Wärmezukunft Steyr - Innovative Models for Climate-Neutral Heat Supply in Steyr
The project aims to establish the foundation for a climate-neutral, socially inclusive, and economically viable heating and cooling system in a pioneer city. It combines technical planning with governance approaches and the development of business and operator models. A special focus is placed on anergy networks, which - despite high upfront investments - offer strong potential for low-temperature, dual-purpose heating and cooling supply.
ZEBdemo - Development and demonstration of a scalable zero emission building for the realization of climate-neutral cities
The ZEBdemo project is developing and demonstrating a scalable zero-emission building that drastically reduces CO2 equivalent emissions during the construction phase by using building materials such as clay bricks and straw insulation. At the same time, operational emissions are minimized through an intelligent, data-driven energy management system.
ZQ3Demo - Implementation of urban Future Quarters including stakeholder integration and legally and economically replicable solutions
ZQ3Demo accompanies three innovative urban quarters in Vienna to demonstrate and further develop ecologically and economically sustainable solutions for the implementation of Plus-Energy-Quarters (PEQ) on the basis of real-life examples.
ZplusB - Zinzendorfgasse plus Brunngasse – Joint user groups in a historic building block in Graz
The exploratory project ZplusB is developing an innovative renovation approach that is jointly supported by owners and user groups. The aim is to develop a cooperation agreement as a basis for investment in the renovation.
Zukunftshof - Zukunftshof Rothneusiedl - Crystallization point of a climate model district
Transdisciplinary expert networking to develop a structural, thermal, and energy-efficient renovation concept, as well as a master plan with innovative energy, monitoring, green space, and agricultural utilization concepts. The result serves as a source of ideas for contemporary revitalization and forms the basis for the implementation of the demonstration project.
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.
cityclimAIte - Study on AI applications to achieve and support climate-neutral cities
The central task of this study is to provide decision-makers with a comprehensive overview and to derive recommendations for the efficient use and benefits of AI based on the estimated effects. The aim is to strengthen national value chain in this field of technology through appropriate, supportive framework conditions.
crowd2raum - Participatory co-financing models for socially innovative and sustainable reactivation for vacancies
As part of the exploratory project "crowd2raum", existing funding and support programmes are being combined with existing crowdfunding mechanisms (imGrätzl.at/WeLocally.at platform) to create a co-financing model for vacancy activation. This will be developed and tested in practice through the activation of four vacant spaces in the base zone in the defined pilot areas in Vienna and Graz.
fERNkornSAN – decarbonization and renovation with renewable materials of the "Gründerzeit"-building Fernkorngasse 41
Using the example "Gründerzeitgebäude" in Fernkorngasse 41, 1100 Vienna, technical challenges and issues related to phasing out gas and oil as well as adapting to climate change are investigated. A particular focus is placed on the use or resource-efficient and ecological building materials and highly efficient technologies. The results should be the basis for the use for further projects.
iLESS - Intelligent load profile analysis to maximize self-consumption of solar power
The goal is to reconstruct the individual contributions of various devices from existing load profile curves. This problem is of fundamental importance in the context of maximizing self-consumption of solar power by private households.
kLimanEutral2040 - Creation of a climate neutrality roadmap for the municipality of Leoben
Leoben stands out for its blend of tradition and innovation. The city is already deeply engaged in numerous climate-related projects that are closely coordinated. These initiatives form the foundation and motivation for implementing the proposed R&D service.
lowTEMP4districtheat - Reduction of the system parameters of heating networks for the integration of renewable heat sources using soft sensors
Analysis of the use of soft sensors in addition to selective real measurements for the complete recording of real-time parameters of heating networks. The data obtained enable detailed grid simulations with low computing power requirements and form the basis of a strategy for lowering the grid temperatures and feeding in decentrally generated heat.
m-hub - a web-based data hub for collection and query of material compositions of the building stock of the City of Vienna
The project creates a web-based platform with which the material composition of buildings within the city of Vienna can be entered and queried. In the background, a prediction model based on artificial intelligence is trained to make forecasts for buildings that have not yet been cataloged.
plusenergy-FLAGSHIP: Plus-Energy office building 2.0 - the viadonau headquarters
In the course of this project, various innovations towards a "Plus-Energy Standard 2.0" are to be implemented and combined in an overall concept for the new viadonau headquarters (via donau - Österreichische Wasserstraßen-Gesellschaft m.b.H.).
reSOILution - Utilization of excavated soil for the production of earthen building materials
Excavated materials generate large amounts of waste and represent a key lever for resource conservation and waste reduction in the construction sector. The reSOILution project explores how excavated soil can be circularly processed into earthen building materials to reduce CO₂ emissions and promote a sustainable construction industry.
scaleFLEX - Scalable method for optimizing the energy flexibility of districts
Development of a decentrally organized automation method for improving the demand-side flexibility options of buildings and districts. The utilized data-driven algorithm promise high scalability and therefore low installation and operating costs. The developed method will be validated using different building types (high-tech office buildings, low-tech office buildings, residential buildings).
see-it - Camera based, user centric daylight control system for optimized working conditions
In the project technologies in the field of building construction and building automation are being researched for quality and performance improvements in the workplace. The aim is to individualize the control of sun protection to the people who need to be protected from glare and overheating and hope to see through.
sewageENERGYrecovery - Performance comparison of different wastewater heat recovery systems for renewable heat generation
Independent detailed testing of the performance and efficiency of different wastewater heat recovery systems in actual operation by analysing measurement data. Evaluation of the analysed systems with regard to their optimal application possibilities.
sustAIn4Build - AI competence for sustainable building management in climate neutral cities
The objective of the project sustAIn4Build is to increase energy efficiency and sustainability in the building sector by using artificial intelligence (AI). Industry-specific training programs support Austrian companies to develop a workflow for integrating AI technologies into their processes, enabling them to develop resource-saving, cost-effective and sustainable solutions. This strengthens their competitiveness and contributes to the achievement of European decarbonisation goals.
