IEA IETS Task 19: Electrification in the industry

Elektrifizierung der Industrie: Österreichische Forschungspartner treiben gemeinsam mit internationalen Experten die Transformation hin zu erneuerbaren, klimafreundlichen Energiesystemen voran.

Oscillate4Cycle – Advancing Membrane Distillation and Filtration for Circular Economy and Industrial Water Recovery

Innovative net-flow concepts for membrane processes to improve high-solids wastewater treatment, cutting water and energy use while enabling resource recovery for a circular industrial future.

IEA Task 17: Membraneprocesses in Biorefineries

Biorefineries are essential for the transition from fossil resources to a bio-based industry. The IEA IETS Task 17 (24-26) promotes the exchange of knowledge between research, industry and membrane manufacturers to strengthen energy- and resource-efficient membrane processes in biorefineries within the Austrian research landscape.

IEA UsersTCP Empowering All: Just and Inclusive Energy Transitions

Gender-specific data on the behaviors, values, dynamics, and roles of private energy users is essential for integrating gender and intersectionality issues into energy and climate policy and implementing effective inclusive measures to address the challenges with regards to energy poverty and a just energy transition.

Renomize – Renovation with automation and optimization of processes and products

Hitzinseln Feldbach – Synergetische Maßnahmen gegen Überhitzung und Starkregen zur Vorbereitung eines F&E&I Vorhabens in Feldbach

Analyse und Bewertung der Wirkungen sowie Kosten-Nutzen-Verhältnisse von synergetischen Maßnahmen hinsichtlich Über­hitzung und Stark­regen in Städten. Darauf aufbauend wird ein Umsetzungs­plan für eine anschließende Demon­stration in Feld­bach erarbeitet, der in vielen ähnlichen Städten zum Einsatz kommen kann.

TESSERACT – Thermal energy storage as sensible energy reservoir in activated terrain

Storage technologies that can store and release both electricity and heat
have great potential for the future renewable energy system. In TESSERACT, underground high-temperature storage systems
(UHTS) based on the Carnot battery are being developed.

Fernwärme-Ausbau Leibnitz Tillmitsch

Development, evaluation, and detailed planning of expansion scenarios for the future district heating supply in Tillmitsch and Leibnitz

Cornerstone – Combined technologies for water, energy and solute recovery from industrial process streams.

CORNERSTONE focuses on water, energy, and solute recovery, targeting end-users in the Steel-, Pulp and Paper-, and Chemical Industry. It is highly important rendering them circular to achieve climate neutrality goals at the EU level by 2050, and to enhancing their global competitiveness.

IEA IETS Task 19: Electrification in the industry

IEA IETS Task 19 deals with the electrification of industry by converting processes that were previously powered by fossil fuels. Electrification can lead to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions if electricity from renewable energies is used.
