In industrial production for alpine skis, epoxy resins of fossil origin and pre-impregnated glass fiber reinforcements are processed today. Innovations that replace environmentally critical materials in skis with biogenic substitute materials with an improved environmental balance have so far been limited to the production of small series. This circumstance motivated the consortium to develop a solution for a circular bioeconomy with the HempSki project, which will also make industrial ski production from renewable raw materials and waste streams possible in the future.

The top level objective of the ICE GENESIS project is to provide the European aeronautical industry with a validated new generation of 3D icing engineering tools (numerical simulation and test capabilities), addressing App C, O and snow conditions, for safe, efficient and cost effective design and certification of future aircraft and rotorcraft.

Haus der Zukunft

The refurbishment of existing building stock demands solutions within single units. Interior insulation is a suitable technology. The challenge is to bring multiple demands and requirements together to create optimal solutions. Therefore it's necessary to arrange individual system components to form working model refurbishment solutions. The development of such solutions is the aim of the project. Not only durability and quality is to be ensured, but also user acceptance. Increasing the rate of refurbishments is the overall aim of the project.

The IEA 4E EDNA Platform aims to recommend measures to promote the energy efficiency of network connected devices, and to make them available to key stakeholders such as policy makers and product developers in the form of reports, policy briefs and tools. In various tasks the opportunities and the barriers for the promotion of energy efficiency measures are researched and analyzed. On this basis ENDA recommendations should support the design of regulations for energy efficient network connected devices.

Hydrogen drives are considered to be particularly important for energy-intensive applications in non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) applications. This will allow gaining a climate-effective contribution for decarbonisation of large construction and agricultural machinery. Based on the automotive sector H2 regulatory framework, the task is to develop the basis for the conformity requirements for hydrogen-powered mobile machinery and to identify approval strategies for highly mobile H2 refuelling suitable for construction sites.

AMF Task 66 will build on the work and results of AMF Task 63 on Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF). The Task will conduct workshops to exchange information and results on current research on SAF production and its application, as well as on related policy measures. This will enable the Task countries to better understand the state of the art, identify further research needs and derive recommendations for governments seeking to expand SAF production or use.

Internal combustion engines with renewable fuels are indispensable for the decarbonization of the hard-to-electrify industrial and transport sectors. The AMF TCP EATS Task is investigating effective exhaust aftertreatment technologies to achieve air quality comparable to electrified applications. Emissions are being analysed, suitable measurement methods identified and guidelines for limiting emissions developed.

Biomass combustion is an important technology for providing renewable energy worldwide. Almost half of the EU's energy consumption is used for heat, which, among other technologies, can be provided by biomass combustion in a climate-friendly manner. It is therefore a key technology for achieving national and international climate and energy goals. This project shall ensure the exchange of information on relevant topics in order to support the success of Austrian actors from industry and research.

Biomass combustion is an important technology for the provision of renewable energy worldwide. In addition to the climate-friendly supply of heat and electricity, biomass combustion offers market-ready solutions for net-negative emissions (carbon capture technologies). It therefore represents a key technology for achieving climate targets. This project aims to ensure the exchange of information on relevant topics and thus support the success of Austrian players from industry and research.
