Fit4NEB_Linz - Sommerfeld Ebelsberg: NEB-Neighbourhood development sustainable, aesthetic, participatory
Building on the previous planning and participation processes, sustainable, aesthetic and participatory development principles should be defined, and an New European Bauhaus (NEB) quality assurance process set up. Furthermore, implementation projects that are suitable for the EU funding program Horizon Europe should be designed.
Gemma K! - Pilot initiative “Gemeinschaf(f)t Klimaschutz”
In three Styrian climate pioneer cities, citizens are empowered to establish climate protection communities as multipliers in their respective contexts (e.g. associations) and to join others in taking action for the climate.
NEB-Tischlerei-Melk - Development of a former joinery site into a multipliable European lighthouse NEB neighbourhood
The former production site of the Fürst Möbel GmbH shall be transformed into a climate-neutral, multifunctional, scalable mixed-use NEB city quarter. This quarter called “Tischlerei Melk” is intended to achieve the highest ambition levels of the NEB compass and to position and represent Austria strongly in this context. As the area is located next to the world-famous Abbey of Melk, the project has the potential to become an internationally known best-practice solution.
National ‘governance matrix’ for the mapping and display, optimization, and funding of spatial and urban planning across institutions (BW STMX STB)
Development of an interactive governance matrix for the nationwide mapping, registration and optimization of programs and funding tools for spatial planning at every scale. By creating transparency as well as placing existing policies and governance tools in relation to one another, the matrix offers an overview across departments and institutions that allows synergies to be utilized and gaps to be closed.
Path to the Future (WEG zur Zukunft) - The Path to Implementing a Climate-Resilient Future in Condominium Ownership
The research project "WEG zur Zukunft / Path to the Future" examines the low renovation rates of condominium owners' associations (WEGs) in Austria and the associated communicative, regulatory, organizational, and financial challenges. In collaboration with the affected stakeholders – primarily owners and property management companies – foundations for solutions are being developed through a co-creative process that can assist in the path toward implementation.
MokiG: Monitoring for climate-neutral buildings
The aim is to develop and implement an innovative monitoring concept to demonstrate the achievement of climate neutrality in buildings. A central element here is the integration and linking of various data sources. The basis for this is a data mesh structure, artificial intelligence and the creation of digital twins. Finally, the methodology will be tested on real buildings and discussed with users.
NEBKritQ - New European Bauhaus Quality Criteria for Sustainable Urban Development
Development of quality criteria and process proposals for sustainable urban development based on the dimensions of the New European Bauhaus (ecological sustainability, aesthetics, social inclusion), which can be used for the evaluation as well as for the project development and application of urban development projects.
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.
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.
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.
