Green SandboxBuilder - Regulatory sandboxes in the field of sustainable construction and renovation

In the "Green SandboxBuilder" project, for the first time in Austria, the need for regulatory sandboxes for ecologically sustainable and climate-effective projects in the building sector had been systematically explored. The implementation of regulatory sandboxes in the Austrian construction sector can contribute to decisively accelerating the introduction of technological, procedural and social innovations and thus to achieving the sustainability goals.

GreenDeal4Real - Improving the thermal comfort in mixed-use areas through cost-effective green infrastructure

In Vienna's 22nd district, a mixed-use construction project was used as an experimental space to simulate the effects of green structures and analyse their implementation in a real planning environment. The simulations, the planning laboratory and close cooperation with the developer made it possible to take microclimatic effects into account as early as the planning stage and to optimally compensate for the negative effects of additional sealing through greening.

GreenPlusSchool@urban - Highly efficient facade and roof greening in combination with PV; optimal solution for energy efficiency in overall environmental consideration

In this project, different building-greening systems and plant/substrate types, combined with various PV modules, had been examined on a Viennese school. The influence on the hygrothermal behaviour of the building, energy-saving potential, humidity, shading, noise reduction, water retention and heat island effect are being scientifically explained. The students of the school will also be involved.

GreenTech-Renovation - Energetic Renovation of Glass Buildings of Architectural Value

The focus of the GreenTech-Renovation project was to find innovative solutions for the energetic renovation of architecturally valuable buildings with a high proportion of glass. A future-oriented building physics concept that includes the use of alternative forms of energy had been developed for this purpose. With ecological and social commitment, an intelligent usage concept could strengthen the energetic renovation concepts and guarantee their sustainability. The 10-Rs of the circular economy (Refuse, Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Refurbish, Remanufacture, Repurpose, Recycle, Recover) will serve as a guideline.

GrünStattGrau – Innovations for Greening Cities "The green living laboratory"

GrünStadtGrau represents the holistic of competence for green building technologies such as green roofs and living walls in Austria. It generates impulses for urban green infrastructure on buildings and links innovative products and projects, supports through know-how and analysis for implementation processes. GrünStattGrau guides urban and participatory strategies from development to implementation.

Gründerzeit with future - sub project 2: Foundations and feasibility studies

Documentation of available knowledge on the renovation of historical buildings ("Gründerzeitgebäude") as an input for the preparation of 5 demonstration projects as well as the development of an accompanying monitoring system within the scope of the project "Gründerzeit with future".

Gründerzeit with future - subproject 3: Historical window and façade components

Currently there are no energetical and aesthetical windows in high quality. Two types of windows were developed that have high standards regarding design and energetical and constructional performance.

Gründerzeit with future - subproject 5: Documentation and monitoring

The main aim is the documentation and monitoring of the demonstration projects within the scope of the project "Historical buildings of tomorrow" with regard to the technical implementation, investment and operation costs and to the energetic performance. All demonstration projects will be accompanied by an evaluation process regarding occupants' satisfaction and the refurbishment process. Beyond that, legal constraints for innovative refurbishment of historical buildings will be documented and proposals for adaptations of the rental law and refurbishment subsidy schemes will be developed.

HEAT - Heating Paint Based De-icing System for Drive Components and Aircraft Wings

The aim of the HEAT project was to develop a special heating paint as the basis for a lightweight, simple and flexible de-icing system for aircraft. This de-icing system, which is intended for both anti-icing and de-icing procedures, is intended to increase the safety of the aircraft through high damage tolerance and, at the same time, to be particularly energy-saving due to the lower system weight and efficient energy conversion.
