In combination with thermal refurbishment of existing buildings as well as greening, PV, water management, conversion of street space and mobility with the integration of resilient energy infrastructure as well as the application of a customized financing model and a service offer for multiplicability.
MidSKliN – Minimally invasive dynamic rehabilitation taking into account climate change adaptation, CO₂ emissions and grid compatibility
The project aims to develop and demonstrate minimal renovation measures at the building envelope level using modular, technically easy-to-implement building technology solutions for decisive CO2 reduction and climate adaptation in urban building stock.
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.
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.
NutOpIA Klagenfurt - Optimisation of indoor and outdoor use in Klagenfurt
The NutOpIA Klagenfurt project aims to drive the transformation to a climate-neutral city forward by optimising the use of spaces and areas both internally and externally.
Path to the future DEMO: Climate-Ready Future in Condominium Ownership - The path to Socio-Ecological Transformation
The project integrates technical, legal, economic, and social science approaches to develop and pilot practical, transferable tools that support and qualify key stakeholders involved in renovation and decarbonization projects within condominium owners’ associations (COAs, in German: Wohnungseigentümergemeinschaften, or short WEGs). The aim is to activate, empower, and strengthen the participating actors throughout the entire renovation process as joint drivers of the energy transition in the existing building stock.
PersonAI - User-Centered AI-based energy services built on personal preference models
Conduct a large-scale, long-term study with 40-50 people to create personal comfort profiles to increase comfort in buildings. The personal comfort profiles will then be fed back into the building control system as input variables in a proof-of-concept.
Q-Hub Villach - Climate neutrality and climate resilience as integral components of urban development instruments in Villach
The project aims to position the city of Villach as a model for systematic, climate-neutral and climate-resilient urban development by establishing the Q-Hub as a central hub between administration, research, business and civil society. This hub will develop methods, processes and standards and integrate them into urban planning instruments.
Quartiershub Itzling - Innovation Lab for the Development of the Salzburg Itzling District Hub
Establishment of an urban district hub for coordinated, integrated, and socially inclusive neighborhood development and climate-responsive transformation. The development and close integration of an actors-, project-, data-, and knowledge-hub enables the piloting and evaluation of innovative, transferable solutions for integrated neighborhood development.
REFUGIUM – Innovative Use of Church Infrastructure for Inclusive and Climate-Resilient Neighborhood Development
REFUGIUM is developing a new collaborative approach (public-private partnership) between the City of Klagenfurt and the Catholic Church. In four pilot neighborhoods, innovative climate protection measures will be jointly identified and examined. This exploratory phase serves as the basis for planned demonstration projects and thus represents an important contribution to the Smart City climate strategy and to the EU Cities Mission "100 climate-neutral and smart cities by 2030".
RENO moveup - Mobilisation, Networking, and Practical Implementation for Climate-Neutral, Life-Cycle-Oriented Construction with Impact
RENOmoveup aims to build an active community that drives the transition to a climate-neutral, life cycle-oriented construction sector through strong mobilisation and clearly structured networking and knowledge-sharing formats. To achieve this, key EU directives are translated into practical, accessible formats, concrete implementation strategies are developed, and these are supported by roadmaps, pilot groups, and factsheets.
RST Reloaded - Flexibilisation of the urban power supply system by adapting the existing ripple control system
"RST reloaded" utilises existing ripple control technology (RST) to activate flexible loads in a targeted manner to benefit the grid and thus create capacities for more renewable energy in urban electricity grids. The aim is to analyse technical potential and user acceptance in equal measure and validate them in an implementation. The approach is scalable, legally compliant and transferable to other municipal utilities.
RaumCoop 2.0 - Space Cooperative, a systematic operational model for activating unused or underutilized spaces.
The RaumCoop organizes the sharing of spaces, mobilizes underutilized spaces for non-residential purposes in the ground floor area, and makes them available for temporary use at affordable conditions. The goal of the project is to establish this non-profit organization.
ReNew Lindenplatz - Resolving key transformation conflicts for a climate-resilient redevelopment of the Lindenplatz district in Kapfenberg
The exploratory project ReNew Lindenplatz develops a transferable planning approach for climate-neutral and climate-resilient small and medium-sized cities, using the historic old-town district around Lindenplatz and Hauptplatz in Kapfenberg as a case study. Through interdisciplinary analyses, participatory processes and scenario-based development of alternatives, an integrated transformation concept for the district will be developed. The results will form the basis for a subsequent demonstration project and provide transferable solution approaches for other small Austrian pioneer cities.
ReSpace – Reclaiming Spaces
ReSpace is developing an AI-based model for identifying, categorizing, and activating sealed areas. Existing data sources (aerial and satellite images, mobile network data, land registry entries) are integrated and enhanced with dynamic analysis to derive evidence-based recommendations for action.
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.
SYSPEQ - Systemische Lösung zum Betrieb von Plusenergiequartieren
Full-scale planning concepts for positive energy districts (PEDs) and their operation as energy communities (ECs). The focus is on the implementation in the existing building stock, especially in the area of social/non-profit housing. Financing options for renewable generation units, planning and operation of a PED (especially as an EC), marketing opportunities for surplus electricity and the development of an information and networking platform are part of this project. A special highlight is the practical proof-of-concept in Fuchsenloch, which is a social housing quarter of Sozialbau.
Stadtwandel - sustainable transformation and climate change adaptation of town and city centers
Stadtwandel aims to initiate sustainable transformation in small cities and municipalities.
SuperQ3 – Neighborhood demonstration of a superblock in the Dreiheiligen district, Innsbruck
SuperQ3 is the first scientifically supported demonstration of the superblock concept in Innsbruck as a model for climate-neutral neighborhood development. The project combines traffic calming, improved environmental and residential quality, and participatory transformation in the district of Dreiheiligen. It will deliver transferable urban modules, practical guidelines, and evidence-based findings for further neighborhoods.
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.
