WattsOK? Robotics and AI Enabled Reuse of PV

WattsOK? optimizes reuse/recycle decisions for used photovoltaic (PV) modules via automation, incl. optical inspection-based decision-AI, electrical measurements, and robotic PV connector exchange for reuse. With this, the project addresses the expected increase in used PV modules. The project aims to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of reuse/recycling decision processes, extending the lifetime of modules through reuse, reducing waste, and promoting a circular economy within the photovoltaic sector.

Wiener Neustadt Climate neutral

Wiener Neustadt as a pioneering city, is making a conscious and ambitious transition towards climate neutrality. This complex transformation requires different measures. The measures shall both be developed in-house or developed by others and transferred to Wiener Neustadt. The effect of the entire bundle of measures from the different areas (e.g. governance, implementation districts, learning environment or energy, mobility, buildings, etc.) is subject to fact-based climate monitoring.

WohnMOBIL - Innovative living and transport options in areas with high settlement pressure

The objective of the WohnMOBIL project is the promotion of a land-, cost- and traffic saving settlement development and a change of transport priorities (priority of eco-mobility). This shall be reached by the transfer of innovative living concepts like "transitory living", until now mainly used in urban areas, to suburban-rural areas and the interrelation with needs-oriented multimodal mobility concepts.
