EINSTEIN – EXPERT SYSTEM FOR AN INTELLIGENT SUPPLY OF THERMAL ENERGY IN INDUSTRY
In general, project schedules for energy audits are rather narrow, most of the time available data is not sufficient to provide a clear evaluation. However, for a first energy audit, industries want to have a clear proposition on the energy saving potential with a minimum of cost effort. Due to that, a special auditing tool […]
Low Carbon Agro Industry
The objective of the project is to reduce the environmental impact of the food processing agro-industry in Macedonia through the development and implementation of low carbon production. The project will contribute to enable companies to improve their productivity through efficient resource use and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The project is divided into two phases; during […]
Energy audit Stiegl brewery
In this project, the energy balance of the brewery is analysed, through a distinct methodology during an energy audit. With this as a basis, an implementation concept is derived, for significantly reducing CO2 emissions, for the whole beer production. Furthermore, the potentials for further developments in increasing energy efficiency and the applicability of renewable energy […]
Projekt „HeatBoxQuality – Dezentrale Hydraulikstationen auf dem Prüfstand”
Die Wärmeversorgung von Reihenhausanlagen, Geschoßwohnbauten und Heime über „Zwei-Leiter-Netze“ in Verbindung mit dezentralen Hydraulikstationen (sogenannte Wohnungsstationen) gewann in den letzten Jahren aufgrund zahlreicher technischer Vorteile (geringste Rücklauftemperaturen, geringste Wärmeverluste, höchste Wasserhygiene, höchster Komfort, etc.) und in Folge von Markteinführungsprogrammen zunehmend an Bedeutung. Dieses Wärmeverteilsystem ist im Neubau als auch im Bestand einsetzbar, ist grundsätzlich mit […]
e80^3-Buildings – Renovation Concepts for Residential Buildings to Plus-Energy Buildings
Starting point / motivation The existing building stock offers a major potential to reduce our energy demand. It would be necessary however to rehabilitate all existing buildings. But as a matter of fact it can be stated that there are also buildings which are not that worth to be maintained as sustainable for continued existence […]
WEX-RES Renewable energy systems in Austria and their economic growth rates and export potentials
The project is analyzing all relevant Austrian renewable energy technologies including biomass (solid, liquid and gasoline), photovoltaics, geothermal energy, solar thermal energy, hydro power, wind power and heat pumps. Energy technologies that cannot be defined as dedicated to one of the above mentioned but combine two or more single areas (e.g. cogeneration, trigeneration, solar supported […]
Key project: e80^3 – Buildings
The retrofit concept is based on energy efficiency measures (highly insulated, prefabricated active energy roof and energy facade elements with built-in building service units), on a high ratio of renewable energy sources and on an intelligent integration of energy supply in heat and electric power networks. The concept contributes significantly to the achievements of three […]
Oekosan´09 – International symposium for high-quality energetic renovation of large-scale buildings
Starting point / motivation A major part of the energy consumption of the member states of the European Union is consumed by the building sector. Especially in the Central-European moderate climate zones nearly one third of the total energy consumption is spent on space heating. In the field of building renovation the potential savings for […]
Potenzial der Solarthermie in Europa
Compact Thermal Energy Storage: Material Development for System Integration (IEA SHC Task42 Storage-Materials)
This task deals with advanced materials for latent and chemical thermal energy storage, and excludes materials related to sensible heat storage. Sensible materials for heat storage are only used as reference cases. The task deals with these materials on three different scales: The project is organized in a matrix-like structure and is divided in the […]
