Large pit thermal energy storages are needed to render district heating systems full flexibility with renewable heat coming from a variety of sources. Improved efficiency, lowered costs and shorter realisation time will improve the market uptake of these storages.
The project supports the analysis and introduction of the Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) in Austria using demonstration buildings and provides scientific support for the Austrian test phase.
How can the entire energy demand of a brewery, i.e. steam as well as electricity and hot water, be sourced from renewable sources and as flexibly as possible?
In the project the focus lies on technology development and demonstration for CO2 emission reduction and recycling in four European industrial hubs. AEE INTEC is focussing on membrane distillation for the recovery of valuable substances from industrial wastewater.
As part of the ERA-Net SES project "S-GeoHeat", AEE INTEC is designing a low-temperature district heating network for the cities of Havza and Ladik in Turkey by integrating geothermal energy and industrial waste heat.
Within the "Fossil Phase Out" project, a guideline is being developed to provide municipalities, cities, and regions, particularly climate and energy model regions, with instructions for a systematic expansion and decarbonization of district heating networks.
The flagship project uses five large-scale, prototype model solutions and concrete implementations to test the phase-out of fossil fuels for industry
The overall objective of the SUPPORT DHC project is to support a fast implementation of low-grade renewable energy and waste heat for district heating and cooling in Europe.
As part of the research project, standardized processes for EU taxonomy-compliant renovations of the Austrian building stock are being developed based on five reference projects.
In the NextGES project, energy services "Monitoring & Visualization", "Automatic Fault Diagnosis" and "Model Predictive Control" are planned to be developed by using physical and machine learning methods under the user-centred design.
