IEA EBC Annex 94 – Validation and Verification of In-situ Building Energy Performance Measurement Techniques

Austria contributes to IEA EBC Annex 94 by standardising in situ methods such as the heat transfer coefficient and delivering reliable evidence to close the performance gap for retrofit and policy.

IEA ES Task 43 – Standardized use of building mass as storage for renewable energies and grid flexibility

The IEA Task 43 will standardise the use of building mass as thermal storage and make it usable for renewable energy integration and grid flexibility.

SPuRM – Storage Potential of Underground Rock Mass

Development of novel and improvement of existing approaches for constructing large underground heat storage systems in hard rock

Future Heat Highway – Supra-regional district heating networks for industrial waste heat integration

By 2050, all heat supplied by district heating networks must derive from renewable sources or industrial waste heat. Supra-regional district heating transport pipelines contribute to this, providing heat sustainably, efficiently and over wide areas.

ATESREF – Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage and re-injection using the Example of Fürstenfeld

Development and utilisation strategies of an aquifer storage facility for seasonal heat storage for heating networks in the Styrian basin at the site of Fürstenfeld

CFS-Audit – Circular Food System Audit

CFS-Audit is developing a methodology to identify valorization potentials of biogenic residues and to present cascading utilization concepts. The developed optimization method serves as the basis for a service offering for SMEs.

HP-SUBSCRIBE – Up-scaling High-Quality Heat Pump Installations in Leased Buildings via a Subscription Model and Cost-Effective Market Incentives

The goal is up-scaling the number of high-quality heat pump systems in buildings. To achieve this, a heat as a service model will be further developed and cost-effective market incentives will be implemented.

Energy4Bakery – The energy-efficient SME bakery of the future

How can the circular bakery of the future produce as resource-efficiently as possible? We are investigating why this does not require deep-freezing in our Energy4Bakery project.

Components for Thermal Energy Storage – IEA SHC Task74 Components for Thermal Energy Storage.

The Task74 work is aimed at improving the design methods for components for thermal energy storage, leading to faster component performance improvements.

IEA IETS Task 18: Digitalisierung, KI und verwandte Technologien für industrielle Energieeffizienz und THG Emissionsreduktion
