Concepts for ’low-tech’ ventilation systems in large-volume residential buildings and their user comfort.
The project aims to increase the integration of ventilation systems with heat recovery into social and multifamily housing. It will be investigated how central and semi-central ventilation systems are to be optimized, meaning equipped with simply distribution, installation, control and servicing, and also developing prefabricated components.
The experiences with the first wave of applications should lead to simplified (‘low-tech’ ventilation) and optimized innovative solutions with high user’s comfort and high energy efficiency. For field implementation three different varieties of optimized ventilation systems with heat recovery will be designed, simulated/calculated and as a minimum two of them tested in practical operation.
SolarGrids
Solar assisted energy supply systems: Opportunities and barriers in a long-term, integrative view
The project deals with the assessment of the integration of solar thermal plants to representative Austrian energy supply systems. Dynamic, long-term (up to 2050) modeling of interactions with building refurbishment and a decentralized heat and electricity generation will be realized. The modeling results and international case studies are used to derive conclusions about options for energy policies. Intensive involvement of stakeholders is considered as an integral part of the project.
IEA EBC Annex 56 – Cost Effective Energy and Carbon Emission Optimization in Building Renovation
The Annex aims at developing a new methodology to enable cost effective renovations of existing buildings while optimizing energy consumption and carbon emissions reduction. The main objective is to support decision makers and multipliers by the evaluation of the energy efficiency, cost effectiveness and acceptance (by users, owners and decision makers) of renovation measures towards both the nearly-zero emission and the nearly-zero energy objectives.
Smart ABC
The EPBD recast 2010 targets „nearly zero energy buildings“.Smart Energy Efficient Active Buildings and Building Clusters
This low amount of energy is to be covered by energy from renewable energy sources. The project “Smart ABC” analyses a variety of relevant solution sets regarding the building performance and the renewable based energy supply options. Energetic and ecological impacts will be analyzed in order to optimize the integration of renewable energy technologies in building standards and to find answers how to depict a building cluster regarding standards and tools.
Solar Campaign 2012 for Styrian Municipalities
In the project a solar-calculator was developed and consultations for the use of solar thermal collectors for hot water and heating took place.
Green Brewery – Zero fossil CO2 emissions for breweries
Within the project Green brewery the emissions of fossil and climate-relevant CO2 from the production of beer could be significantly reduced and even set to Zero, by development and implementation of a methodological optimisation approach.
+ERS – Plus Energy Network Reininghaus Süd
Key objective is the development of a comprehensive energy concept regarding urban, thermal and building engineering for an entire city district. An overall energy master plan will be integral part of the “Charta Reininghaus” (agreement for the development of buildings) and will set preliminary standards for future investors.
PROMISE DEMO IF
Production with solar thermal energy fort he company Assmann Ladenbau GmbH
The project PROMISE DEMO – IF cover the realization of a large scale solar thermal system for the company Assmann Ladenbau GmbH, the control of the stagnation behaviour of large solar thermal systems, the selection and implementation of high-temperature heat pumps for industrial applications and the monitoring of these implemented systems.
