning, landscape architecture, traffic planning and co-creation - demonstrated by the implementation and rededication of a parking lot to an urban, inner-city climate forest within project life-time.
Climate neutrality roadmap Feldkirch
Feldkirch has already implemented important measures in the field of climate and energy policy. The city is a member of a KEM and KLAR region and has been a very active e5-municipality since 2005.
Climate prevention model Feldbach 1.0
In Austria, Feldbach counts to the active players in the field of climate policy. It has already implemented numerous projects in the areas of climate protection and energy.
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.
Co-Housing Gutenberg: Integrated Sector Coupling for Shared Living, Energy, and Mobility
The "CoHoGutenberg" project aims to establish a sustainable co-housing model in the rural community of Gutenberg, Styria, by combining sufficiency principles with state-of-the-art energy technologies.
Cooperative Living Volkersdorf (KooWo - Volkersdorf) - sufficiency, space and energy efficiency in the quarter
The jointly planned demonstration project "KooWo" in Volkersdorf aims at reaching sufficiency as well as energy and CO2 reductions in a holistic way. System boundaries are shifted in order not to look only at energy consumption in buildings, relating to unit of floor space, but to consider all use of resources and relating it to persons and social communities.
DALEC - Day- and Artificial Light with Energy Calculation
In the course of DALEC an online concept evaluation tool for architects, building engineers, lighting designers and building owners was developed. Although easy to use, the software accounts for the complex thermal and light processes in buildings and allows a simple evaluation of heating, cooling and electric lighting loads. Not only energy, but also user behavior were considered (e.g. in terms of glare protection) and visual and thermal comfort were evaluated. This novel and innovative, holistic approach makes sustainable and energy efficient building design possible for new buildings as well as refurbishment.
DESIREE - Decarbonisation and fighting energy poverty through energy communities
The number of poor people is steadily increasing, while climate change requires our full attention. DESIREE addresses these two issues and explores the potential of energy communities (ECs) as a vehicle for affordable energy, sustainable housing and clean mobility for all parts of the population.
Designing Synergies. Spatial and Energetic Transformation Scenarios for Small Towns and Municipalities Using the Example of the Wagram Region (Lower Austria).
An interdisciplinary exploratory project that synergistically analyses strategies for the activation of vacant buildings and the potential for the formation of small-scale energy communities. The starting point is student projects from the Institute of Architecture and Design, TU Wien, for four municipalities in the Wagram region. On this basis, an interdisciplinary team of experts is developing a concept for a synergy cluster focussing on spatial energy planning, building physics, the circular economy and social innovation.
DieWärmePioniere - Participatory climate transformation roadmap as basis for a demo district in the gas-supplied Kahlenbergerdorf
Development of a transformation roadmap for the decarbonization of a neighborhood and implementation of a subarea. Securing acceptance of the project and raising awareness through an active participation process of the population and the establishment of an energy community for heat supply.
E3 - Energy, Equity, Equality
Identification of barriers faced by specific groups in utilizing key energy transition technologies in communal and urban settings, including smart home, electric mobility, and energy communities. The results serve as a foundation for the development of inclusive and socially just technologies.
ECO-Transformation - Energy transformation through community building, sufficiency and serial solutions using the example of the "Cottage District"
Combining technical and environmental-psychological expertise to develop a transformation process towards a climate-neutral neighbourhood based on the methods of community building, sufficiency potential and serial implementation solutions using the example of the Cottage Quarter. Preparation of the serial implementation of the developed solutions and the transformation process.
ESG-STADTLABOR as a driver of technology and innovation for the climate-neutral city
The primary objective of the ESG-STADTLABOR is to lay the foundations for ESG-compliant urban development and urban administration, to develop innovative strategies that support sustainable and socially urban development, while increasing efficiency and trustworthiness in administration.
ESSBAR – Edible balcony gardens for retrofit – Vertical Greening Technologies for the City
Demonstration of an affordable, resource-saving and innovative balcony system with integrated edible vertical gardens and rainwater management. Considering the needs of residents for green outdoor spaces and the active participation of residents are an important part of the project.
EWV4EnergyTransition - Concrete Contributions to the Urban Energy Transition Using the Example of Properties Owned by the Evangelischer Waisenversorgungsverein Wien
The project addresses key challenges in expanding renewable energy and establishing renewable energy communities within densely built urban areas. The aim is to clearly identify these challenges first and subsequently develop effective solutions through an inclusive and gender-sensitive communication strategy.
