Citizens Acting on Mitigation Pathways through Active Implementation of a Goal-setting Network
Climate change is the challenge of our time and the direct participation of citizens is a significant approach to the solution. The project CAMPAIGNers aims to make low-carbon lifestyles a key part of the solution...
Industrial Excess Heat – Erhebung industrieller Abwärmepotentiale in Österreich
The INXS project aims to record and evaluate the existing waste heat potential of Austrian industry as completely as possible. In its tasks, the Energieinstitut focuses on the business models of the known implementations to...
Interregional heat transmission networks to enable industrial waste heat
As the electricity transmission network connects many generation, storage and consumption units, the current options for waste heat feed-in and interregional exchange are limited. Heat Highway is therefore investigating interregional heat transfer networks (HTN) that...
SDG STRIKER – Scoring Goals for Sustainability
SDG Striker aims to increase organizational capacity for good governance in grassroots sports organizations by supporting the implementation and communication of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It also aims to develop a shared understanding of...
Energy Efficiency through behaviour change transition strategies
ENCHANT – Energy Efficiency through behaviour Change Transition – is a project that aims to support the energy transition by testing the impact of interventions affecting energy consumption behaviour on a large-scale across Europe. The...
Cascade – A comprehensive toolbox for integrating low-temperature sub-networks in existing district heating networks
Low temperature district heating networks can very effectively utilize renewable heat sources such as solar or geothermal energy, ambient heat or low temperature waste heat. However, the vast majority of urban district heating networks operate...
Beurteilung von Advanced Materials in Emerging Solar Technologies unter besonderer Berücksichtig der Kreislaufwirtschaft
Novel photovoltaic technologies (“Emerging” PV technologies) enable the manufacturing of ultra-thin, flexible and lightweight solar cells that open up new areas of application (from building to medical technology). The inorganic / organic advanced materials used...
Zukünftige Entwicklung der Raumkühlung durch Klimawandel bis 2050
Based on the weather observations of the past decades and the calculation results of current climate models, significant increases in annual and seasonal mean temperatures are to be expected in Austria. There is already an...
New business models for innovative energy service bundles for residential consumers
Despite the high energy savings potential in the EU, the market for ESCOs in the residential sector is much less developed than in other sectors (e.g. industry or public/services). In addition to cross-sectoral barriers (e.g....
GReen power and Energy Efficiency iNvestments community-Financed for fOOTball buildings
Sports buildings represent a massive untapped potential for energy efficiency and renewable energy projects. However, accelerating the rate of sports building renovations requires innovative financing methods. The EU-funded GREENFOOT project will support this process by...
establishing Community Renewable Energy Webs
eCREW coordinates and supports the roll-out of an innovative scheme of household cooperation in energy management, addressing Community Renewable Energy Webs (CREWs), in which households jointly exploit household-level electricity generation and battery storage capacities and...
IEA SHC Task SHIP #3 – Solar Heat in Industrial Processes
The main objective of the task is to identify, verify and promote the role of SHIP plants (“Solar Heat in Industrial Processes”) as stand-alone systems and in integrated energy systems. Technical and non-technical barriers should...
IETS Annex 15: Industrielle Abwärmenutzung
As part of the IEA IETS Annex 15, potential for the use of waste heat and technologies for its integration are collected, bundled and processed through contributions from national research activities. This results in a...
IEA IETS Annex 19 Industrielle Elektrifizierung
Industrial electrification can make a major contribution to CO2 reduction. Annex goal is a knowledge transfer between the international and the state level. At national level, stakeholder involvement is aimed at clarifying the topic of...
Fully Integrated Reversible Solid oxide cell sysTem
In FIRST, a fully integrated reversible solid oxide cell (rSOC) system is being developed and tested in a living lab environment. The system can switch between water electrolysis and fuel cell operation on demand, resulting...
